TAXI SKIDS INTO SUBWAY CUT.
Landed on Planking and Held Up Traffic on
Lexington Ave. Line.

A yellow taxicab, containing four men in
evening clothes, was coming down Lexing-
ton Avenue about 10 o'clock last night, when
Just below Sixty-frst Street it skidded on
the wet planking and dropped five feet into
an opening between the car tracks. Fortu-
nately it landed upon all four wheels and
none of those inside, nor Thomas A. Rorke,
the chauffeur, was injured.
At that point the opening over the exca-
walton for the new Lexington Avenue Sub
way is planked over. There is a double
planking with a space of about five feet
between the upper and lower planking. The
upper has been taken out between the tracks
in order to lay switches. 1t was into this
opening that the taxi dropped.
A policeman of the East Sixty-seventh
Street station assisted the passengers and
chauffeur to the street. The former would
not give their names. They said they were
on their way to the Harvard Club. 1t took
torty-fve minutes to lift out the taxi, and
meantime traffic on the line was tied up.
A great crowd gathered, for a report spread
that the subway had caved in.-L6id.
