SLOV WORK ON THE SUBWAYS.
GREAT ANNOYANCE CAUSED BY THE D1LAToRY
METHODS EMPLOYED IN BROADWAY


great deal of dissatisfaction has been caused among
business men in lower Broadway because Of the slow
progress made in the work of laying the electrical
subway there. This subway IS for electric light
wires and IS being laid on the east side of the thor
oughfare. A prodgiOus amount Of annoyance has
been caused yet in front of many establishments doing
