The subway service, according to
Commissioner Mccall, of the public

ter squad, were rushed to the scene.
Smoke poured out OF the subway en-

only one known death was recorded.
The entire fire fighting force Of
Manhattan, every ambulance in the
borough and every pullmotor that
could be found were brought to the
scene. The fact that scores of per-
sons were unconscious led to the ear
ly report that many had been killed.

no fatalities.

taken to the Polytechnic. the surgeon
said, but - far ~ he knew with

lowing a tie up of an hour and a
half. The service was again halted.
Police headquarters received word
that number of people had been ov-
ercome in the subway and ambulance
es were sent to the scene.
The early tieup was sudden. Trains
came slowly to a standstill, some of
them between stations. Smoke from
burning insulation at the Spring
street station filled the subway for
blocks. A mile away the fumes af-
fected throngs of passengers VINO
crowded the station platform.
A Great Congestion
All along the line the sale Of tick
cts was stopped. Surface cars and
elevated trains were badly congested
and all subway stations were filled to
overhowing with struggling crowds.
Many persons, Imprisoned on trains
stalled between stations were over.
come by smoke and taken out uncon-
scious by the police.
The tieup started at o'clock this
morning the beginning of the rush
hour. An hour and half later a
slow express service was started,
only to be halted by the discovery of
fire. Three alarms were turned in.
Eight ambulances were sent to the
scene. More were called for imme-
diately. From trains stalled be-
tween stations, firemen emerged bear
ing unconscious victims. Every
available fireman that could be spar-
ed was called on to help.
Pullmotors Ordered

Fire Commissioner Adamso1 who
assumed personal charge of the stu
alton, sent men scurrying throughout
the city with orders to bring every
pulmotor available to the scene
Some Of the victims died before the
pulmotors could be obtained.
Congestion the like of which the
city has seldom seen, prevailed at al.
most every subway station. At the
Brooklyn bridge the Manhattan en-
trance was choked by tens of thous.
ands. For SO minutes detachments
Of police reserves struggled with the
crowds there before order could he
restored.
Elevated trains ard surface cars
were packed to overlooking all over
the city with throngs that were
turned away from the subway.
Sixty persons we're picked up in an
unconscious condition from the scene
Of the IRE to the Fower hospital.
Other hospital received many victims

Fire Commissioner Adamson re.
ceived reports from battalion chiefs
to the effect that the fire was COZ
fined to two subway cars, that sew.
eral persons had been killed and a
great many injured and overcome.
All manhole covers were removed
as well as the ventilator gratings.
In the openings thus made firemen
placed their hose. Other squads Of
firemen crawled down through the
binding smoke that poured from he
Fiftieth and Fifty-ninth street stu.
tons, into the tube itself and work
ed in relays.
Red Flames Below
Through the smoke that rolled up
from the manholes could be seen
the red flames below.
The frs started in train between
the Fiftieth and Fiftyninth street
stations. Some of the hundreds Of
passengers wedged tight in the cars
said afterwards that it started with
an explosion and that the train came
almost Immediately to a standstill.
Aboard the train there was frautc
rush for the end doors.
Through the open doors at each
end there poured a steam of men
and women who struggled through
the smoke apparently oblivious Of
the danger of the third rail toward
the two stations. The platforms at
these stations We're jammed and in
the wild rush for the exits some per.
sons were thrown down and trampled
on.

 streets today President Guillame has l fled to the protection of the French legation with his army hopelesly de- feated and himself in the most desper- ate danger of capture and execution at l the hands of the rebels. The downfall | of the dictator was the signal for riot | ing to extend In every direction and the streets of the capital were soon aalaze
 with the revolutionary spirit. Follow | ing the announcement that Guillame had taken refuge in the French lega- tion, the crowd gathered around the building and gave vent to their feel ings in wild demonstrations. Later the frenzied people made their way to the
 government palace and within a few
 minutes the handsome building was in
 flames. The attack on Cap. Hatien
 commenced before daylight and con-
 tinued until after ten thirty. Guillame
 and his soldiers continued a desperate defense until the rebels poured into the town in overwhelming numbers and many of the more prominent buildings were afire.
