GRAVESEND FLOODED
THAMES AT HIGH TIDE. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. LONDON, November 1. Owing to the highest tide since 1913, the Thames to-day flooded the lowest streets of Gravesend. Boats were used in the promenade at Dartford, Woolwich, Greenwich, and Bow Bridge. Thousands lined the Embankment, watching the rising water, which percolated but did not overflow the terrace at Parliament House. The Greenwich tramways were temporarily suspended. Many houses and offices were flooded.
