A FLAT REFUSAL
BY Express Companies To Stand for a
"Closed Shop"

New York, Nov. "A sharp rebuff
for the striking express drivers and
helpers was the outcome Of the first
conference between the men and COM
panies. The employers refused their de-
mands for CLOSED shop" and two of
the companies declined to treat with
the strikers except as former employees.
Recognition of their union is one of the
strongest demands of the drivers.
The most gained by the drivers was
promise that the question of wages
and hours would be taken under CON
sideration. Scant hope remains Of an
early adjustment of the trouble.
The striking express drivers, helpers
and platform men viii mold mass meet
this afternoon to discuss the calling of
a general strike of 10000 teamsters.
They viii receive the report of the
committee which tried to arrange a
settlement with the companies, but they
refused to accept the strikers basic
so general strike is pos
sible.

walton.

A dumpcart loaded with debris from
the riyer-bed excavation and pair of
horses driven by Benjamin Willis caused
considerable excitement at 1870 o'clock
this afternoon near the Montpelier &
Wells River freight depot, when long
log, which was used as a check in back
ing the horses near the river, gave
way, precipitating the cart and horses
over the bank. As the dumpeart was
arrested in its downward plunge by a
pile of stones, little damage was done
to it, while the horses were found to
have suffered no injuries when extri-
Gated. Other nearby teams assisted
in removing the wagon from the bank.
An accident Of a similar nature occurred

Measuring Electricity.

Electricity is measured by the
kllOwatt hour. The rates for buy
ing current from the electric light
plant for power, light or heat are
always SO much for each kllowatt
hour of electricity consumed. To
explain the term needs, first, a
clear definition, and then COM
parison. Everyone will understand
that certain amount of force must
be used to drive electric energy
through a circuit. This force is
measured in volts; thus we have no.
volt circuits, and 220-volt circuits,
the one expressing just twice the
force of the other; but the quantity
of current passing through circuit
depends upon the force and the re-
sistance. sIThis quantity is expressed
by different term namely amperes.
Now the efficacy of the current
depends npon both force and guam
tlty, and to express this efficacy or
united action we multiply the force
by the quantity that is the volts by
the amperes. We express the result
in watts, Thus 10 volts multiplied
by 5 amperes is 1 100 watts. A kilo-
watt is of course 1, 900 watts, which
is the equivalent to about l ] Ell. P.
In charging battery the lighting
companies bill for the use of so
many watts for SO many hours; thus,
l 900 watts for 10 hours would be
charged as 10 as kilowatt hour would
be 50 cents, which at 5 cents kilo-
watt hour would be so cents, a
charge that seems little enough for
10 hours use of IL b. p. But what
kilOwatt hour is worth may be
judged by what it will do Thus
k1lowatt hour, figures an engineer
Of the General Electric Co., will
light 20 16 candle power incandes-
cent lamps or two standard arc
lamps for one hour; it will pump
100 gal. of water to a height of 20 fl
