Machinist's Strike Oyer.
The big strike of the machinists
on the Sent hern Knilyvay is over
and the fitX) machinists will go I aick
to work as fast as places can be
found for tlicin. Nonoti union men
who have been faithful to the company
will lie discharged to make
room for the strikers, however.
The machinists who return to work
gain nothing whatever, their only
consul ition being that they have
caused the railroad and tin* travelling
public a good deal of inconvenience.
They will get the same
wages and work the same hours as
before the st l ike.
However, tliey will appoint a
committee to confer further with
the railroad otfic nls for the purpose
of obtaining the demands
that were made at the time of the
strike last May. The eoiiferenees
which have taken place within
the last few weeks have resulted
in this. The representatives of the
! strikers have received assurances
that their committee would he
] well received after the strike was
formally ded ired oil'and they have
agreed upon this course.
The strikers were c intending
for two things principally. One
was a nine hour day instead of a
ten hour day, but ton hours pay,
and the other was a reduction of
the nuiqher of apprentices in tlje
shops to one apprentice to every
I '? machinists. Formerly, it appeals
1 the Southern Inul many more npprentices
than this.
Third V ice-President (lannon.of
! the Southern, refused t?? meet
those demands of the strikers ahold
one year aujo. and consequently
last May the t>00 union machinists
of the Soul hern Railway walked
out.
