that they would make no effort to
enter the international trophy race.

SAINT, the cross-channel flyer, would
be substituted as the third member
of the American team.
Hubert Latham lost control of his
aeroplane on the fifteenth lap and
narrowly escaped crashing into a
crowd of spectators and the club
house. He just managed to skim
over the heads of the crowd and by
jamming his plane upward finally
scraped over the top of the judges
stand.
The accident to Latham put the
French teSyza out of the running for
the cup.
Shortly after Latham S mishap the
wind freshened, and at 2 o'clock it
was blowing too strongly for any of
the remaining contestants to take a
chance in the air.
Ralph Johnston and Archie Hox-
sey, the rival Wright flyers, who on
Thursday afternoon bounced upward
into a windstorm so violent that 1t
blew them backward for many miles
at a height of more than mile, flew

Special by United Press Wire.

Jersey City, Oct. 29:-Shots were
exchanged in a strike riot near the
Erie station today, but no one was
injured. The several express compa-
MES whose wagon helpers are on
strike started today In q serious eff
fort to break the backbone of the
trouble. With that object in view
wagons were sent out under heavy
guard of special officers armed with
revolvers, rifles and big riot sticks
A train of eight wagons was held up
by mob and the guards fired over
the heads of the crowds. A free for
tall fight started, the mobs answering
the volley of bullets with missiles of
all kinds and several of the guards
were struck but not seriously hurt.
Mounted police rushed to the
scene and charged the mob and un-
der cover of this the wagons were
gotten aboard the ferryboat safely,
landed in New York and hurried to
the depot there. Intermittent war
fare between the strikers, the police
and strike breakers continued all
day. Half dozen strike-breakers
are in the hospital badly injured.

New York, Oct. 29:-The business
of the United States, Wells Fargo
and the Adams Express companies
Is practically at a standstill today
All of the terminals in New York,
Jersey City and Hobo n are stacked
with undeliyered packages. Long
trains of cars are jammed at the sid
ings leading into the depots filled
with goods, much Of 1t perishable,
waiting to be unloaded. Strikers
and strike breakers are fighting In
the vicinity of every terminal and
the police of the three cities are try
ing hard to maintain peace.
Up to the present no one has been
fatally hurt. There is likelihood
that If rioting continues Governor
Fort will send troops into Jersey City
to maintain order.
The strikers have succeeded In para
lying the express business in these
three cities.
. In Jersey City the strikers are in alb
solute command Of the situation. After
several futile attempts to send out
wagons the companies closed up their
barns and announced that nothing
more would be done until they found
men to work. Strike breakers in Jer-
sey City were waylaid and beaten by
the score.
A bunch of fifty strike breakers, who
had been brought over from Manhat-
tan through the McAdoo tube, got as
far as the street level at the Hender-
son street station and encountered a
great mob, armed with stones, lead
pipe, bottles and clubs. The fifty
strike breakers turned right around,
hustled back into the tube and return
TO New York.
In Manhattan the Adams Express
company did not attempt TO receive or
deliver packages from the Grand Cen
trail depot. The American Express
company employed 250 strike breakers
and 100 special policemen and began
to send out wagons. Each wagon was
manned by a driver, helper and five
special policemen, armed with clubs
and reyolyers Mounted and bicycle
the danger zone around the Grand
Central station, where 10 patroimen
were on duty.
Seventeen bruised and battered men
were treated at the Hudson street hos
pital. They were strike breakers from
Jersey City, and every one Of them
was painfully hurt. The police force
of Jersey City could not guarantee to
get them to hospitals there, so they
came to New York by ferry. 1t took
three surgeons more than an hour to
patch them up.
|, These men were attacked while they
were trying to take eight wagons from
the Fargo barns in Pavonia ave
nue. to the Erie ferry. Strikers way
laid them, blocked the wheels OF their
wagons with balesticks, dragged them
to the street and half killed them be
fore police reserves arrived.

to be the menu Of the penny lunch
con.
The expense attached to conduct
ing the lunch rooms is to be re-
duced to minimum. according to

to make the fireless cookers to be
used.
The cooking school teachers will

UNION HALL
BURNED down
LOSS ABOUT $15OO-SUPPOSED
TO HAVE BEEN WORK
OF INCENDIARY

About 10 O'Clock Tuesday even
ing fire was discovered raging in
Union hall. Just at this time the
streets and resorts were filled with
crowds discussing the election re-
turns, so that when the ominous
reports of revolver shots were
heard, and a moment later the
flames themselves were seen, there
were scores of willing hands to help
drag the hose carts to the scene,
says the Searchlight Bulletin.
Due to the distance of the hall
from the nearest hydrant-a two
inch plug-there was some delay in
| laying a line of hose sufficiently
long to reach the fire; also the
stream, coming through the long
length of hose, had little force.
However, it is very doubtful if the
building could have been saved un-
der the most favorable circum-
structure burned rapidly and was
a raging furnace within few min
utes.
The firemen did good work in
saving the adjoining home of John
t. Maggie, which, when a stream OF
water was brought into play, was
beginning to smoke and had all its
windows on the exposed side broken
by the intense heat
Mr.. Nagle was reading in his
home when his attention was at
tracted by the glare. Running
around to the rear of the building
he saw window had been broker

feet of the window, was burning

Many expressions of appreciation were received by the contest depart ment yesterday in reference to the double vote offer that will be ia effect until S:30 o'clock next Wcd- nesday night.
 The cont ntestants who expressed their satisfaction at the offer were one and all glad that they will rs- ceiye the double votes on all new subscriptions for the following rea- sons: The majority of the contest ants have many promises of sub scriptions which were being held un,. til some such offer went into effect, and now that the double vote offer has been announced they were loud in their praise of the same, and ex- pect it will be the means of their se- curing all promises of subscriptions that have been made by their friends the past few weeks.
 On the other hand, those who were particularly gratified at the offer were those who through one cause or another, have fallen back in the standings of the contestants. Some of the contestants have been i'll; others had different things to attend to that interfered with their secur- ing votes and subscriptions, and those have not as many votes to their credit today, as they and their friends would like to see opposite their names.
 Through this offer of double votes on new subscriptions the contestants so situated will be able before tae close of the week to take their place anon gthe leaders, and become seri- ous contenders for one of the nine Free Trips. And, taking everything into consideration the contestants were more than pleased with the :IeW offer and from the looks of things the coming week will be the great est of the entire contest in the mat ter of securing votes and subscrip- tions
 If every contestant will not only do as we'll this week, but little better than usual, they will materially in- crease their chances of being among the winners at the close. Start out this morning bright and early and outline your plans, so that at the end of the week all your pro-. mises of suhsc: iptions will have been collected and you will be just twice as strong i', the way of votes to your credit next Wednesday as you Dcw are.
 All the contestants give promise of coming in strong this week. and you.
