\ \ ‘ } DIRT IS NOT FLYING FOR NEW SUBWAYS; THO WEEKS NOW Chairman Willcox’s Official Start on Lexington Avenue Is Filled With Dust. i, MAY WAIT SIXTY DAYS. Laborers Turned Away and Service Board Says Bradley & Js-“‘Assembling Forces,” Gwe atrt te NOT flying yet for the new eubways. Not a spadeful of earth has been turned on Lexington avenue aimee the official ceremonies and @pecchmaking Monday. The eighteen- ine hole in the asphalt near the corner © Sixty-seventh street, from which Chairman Willcox of the Public Service Commission dug the first dirt ie hardly visible under ths accumulation of dust end dirt. ‘Phe tool chests which were placed en Gixty-seventh street and several side streets near have disappeared except one which stands on Sixty-first street and is quarded by three men. The police have been busy shooing away swarms of men who have assem- bled every morning, armed with pick ‘and shovel, ready to start digging. Yesterday the crowd was well-nigh unmanageable, and kept a@ platoon of potlos busy nearly all morning. To-dey, word having gone about that there was “nothing doing” for the present, thd otowd had dwindled and one policeman was able to dixposs of the would-be! laborers. ONLY A SINGLE LABORER ON THE JOB. ‘When an Evening World reporter, who had started after a story of the actual | beginning of the excavation for which the city has been waiting with increas- ing impatience eo many years, got to he found anv a new corduroy trousers and carried a brand new spade. He held to the railing of the house on the corner, posed in picturesque fashion, and gazed wanly at the barely percep- tdle official hole. ‘At the offices of the Public Service Commission, the following explanation was vouch ¢ “The official opening came right on the heels of the awarding of the contracts, and the Bradley Company fg now engaged in assembling ite forces. Under the contract they _bave sixty days in which to atart the work going. The same thing happened with the digging of the Fourth avenue tunnel over in Brook- lym. The Bradieys were all of ‘two weeks in getting under way, It is pot likely that they will need more to get started on this job.” it talk, however, is that the dirt wit not fly before the full sixty days have elapsed. Then the work of tun- ne@lling under the avenue will be started, eo that work may continue without in- terruption during the winter. Before the official ceremony of cut- ting the hole in the ground took place {t Was announced that digging would begin at twenty points along the ave- nue at the same moment. Yesterday Frank Bradley announced that the work would bexin to-day. but to-day no pre dtetions were being made. Chairman Willcox and J.

The: firvt hospital case of @ police- man supposed to have been made {ll by having to stand in one spot for hours at a time on @ stationary post was reported early to-day when Policeman ‘Thomas McSherry, thirty-nine years o14, of No, 161 Luqueer street, was found‘on the sidewalk et Hoyt and Pa- cifle streets, Brooklyn, unconscious, and taken to the Long Island College Hoe- pitel. McSherry { attached to the Butler street station. At 11 P, M. last night he took his stand on the fixed post at the corner of Hoyt and Pacific streets, stood there for two hours and was then Telieved for two hours of patrol duty. At 3 o'clock he returned to the fixed post and relieved the other man for his two hours’ patrol. Soon afterward McSherry became weak and dizzy. He walked to the curb and sat down, and remembered nothing else until after he had been found at 4.20 o'clock by Joseph and Simon Graham, two backers, who were leaving their shop at No, 110 Hoyt street. Dr. Cestare, who came in an ambu- lance from the Long Island College Hospital, said, after examining the po- Meeman, that he was suffering from acute weakness, It ts @ question whether the inactivity of stationary post duty has had any ef- | fect on the men who have been used to | pounding the pavements for houre on a stretch. It has been asserted that there | has been a large increase of the sick list since the new system went into effect, but many officials thought this might ‘be due to the men's dislike for that kind of work, ‘A thorough examination will be made of McSherry to-day by police surgeons to determine {f possible what caused his sudden collapse, ee BALFOUR’S LAST STAND AGAINST THE VETO BILL.)
