BIGGER SUBWAY CROWDS.
Operation Still FauIty-Mdny IN
Disgust Return to a."

bigger crush than ever. but anticipated and
better prepared for; continued relief OF the ele-
waited and surface lines. but scarcely SO noticeable
as on Friday; deranged schedules and frequent ex-
asperating delays incident to the early stages OF
operation marked the second full days operation
of the subway yesterday.
AS to the traflc figures. Frank Hedley, the gem
eral manager Of the operating company confessed
his inability to hazard any estimate, contentng
himself with the statement that $4,000 passengers
had been carried on Friday and that more than
that number transported yesterday.
It was estimated that the surface traffic fell 30
per cent below the normal Saturday figures. and
that the elevated decrease averaged from 10 to 20
per cent.
In view. however. Of the fact that Saturday
the elevated and surfSe traffic resolves itself into
the question rather Of how long one has to wait
FOR an opportunity to effect a footing step
than OF how many persons can obtain seating &C
comrnodations; in view also of the circumstance
that the subway continues TO be freighted with
curiosity seekers ard those still unwearied Of
toy" and, lastly, in view of the day being
Saturday and just what that implies, little OF no
criterion afforded as to how greatly the sub
way will eventually relieve congestion on the two
other systems OF transportation
Certain it was however. that while many surface
cars both the East and West Sides started
uptown from the City Hall in the rush hours less
than one-third filed, many passengers who have
been riding in the subway to and from their places
OF business forsook the love for the old,
electing a possibly slower but more trustworthy
schedule over a possibly speeder but less trust
worthy time table.
Mr. Hediey conceded that in the morning the
new system was not moving smoothly during
the rush hours as had been hoped for by the Off
Gals Of the company. He said:
l don't think there are as many people riding
this morning s there were yesterday. They went
back 70 their old standby, the elevated trains The
cause of the delays is due to the newIess OF the
system in its equipment and operating FORCES The
men who are running and handling the trains are
not yet familiar enough with their work to main
tain the running schedule Of trains time.
Another reason advanced by Mr. Hedley was that
the equipment Of the road did not include One
hundred-and-forty- hfth-st as a terminal.
Although have been running trains on ex.
detrimental schedule he continued, yet we did
not get the switches working at 0ne,hundred-and-
forty-nfth-st. until October p. l think We are
doing very well to do what doing now
Mr.. Hediey explained that when the men get
used to handling the sliding doors. the trains
will be loaded much more promptly. He added
that steps to increase the trains from five 10
eight would be taken until the five car trains
were working smoothly and time.
