That 1t was mostly mothers foot that did

New York, September 13.-The failure
of Mayor Mitchell and the public service
commission today to induce street rail-
way officials to arbitrate differences with
their employees. found this city tonight
still in the grip of the transit strike,
now in its sixth day. Suspension of traf-
fic on all surface car lines in Manhattan
and the Bronx at night, and infrequent
cars during the day. has packed subway
and elevated lines.
Mayor Mitchell said late today that
something would have to be done imme-
diately and that he hoped to devise some
means by which all cars could run again.
The mayor plan to have the board of
estimate grant a franchise to the New
York Motor Bus company, permitting
omnibus traffic throughout the city. did
not give much hope tonight, as it takes
80 days for the franchise to be granted
and to put buses in operation

London, September I'm. Dimitra-
copulos, who has been asked to form
new Greek cabinet. is a supporter of
the policy of former Premier. Vent
ezlos. He has expressed the opinion
that with Rumania in the war it was
time for Greece to abandon her neu-
trality.
The belief is entertained in the en-
tente capitals that the retirement of
the Zaimis ministry is preliminary to
the entrance of Greece into the war.
Recent dispatches from Berlin and
Vienna show that there also it Is re-
garded as probable Greece will soon
abandon neutrality and Join the en-
tente powers
The precise causes which led to the
resignation of the ministry have not
been disclosed on account Of the ex-
ceptionally rigid censorship.
N A London dispatch yesterday said M.
Zaimis had complained that internal
incidents were preventing him from
dealing with the external situation. 1T
is believed in London that his resig-
nation was due to the fact that he ac-
cepted the premiership on the under
standing that he was to maintain neu-
trality and in view of the Bulgarian
occupation of Greek territory had
found this impossible.
