YANKEE AND BRITISHER IN CROSS-CHANNEL SWIM Henry F. Sullivan of Lowell, Mass., Starts From English Coast as Jabez Wolffe Leaves French. DOVER, England, Aug. %—Henry F. Sullivan, the long distance swimmer of Lowell, Masa., etarted his first attempt to swim the English Channel, a feat hitherto accomplished only by the late Capt. Matthew Webb in 1875, and by William T. Burgess, an Englishman by birth, but a naturalized French citizen, on Sept. 6, 1911 motorboat nei 6. He was acompanied when he e1 tered the water by his father, by Joe Conlan, his’ trainer; by Weidmann, a local ewimmer, and by Pearson, who Diloted Burgess during bis successful swim. Simultaneously Jabez Wolffe, the well known English amateur long-die- tance swimmer, left the French coast, near Cape Grisnes the pearest point to English coast, in an attempt t swim the Channel in an op} direction. The weather was fin id the tem of the W. .cr was 61 degrees Sullivan expested to have slack water during the first hour's awim, which he considered should take him clear of the much dreaded Goodwin Sands, after which he would have the advantage of the tide. Wolffe left the water at 2.11 in mid- Channel, after travelling twenty-four miles, including the drift with the tide, He found the water too rough to con- tinue his swim and there was aleo thick haze. This was his ninth tempt. Sullivan was ewimming etrongly at noon and averaging two miles an hour. He made good progress after entering the water at 6.45 o'clock, and at 9 o'clock was reported as passing the South Goodwin Lightship, three miles from his starting point, A heavy mist was hanging over the water, high wind developed, cr sea.

Some ten thousand men laid down thelr tools to-day and the members of the eighteen trades unions connected with the building trade threaten to join the movement unless thelr demands for the dismissal of non-union workmen are complied with, “If armed force \s used against the strikers I claim the right of the strikers to use arms to protect thelr own inti ests," said Ben Tillett, the Socialist labor leader to-day speaking at a con- fererice of the International Federation of Transport Workers now meeting !n London. Tillett pointed out that 1,000,000 workers were members of the Federa- tion, and said they must be ready on receiving Instructions from the Inter- national Executive Committee to strike against war and in case the employ denied them the right of peaceful picket- murder the There appears to be danger of a ces- sation of the water supply at Bucking- ham Palace, Marlborough House, St. James's Palace and all the Government offices which are supplied from artesian wells, all the workmen engaged in the operation having laid d heir tools.
