CAUSE OF THE DELAY
IN STREET CAR SERVICE
Necessity of fastening of Double
Track on Tower Line Recognized
by Company.

Tie unsatisfactory service on the
Tower line during the hours of the
baseball rush yesterday was a subject
Of general complaint, particularly as il
followed instances of inadequate faci-
lities on this branch on former occa-
sions since the baseball season opened.
General Manager Lardner this morn
ing, he said: There were several cir
cumstances that entered into the con
dition OF the service. | made il a
point TO be on the ground during the
time of the rush. and while | could
see that the trains were not moving
with the regularity that they should
there were obstacles that developed
which could not be promptly overcome
Ii should be remembered that the sky
cleared so suddenly that hundreds of
people who had apparently abandoned
the idea of going 10 the park were sud
denly seized with the impulse to go.
They swarmed to the cars at the same
time. and from about 2:45 until 3: 80
we had more than could be handled
although we had plenty of cars. The
trouble was not so much in the equip
ment as in the keeping of the trains
moving. The strain on the power on
this particular line had its effect. on
trains both ways and resulted in vex-
atoms delays on switches.
This incident more than anything
else has satisfied the company that the
double track is the only solution. We
have already started on this improve
ment. but will redouble our effort now
10 fill in the gap between Aiken streer
and Seventh avenue and Twelfth
street as rapidly as it is possible to
accomplish il. This will do away with
one source of complaint and there will
be no lack of cars on hand to bring the
people back henceforth."
