The crippling Of transformers In tho

reduced the power by half from los TO

eight minutes OF trouble at the source,
1t reduced the speed OF all trains while
the rush nour was still on and stopped
the elevators to the street at the l6sth.
lSlst and l9lst street stations
Several thousand persons were forced
TO climb the dusty emergency stairways
In Indian file, one line going up while
another came down. The stairways had
never been used since the subway wns
built. eight years ago, and had never
been cleaned.
Tho first eign OF trouble that pas.
senGers noticed was the dimminE OF
lights In the trains and the reduction Of
speed, which made all the trains eight
minutes late. according to Supt Mer-
rift When they piled OF at their sta.
lions a few minutes later they found
the platforms already damned and angry
persons swarming around the foot Of the
elevator shafts.
Then the inevitable was accepted. and
the exodus up the stairways began. There
are persons on Washington Heights who
will swear that those shafts are 1000
feet deep. and they are-going UP. IN
reality the shaft at l6sth street Is about
100 feet deep. that at lSlst more than
1870 feet and the ono at l9lst stree,
about 200 feet to the top.
Large. corpulent individuals painted ny
behind little old women. and men could
be seen exchanging bundle for baby

hausted, and the long line from tho pit
checked, muttered and cussed until the
person got a second wind and stag
gered on up. II was good fifteen

Tho most disagreeable part of the
business TO those going down was the
dirt. Many OF them were dressed for the
theatre women In evening wraps and
with uncovered heads.
In the meantime train after train had
been dumping 400 or more persons every
two or three minutes ht the already over
flowing platform at lslst street and the
situation might have become dangerous II
many who lived atov- that point had no;
taken another train TO l?lst street and
walked back while those who lived below
crossed the bridge and went down 70
lssth street. where the elevators had
begun TO resume service and relieve the
pressure by the time they arrived.
The actual overcrowding and climbing
up the shafts lasted much longer than the
eight minutes the transformers were out
OF order, because the elevator runners
did not know when power was restored
TO the normal and the congestion had
become 30 great It could not be relieved
at once.
