STRIKERS NULL|EY
PEACE AGREEMENT
Jersey Express Drivers Refuse
to Return and Settlement
Falls Flat

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE striking
express drivers and helpers of Jer-
sey City nullifed this afternoon the
agreement reached early this morning
between the New York strikers and the
five transcontinentai companies That
agreement was conditional upon the
consent of the Jersey men to return to
work They have refused.
The situation now reyerts to the posi-
ton it occupied before Mayor Gaynor
took a hand. with this exception-that t
the mayor is angry and resolved to
temporize no more. Some of the drivers
and helpers who believed the Jersey
men would ratify the agreement were
on their wagons today, but if the in
ternational brotherhood of teamsters
makes good its word, they will all be
called out again.
The chauffeurs are fighting their own
battle. and it promises to be bitter.
Five hundred cab drivers went out to
aid them today. and they declare they
will never go back until the union is
recognized.
They can reject the agreement if
they want to- said Mayor Gaynor, "but
Ibeg to say that man of their own
selectwn same to me voluntarily, at no
request of mine, and made the honor
able agreement. If the men reject that
agreement / shall teach them that ex-
press wagons can be run without their
help, even if we have to man every
one of them with policemen"

selves and of one another, and the re-
suit of their discussion and communion
was the Spinster club, which led the
gayeties last year. and is rivaling the
debutantes this season. They have Or
ganized bylaws, elected president
and meet every two weeks, possibly TO
fortify their position by reminding one
another of their vows.
Necessarily. they may have any num-
Der of platonic affairs: but when the
man begins to verge on the sentimental
the club pin is displayed. They. have
proposals This feature can not be
avoided, for the six are charming in
their various ways. Then again, some
men there are who don't give two pins
about club pin and refuse to be
stopped. But when the storm breaks
and the man bows his head for the
stroke the spinsters are sorry-so
sorry-but--
Explanations are made. The dis
missal is effected without pain. The
six have this advantage that they can
inform a man that their vows forbid
their marrying. A touch of pathos
may accompany the remuneration, which
relieves them of all responsibility Of
refusal
The probabilities are that there will
come the inevitable disbanding. despite
vows and assertions and club pins, but
for the present the six young women
hold together. desiring not marriage,
fleeing from the divorce to come, find
ing in the fun and frolic of youth the
spice of life

RIVERS OF FRANCE
On THE RAMPAGE
Suburbs of Paris Are Flooded
and Many Villages Are
Inundated

PARIS. Nov. 1.-THE river Seine is
again on a rampage. The rapidity Of
its current today forced all the steam
ers on the stream to suspend opera
tfons.
Prolonged rains in eastern France
hsve swollen the affiuents of the Seine
and the steady rising Of the big river
has caused uneasiness in the lower
sections.
The suburbs of Paris in the vicinity
OF the river are slightly flooded The
River Muerthe and its branches are
over their banks, inundating many VIII
lagos. Great damage has been done at
Nancy, where 1,5o0 persons have been
driven from their homes.
The valley of the River Moselle is
flooded and many factories have been
compelled TO shut down
All parts OF France are suffering
from the effects OF the floods. The
ouays in the southeastern part OF this
city are being inundated and ryorknen
are making desperate efforts to save
merchandise.
The opening OF the tunnels of the
Orleans railroad are closed to avoid
the flooding of the underground pas
ssges. IT is estimated that the gauge
at Spott ROYAL will show the water to
have reached 8, height of $40 meters
by Sunday This will be 5.22 above the
normal The gauge stood at $50
meters during the height Of the flood
last January

pear to have diminished savings, ac-
cording to figures compiled in the
treasury department. Deposits in the

creased TO more than $4,000. 100000.
The average depositor's account was
s445.22, just S24.77 above the average
OF the year before. There are 10000
more savings bank depositors than
there were a year ago, and the total
of the deposits has swelled s257,000, 900
during the year.
Capital employed by banks of all
classes in the United states Increased
sSO,0O0,00 during the year. Individual
deposits in the banks increased more
than S1.240. GOES 900. and the aggregate
assets increased sI,355, 100000.
The banks, however are holding
about ss1.o0o,O0o less in cash than they
did in 1909.
