THEATREGOERS OBJECT
Want More Subscay Trains to Pre-
Uent EUening Crush.

Because of informal complaints transmitted 10 IL
recently the Public Service Commission VIII prooa-
big take up the question or ordering aooi-
tionaI service the subway during the hours pc
tween 7:30 and $50 .. m and IL and IL p rIl-tie
theatre rush hours" Figures now in the posses
sion of the commission a result OF recent IN
spection show that hundreds forced to stand in
the subway at these hours, when the subway ser
vice is much decreased from the highest standard
Figures compiled by inspectors for the comnis-
sion last month show an increase OF travel on the
subway at the hours when complaints of standing
room only are made OF more than 100 per cent
and from some stations of great deal more than
that percentage. This increase In so marked de-
gree shows only at those hours proving that IL is
due to the theatregoers. Increases in the numoer
of standees at those hours compared with the
middle of August when the theatres were closed.
run close up to the 100 per cent marx
At these particular hours the subway schedule Is
about at its lowest mark Few trains compared 10
the rush hour schedule. rum and these trains
do not contain many cars as the trains run our
ing tho rush hours" Inspectors for the commits
sion are fully satisfied that ii would be easy FOR the
Tnterborough to accommodate the theatregoers by
running a few more trains in the hours complained
of or running the trains with more cars
As they sec the situation. the objection from the
railroads pout OF view is that the trains which
would he full from Harlem down to 18th street
would be empty below that point practically, and
when the homeward rush begins the trains would
be run practically empty from the southern ter
minal up to the 23d or the -sln street s'a'o' "eie
they would fill rapidly.
