Ely to Launch Biplane From Cruiser
Birmingham.

Washington, Nov 1.-THE Navy
Department today appointed Monday
as the date for the aeroplane flight of
Aviator Ely from the deck of the
scout cruiser Birmingham. This, of
course, is contingent upon weather
conditions and should unfavorable
weather develop the flight will be
postponed until the conditions are
auspicious for the experiment.
The Birmingham with Ely and his
heavier than air machine will sail
from HaHmpton Roads up the Chesa-
miles, from which point the aviator
air retrace the course of the cruiser
on its journey up the bay, landing, if
his plans do not miscarry, in the Nor
folk navy yard
The trial will be made on the scout
cruaiser Birmingham by Mr. Ely in a
Curtiss biplane. The machine will
be placed on the vessel in Hampton
Roads and taken up Chesapeake Bay,
where the airship will be sent away
The distance the cruiser will be car
ried from shore has not been deter
mined. The primary purpose is to
test the practicability of releasing an
airship from a vessel of war for scout
duty.
The President previously has re-
fused permission to aviators for the
use of naval vessels for airship tests,
but it is said at the Navy Depart
ment that this will be a government

STRIKE IS
CALLED OFF
EXPRESS DRIVERS ACCEPT TERMS
OFFERED FOR SETTLEMENT
and RETURN TO WORK
ALL WERE TAKEN BACK

New York, Nov. 1.-THE strike of
drivers and helpers employed by the
transcontinental express companies is
formally declared off. The men re
turned to work this morning. This
ends one of the most serious labor
disputes that the metropolitan dis
trict has experienced in years.
Vote to Accept Terms.
The close of the strike was brought
about by the New Jersey strikers
who voted late Saturday to accept the
terms upon which the companies Of
fered to take back the men. The
agreement provides that the men
shall De taken back without discrimi-
nation. except for acts of violence
during the strike. Each company will
take up with its employees the ad-
justment of wages and hours. Recog-
milton OF their union, the chief issue
for which the strikers held out for
several days, is not granted, however,
but the open shop policy is to pre-
vail.
Does Not Affect Others
The agreement between the express
companies and their employees does
not affect the strikes of chauffeurs,
CAP drivers ana drivers Tor depart
ment stores, who at first quit work
in sympathy with the express drivers
and later presented demands in their
own behalf. Secretary Forester, OF
the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, declared that the fight of
the chauffeurs and cab drivers will
continue until recognition of their
union is won.
A bold theft of an express van con.
tanning merchandise worth $4,000
and several attacks by mobs on driv-
ers of express and delivery wagons
occurred Saturday afternoon, giving
the police the hardest work they have
had for several days in connection
with the strike.
Four strike-breakers were arrested
charged with the theft of the van
which belonged to the Adams Elk
press Company.
