5000 MEN NOW ARE OUT
Drivers and Helpers OF Nine Express
Companies Are Now Included in
Strike, Demanding Increased Pay
and Shorter Hour-Police Head
quarters of New York Issue Orders
to Hold Entire Force in Reserve.
(Rv the Associated Press

New York, Oct. 29.-The Metropoli-
tan district is still in the grip of the
express strike. Nine companies are
now affected; more than five thous-
and men are out and rioting continues.
A special order was issued al police
headquarters tonight holding practi-
cally the entire New York force or
more han 9,eQ0 men in reserve for an
emergency.
In Jersey City, the police, battered
by days of street disorders arc still
trying TO cope with the situation I'M
aided except by private detectives.
but tonight Governor Fort instructed
the third regiment n. @. n. J., to
prepare for active duty at a moments
notice. TOMORROW efforts viii be
made by the companies to distribute
the vast amount of express matter
that has accumulated, and upon the
result of the day Will depend whether
the militia is called out.
The nine companies, whose drivers
and helpers are demanding increased
pay and shorter hours are: The Ameri-
can, United States, Weils-FarGo,
Adams, National, Westc0tt and Long
Island Express companies, the Boston
Dispatch express and the Manhattan
Delivery Company.
There were no fatalities during the
days rioting, but more than nifty
/ 20 fCiSy hI1td kolIt-
were hurt, many Of them serious, in
street clashes in New York and Jersey
City. These riots occurred when
wagons manned by strike-breakers
were stormed in the face of police re
puIsion and Notwithstanding that q
detective with a rifle sat bes de each
driver. Shots We're repeatedly fired
over the heads Of the besieging
strikers, but no sooner was one crowd
dispersed than another collected
Traces were cut, packages scattered
in the streets, and in some cases de-
stroyed. An appalling lot of perish
! able goods is collecting and unless the
companies con are able better to
meet the situation they viii lose
thousands of dollars.
III front OF J. Pierpont Morgan's
home, in Madison avenue, the strikers
made a determined demonstration late
this afternoon. and the police were
forced to charge the mob and fire vol
leys in the air with their reVOlvers.
The fight centered in two American
Express Company's agons manned
by strike-breakerS. Another serious
clash took the form Of a cunning bat
tie between strikers and strike syrn-
Dathizers on the one hand and strike
breakers and police on the other. The
battle started at Forty-fourth street
and Fifth avenue, waged down the
avenue to Forty-second street, swept
across Broadway. and thence south &c
the Hotel Albany, where the strikers
and sy~mpathizers made a final stand.
An American Express Company
wagon said to have contained $4,000
in specie, was the object Of attack.
Police finally drove off the beSieGeTs.
