down in a flood when a big water
main broke at Park avenue yesterday
All night long steam pumps worked
to overcome the tide, but even after
the main was closed it was estimated
that many hours would be required to
rid the tunnel of water. The most Sc

Fourteenth and Forty-second streets,
where the tracks are depressed from

and up to noon had not been cleared

that extensive repairs may have to be
made before the regular service in
that important connecting section may
be resumed as the water may have
weakened the walls and caused other
damage. Both above and below the
seriously affected section shuttle

Every train on the elevated lines
carried extra cars and every train was
filled to it's capacity. The surface
cars, too,were taxed as they have not

through traffic on the underground
road would be restored by the time
the uptown rush begins this afternoon.
