Sympathetic Strike Is
Fast Disintegrating.

New york, Sept. 29.-Ferries of the
New York Central lines, plying be-
tween Manhattan and New Jersey
were tied up during the rush hours
today by a strike of $50 employees on
the boats. The latest labor difficulty
resulted from the demands of shorter
hours and higher pay.
The strike has no connection with
the Garments situation. Thousands
of people gathered at the two sta
tons of the company, the crowds
Overlooking INTO the streets, despite
heavy rain. Not until police reserves
were called out did the commuters
abandon their demands for boats, and
reach their homes by roundabout
routes.
Probabilities Of sympathetic
strike lessened tonight, when local
brewery workers, 900 members, voted
to return to work. Officials of the

ASSOCIATED Press Summary.

Steadily the British troops are
pushing forward toward the Peronne-
Bapaume road, the main artery i'm
mediately behind the German lines
north of Combles. After taking 500
yards of trenches southwest of LeSar,
Gen. Sir Douglas Haig's men made
additional progress in the capture of
500 yards of German trenches east of
Les Boeuts.
The British occupancy of the
positions between Thiepval and the
Ancres is being contested strongly by
the Germans. German counter attacks
after the entry of the British into
the trenches resulted in the frcing out
of the holders. but possession was re-
gained later. Heavy fighting also has
occurred around the Suppe redoubt.
Rain is hampering operations on the
remainder of the front north Of the
Somme, according to official state
ments. Paris mentions no activity af-
ter the advance between Fregi court
and Morval toward Sally, on the Per-
onne-Bapaume road.
There has been no great activity on
other fronts except in Pennsylvania,
where the Austro- Germans have re-
pulsed the Rumanians at Herman
stadt. Vienna says Teuton forces also
have occupied heights east and south
east of the town, after violent fight
ing. This battle, however. continues.
The fighting in the vicinity of Kor-
rintzy seems ended. Berlin and vi
