would be shut down in ordinary
course except Tuesday and the fore.

Reports at the Pennsylvania Rail
road Offices here showed much more
general obedience to the strike order
at the shops and yards in the vicinity
OF this city than had been anticipated
The other railroads expected a gen
eral compliance with the strike order
and were not surprised when their
shops were emptied.
The New York Central reported at
noon that for a time IT was running
trains subject to delay" because car
inspectors. airbrake men and others
had quit and It took a little time to
put to work the men held In reserve
to take their places. The Central,
however, managed to send out nll IT'S
regular trains almost on time. as we'll
as thirty special trains to carry the
large number OF passengers who are
beginning their vacations on the end
Of the month and on the eve of a

day when the vessel came to her pier
They crowded so closely about tho

nearly 100 that clustered about the
pier head and of the Seventh Regi-
ment Band which was dlscourslng its

music and that was all.
But, from what he said, he was
rather content to be out OF the lime
light. The mere thought OF meeting
the reception committee fairly stag
gered him. To the ship news report
ers who met him at Quarantine he
said:
'If they expect me to make a speech

So Hagen. with Jim Barnes. Jock

the country's common good.'
The President in addressing the
gathering. which included about thirty
operators. the same number approxi-
mately of United Mine Workers OFF,

Coupled with his appeal and admo-

regarded as a warning when he said
that il the operators and miners could
not 'settle this matter in a frank
recognition of the mutuality of your

name of the people where the common
good is the first and highest concern. -
"You are admonished to arrive at

President declared. "If the adjust

Government aid will be available at

best know the way to solution to

that, the servants of the American
people will be called to the task in tho

WAS GREATLY UPSET

Assistant District Attorney Elvin
N. Edwards at Mineola to-day made
public a letter written on May by
Miss Edith Lavoy in which the Fres-
port school teacher told a friend that
William Greasy had told her he had
come from Kentucky ito live with
me or die with me-"
Greasy is now In the Nassau County
Jail under an indictment charging
murder in the first degree in connec-
ton with the death on June 2s last
of Miss Lavoy. The school teachers
body was found in the parlor Of hsr
boarding place in North Main Strest,
Freeport. Greasy declared she had
committed suicide by shooting herself
while he slept on tho couch.
The letter was addressed to Dan l..
Sherman. No. 1146 Leeds Street.
Utica. Mr.. Leeds is a friend Of the
Lavoy family Of long standing. It
evidently was written because Miss
Lavoy wished some one to know of the
threat which, she alleged, Greasy had
implied, and because, knowing that
she would not marry him, she was not
at all certain but that he would force
upon her the desperate alternative he
suggested.
| The letter was written in pencil on
school stationery. and was sent by
special delivery. The letter follows:

The subway teup was serious.
Crowded trains came to stop when
rloo6 caused by water pouring down
the steps Of stations and through
ventllators and the saf'y s&td of
sewers necessitated the cutting off OF
power When the power was shut off
the lights went out and the fans
ceased to revolve.
An Evening World reporter was on
southbound express train trat
stopped between 18th and 14th Streets.
A few minutes after the train
stopped. the guards announced thar
passengers wishing to get off should
proceed to the rear car.
Every passenger on the. train want
ed to get off and there was rush in
the darkness for the rear car. The
only lights were the storage battery
bulbs on the platforms and they were
very faint.
In a few minutes all the passcn-
gers were jammed in the last two
cars and guard at the rear door
refused to let anyone leave. The air
was sitting and almost any sort of
a nuntoward happening could have
started a disastrous panic.
On orders from the guards, the
passengers distributed themselves
through the train again. The lights
were turned on after twenty-five
minutes of darkness and the fans
made air in an atmosphere that was
becoming poisonous.
One hour after thetrain stopped, II
moved down to the 14th Street Sta
ton. In the meantime, passengers
from stalled local trains above and
below had walked to that station.
Negro porters were passing out
blockade tickets good for a ride within
forty-eight hours and in order that
everybody might be supplied the de-
parting passengers were shifted
through the turnstile. AS a result,
the platform was jammed from end to
end and side to side. Hundreds OF
passengers didn't want tickets und
yelled for open gates, but the subway
employees insisted That everybody
must pass through the turnstiles.
The fog settled down about 10
o'clock and by noon the city was In
the darkness of night. The lighted
windows of the skyscrapers were only
family visible at distance Of two
city blocks Harbor traffic was COM
pletely tied up.
Then came a torrential downpour
One inch and a half of rain fell In
forty minutes. While this Is not q
record, IT Is unusual.
The tide flooded the lower west side
of Manhattan, tho water OF the river
pouring over the bulkheads or th6
piers. Fulton Market and that neigh
borhood were indunated. All sewers
backed up and cellars were Hooded al
over the lower part of Manhattan.
Scores of streets in Brooklyn were
flooded because the sewers we're In
adequate to carry off the great volume
of water. Many Easements conse-
quently, were partly filled, The
| Sewer Department received more thar
100 complaints, but shortly after the
rain stopped the sewers were aole tc
