STREETS LESS SLIPPERY.
I'ribuse's Campaign Leads to More
Careful Sprinkling.

The asphalted streets of Manhattan have been
less slippery this week than at any time since
early spring The reason Is that they have
been less sprinkled. The Street Sprinkling As
sociations order to the drivers of their carts to
put on as little water as possible has not been
called in On Thursday they sprinkled only
close to the curb in Fifth-ave., leaving the
greater part of the roadway free from water
and safe for teams and automobiles Yesterday
morning the carts did not travel over the as
phalted streets uptown. On every hand one
heard praise OF the sprinkling reform which
was brought about by The Tribune in giving
publicity to the many dangers Of slippery streets
and to the protests against the practice.
Perhaps the Street Sprinkling Association is
trying to build character. looking to securing

CRUSH ON NEW BRIDGE.

Relief Of Congestion on Brooklyn

Inc running OF trolley Of the Brooklyn

gestion of traffic which showed that the bridge

transit facilities. After the experience of yes
lerday there is hardly any room for doubt that
the new bridge will take q large load Of travel
away from the Brooklyn Bridge before long.
About thousand cars OF the Nostrand-ave.,

Franklin-ave. lines crossed the new bridge.
rying passengers from distant parts OF Brooklyn
TO this side for single fare OF five cents, and re-
turning. carrying passengers from the Manhat-
tan end TO distant parts Of Brooklyn for the
same fare. In addition 10 these. the company
kept six local bridge cars running across the
bridge all day. These did not run beyond the
Brooklyn end. The fare was three cents for a
ride one way or five cents for the round trip. and
no transfers were given to the cars Of the other
lines
Although the running Of the cars the new
bridge had not been advertised widely the
crowds that tried to cross at the rush hours
yesterday morning and last evening were too
large for the number Of cars. Every car Of the
through lines at the rush hours crowded
SO that about half of the passengers were stand
Ing and packed close in the middle Of the car.
Il was estimated that about eighty thousand
persons went over the bridge In trolley cars in
Inc I"enty-four hours ending at midnight, fully
nty thousand Of that number at the rush hours
The cars Of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
peny run only on the south side Of the bridge
and to the end Of the Manhattan terminal The
tracks on the north side Of the bridge are be-
Ing made with trolley slots SO that they can be
used by the cars Of the Metropolitan system
The Brooklyn Rapid Transit cars will run as
rar as the Bowery when the DeIancey-st i'm
provement is completed, and then. also, the
metropolitan cars will cross the bridge to Brook
