NEW YORK swELTERs
Highest Temperature Reached During
Summer Is Recored

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 17.-After a respite
Of one day, the hot wave that swept
over New York last week, causing
scores of deaths and hundreds of cases
of prostrations, returned today with re-
newed intensity, the temperature being
by far the highest of the season.
The highest point reached was at 4
O'clock in the afternoon, when the
weather bureau thermometer touched
95 degrees. In the streets, however,
the heat was much greater, some ther-
mometers recording as high as 1O3.
While the heat was intense the air
was stirred by light breezes and the
general suffering was somewhat miti-
gated by the absence of the excessive
humidity that prevailed last week. 1t
was largely owing to this that only
two cases of death directly resulting
from the heat was reported. The total
number of prostrations for the whole
city was less than fifty. There was
little diminuation of the heat after
nightfall, the mercury standing at 81
degrees at IL p. m. There are no pros
poets tonight of any relief for several
days to come.
A number Of drivers helpers em-
ployed by the American Ice company
went on strike tonight and it is ex-
pected that the entire force of nearly
1000 men will decline to go out with
the wagons tomorrow morning. They
are paid $1.50 a day and claim that
during the hot spell they are compelled
to work from a. m, until 8 or p. m.
Demonstrations were made in many
pl4ces this evening by the men who had
quit and at several places there were
indications Of riot. The police, how
ever. kept the crowd in order.
