RAILROAD MEN
 TAKE VOTE ON
 GENERAL STRIKE
Mechanics Want Flat In crease of Four Gents an
 Hour.

New Haven, Feb. 21.-Failure on the part of Grand Lodge officers of the railroad departments, American Fed eration of Lab9R, to get conference with the officials of the New York. New Haven and Hartford railroad Saturday afternoon in New Haven may be the cause of starting a strike on all the railroads of the United States, Canada and Mexico. Strike votes are to be ordered this week in several branches of the railroad workers, after which another attempt at a conference will
 be made.
 Frank Jennings, vice president of the International Association of Ma chinists, announced in Springfield, Mass, Saturday night that the matter at stake was the request of the rail- road workers for a flat increase of 4 cens an hour for rnachinists, boiler makers, carmen, blacksTniths and helpers, sheet metal workers and cleo tricians. These men say that they have the support of the conductors. and trainmen, who are about to petit ton for the eight-hour day. MT. Jen- nings says that 80 per cent. of the mechanical departments are connect ed with the American Federation Of Labor, while 20 per cent. are affiliated
 with other organizations, and that ?, 800 men are involved in the contro- versy.
 At a meeting of the eastern branch of the Brotherhood of Railroad Sig
 nalmen of America on the New Haven ! system, held in Providence, R. l., Sat urday night the mem bers were at first unanimously in favor of taking a strike vote at once, but later decided to wait two weeks. The men on this 1 division of the system had sent in de- 1 nnands' for a fiat increase in wages of 10 per cent, but the reply of the
 company was to post notices to the effect that after January 20, the men would only work nine hours a. day with allowance of nine hours pay. The men connected with the Ameri- can Federation of Labor held a, meet ing in New Haven, Jan. 22, and the sentiment was in favor of an immedi-
 ate strike. Only the promise of a con l ference with officials of the road kept
 the men pacided. The railroad officials
 will not discuss the demands of the
 men except in an |'unomcia1 discus i sfon,'' unless representatives of the American Federation of Labor and the 1 American Railway Worker are pres 1 ent. This is said to be impossible, as the American Federation of Labor
 considers the American railway work
 CTS as an outlaw organization, which
 they say, represents only 10 per cent. i of the unslxilled railroad workers.
