The delay was due to a aropping a piece of fron across the wire at the entrance of the New York ter- minal, ‘The iron balanced across the wire and one of the support wires, and instantly there were explosions and blue flame shot high above the wire. ‘A bridge train packed to the plat- forms of every cad halted near the wire. Behind this train came a long line of trains end they too halted, making a block extending entirely across the ridge and back into Braakiya. Passengers on the trains which were caught on the bridge were held pris- oners until the block was raised, but those on trains back of the Brooklyn station alighted and made their way to New York as best they could. The capacity of the trolley cars were al- roady taxed. but there seemed always room for one more on every car, and men and women jammed themselves into the cars and were brought over to New York. Some diMculty was experienced tn getting the piece of tron from the wire because of the flames that shot out of ft. ‘The tron was a: last poked from its position by a workman with a wooden pole.
