and also in the tunnels and ~Statins be
gan to grow DINNER every second. AT
this time every train was packed. Tn
der the circumstances, the passengers
were requested to leave the trains. Where
they were drawn up at stations this was
an easy matter, but as in many instances
trains haG pulled up i'll the tunnel, il
was necessary for the passengers to juml
out on the side track and walk many
hundred yards along the line. Womel
shrieked with terror and tainted. remem
bering possibly the terrible tube" fire
Of 1902, when nearly 100 persisted. Mean
time the grand boulevards were plunged
into semi darkness. Curious effects were
noticed. For instance. while the Avenue
de IOpera, which depends for its supply
on an electric station not affected by til,
fire. was brilliantly lighted, the Place
dc IOpera was almost i'll darkness.
