having business in the vicinity OF Thirty-see-
ond and q streets. it Is said, are witnesses al
most daily of hair-breadth escapes of pas
sengers who attempt to change from the cleo
| trio railroad to the Metropolitan line. Before
reaching o street a passenger may signal that
| be wishes TO change cars. Just before the
electric car reaches Dunbarton avenue it
crosses the Metropolitan tracks and is COM
PEELED to materially reduce its speed, some
times almost coming to a full stop. The pas
senger, supposlng the car is stopping to per-
nit him to get or, prepares TO aiight but just
about this time, the car having crossed the
| tracks, the mOtOrman pulls out at full speed

o street, and there permitting those who de-
sire 10 do so 20 make the change OF cars.
