lyzed in the Intervale, fremont, Ford
ham and Melrose exchanges. For near
ly half an hour 1t was impossible to
cal! by telephone, and emergency wires
had to be operated.
Although the service in the city
proper was not disrupted, there was
considerable delay. Thousands Of per-
taxicabs or umbrellas, and many hun
dreds called up their homes to say they
would be late.
On the streets traffic was nearly at
standstill in some places and the
rubber-coated traffic police labored
nightly to break tho tie-up. Surface
car traffic on Broadway was practically
stalled for an hour. Crosstown lines
were SO delayed that the ferryboats
suffered from unusual congestion
when the downpour permitted the cars
to begin making connections at the
river front. The streets were choked
from the custom house far uptown, and
the Brooklyn Bridge traffic was also
affected.
Damage to Private Property
In addition to the temporary Grip
pling Of public service industries, con-
siderable damage was done to private
property throughout the city> The
wind ripped signs from store fronts
and sent them Gathering to the streets,
while roofs were partially torn up on
q number Of frame houses.
A bolt struck the flag pole in Mount
Morris Park and shattered the upper
staff. In front of 263 West Fifty-sec-
ond Street q large tree. struck by
lightning, crashed to the roof Of
passing van and bounded to the street,
where it lay crosswise. A fire truck
company was called to remove It, Sew
erar minor accidents to pedestrians
and cars were reported, because of
automobiles skidding on the wet
streets.
Electric fire alarms were set ring
ing in Brooklyn because Of lightning
interfering with the system. The Fire
Department reported eighteen false
alarms in different parts of the bor-
ough. All the calls came in at once
and the fire houses were emptied by
vain responses.
