Experts of marlborough and
Commission Work Out
Plan of Safety.
VENTILATION PROVIDED.
Separate System of Lights and
Phones Between Stations
for Cases of Emergency.

Chief Engineer Craven OF the Pub
lie Service Commission to-day made
public the conclusions arrived at by
experts Of the Interborough and Of
the commission as to the best
methods OF preventing smoke trag-
sdiss ana other accidents In the sub
ways.
The first and quickest step that
can be taken" says the report, seems
TO be to provide ventilation from the
manholes Of splicing chambers to the
surface Of the street. so that the
gases and smoke created In such
manholes will have immediate access
to the surface instead OF being forced
through the manhole doors into the
subway. Measures are being taken
now with a Wow Of installing such
ventilation"
Chief Engineer Craven says further
studies are being made with view. II
feasible. Of eniargins and rebuilding
the cable manholes 10 that the OPEN
ings into the subways from such man
holes may be closed II thought de-
slrable and that there may be a
complete segregation Of high and low
tension cables.
The other improvements agreed
upon are:
Tn addition to the company's pres.
ent private telephone system which
10 now in the subway. to install 4
second telephone system entirely dis.
tinct and separate from the present
system and properly separated from
the power cables. The telephones on
this latter system are to be provided
at suitable intervals throughout the
entire subway between stations.
Such an installation will insure POSI-
tive communication in cases OF emer-
sency between employees and train
crews inside the subway with the
proper authorities outside Of the sub
way.
ITO install an additional lighting
system and re-arrange the present
system so that the two systems will
be normally independent Of each
other. One system Is to be supplied
from the FifT-ninth Street power
plant and light ono sida of'the sub
way and the second system Is 10 be
supplied from the Seventy-fourth
