The Largest Passenger Elevators In the World.

The largest elevators for carrying passengers
in the world have just been completed on the
banks OF the Hudson, near Woehawken Tho

York City, aud between the Hudson River aud
the Hackensacl;. has up 10 this time not been
used as generally for purposes Of pleasure aud
residence as 10 should have been. This elevated
plain, known as the Palisades, is at its begin
ming some 80 feet above high tide, and is over
mile wide at the same point IL stretches
north for many miles up tho Hudson River,
and naturally rises in elevation as il proceeds
This high land has been accessible only by
steep grades for wagon roads, and By means OF
stairways which climbed laboriously up the
steep clif. The Hudson County Railway Co.,
which operates the elevated road at HObOken
and controls many Of the street-car lines in
that neighborhoOd has Of late years been ex-
tending these lines and increasing the facili-
ties for getting on top Of the Palisades, and
from one part Of this high plateau to another.
The most recent addition 10 the plant Of this
company has been the building Of huge CCya-
tors at Weehawken, where the ferTyboats
from Forty second aud Jay street, New York
City, discharge their passengers, and where also
the West Shore Railway starts north and west
10 Albany and Buffalo. These elevators are
the largest ever constructed for passengers, aud
IN planning them the Engineers have adopted
new devices TO secure their safety Against ac-
cidents. From the elevators, which rise just
from the waters edge there is an immense
vaduct or elevated railroad which runs sOme
sJD feet back 10 the HILL where connections
will be made with the various steam and horse
cars which will run in ono direction and
another.
