CARS BLOCKED IN SUBWAY
Traffic Delayed by Derangement of
Automatic Block Signal
System
fhouRnnds of men nnd women rushing;
to their dnlly work were delayed 12
minutes todny when an accident to the
subway service, occurred.
It was during the rush traffic Just
before 8 o'clock, nnd was due to n do
rnnjremcnt of the automatic block signal
system In the tunnel around City Hall
nnd at the 13th street station.
Tho delay affected Ml tho trains ;nst
of City Hall station, nnd stopped three
trains In the turn nround City Halt. This,
Ih turn, held up trains ns far west ns
4Cth street because of the closeness of
tho hendwny under which they were
running.
The trouble was communlcntrd to the
power BUpply( nnd this affected some of
the surface lines, also enst of City Itnll.
This blocked the Incoming lines from
north nhd south of Market street, notably
the 19th and 20th "-street lines. ' It took
hair an hour to fltrnlUen out the tanslc,
although the cars started to move after
the 12 minute of nUtml stopp.iga of
power was repaired.

a 20-foot fall from the roof of the build
ing. Is confined to his home today with
injuries snld to bo serious.
The, fire wai discovered by tho sexton'
Thomas Rich, who had gone to the base
ment shortly before 10 o'clock to bank
the fires for tho night. It Is believed to
havo been caused by crossed electric
wlreB back of the motor which runs tho
plpo organ. A false partition, several
feet long, runs up In back of the organ,
and the flames were sweeping up this
when Rich Informed Police Sergeant
Humes, who turned In nn alarm.
Several deacons of tho church, who ar
rived with the llremcn, Insisted thnt only

building be used, so ns to prevent dam
age to tho furniture by wntcr, according
to the police. Their demnnds were so in
sistent, the pollco say, that they wcro
finally ejected from the building
During the delay the flames gained such
headway that Chief Carter, upon his ar
rival, turned In a general alarm, bring
ing eight engines and iw firemen to tho
scene. Carter became confused by the
tense smoke while directing his men from
he roof ot the building nnd stepped "off,
falling a distance of 20 feet
A fow minutes later Firemen Wnlton
nnd Clark found the unconscious form of
their chief lying in tho trlnngulnr nrca
way bctwcc-i .ho edifice nnd tho framo
Sunday school building. Ho was carried
to a place of safety and revived by the

from painful Injuries nbout the body and
head, insisted on -emalnlng on duty, An
hour later ho beenmo faint nnd collapsed
and was sent to his home, where it was
said today his condition wns critical.
Mrs, Johnson, who had been attending
a "cottuge" prayer meeting, learned of
tho lire and hurried to the parsonage. In
her anxiety to save her children nnd 1 er
mother, and unnble to get the door open,
sho drove her list through the glass par

It appears that Oross had to sit on
tho pano to keep It from hitting the
brick wnll ns It was pulled Up by other
workmen on the sidewalk.
Incidentally, It was learned that none of
tho men tried to catch the piano or the
negro when they fell and both had plenty
of room to land on the sidewalk at fi?d
and Arch streets, where tho accident hap
pened. A dull feeling In the head and a slight
kink in his back Is nil that Gross hns
to tcmlnd him of his fall. He was an

for he does not see anything to talk

In fact, such a thing Is not unusual
