Nkw Yoiik, Jan. ID. It was nu early
winter morning on Manhattan Island.
City Hull park was deserted. To the
stranger w!m tho day before had first
watched Now York'H strenuous thou

each other after tho dollars the plnco

in tho glare of tho not yet extinguished
electrio liglit thero camo from the east
tho dull Bound of tramping feet. Ho
turned and saw n thin stream of men
nnd Iiovb descend tho stnirs from tho
Brooklyn bridge. It was met at Broad
way by another stream that had como
up Barclay street. Before cither of these
had dispersed a third camo up Cortlaudt;
then Liberty street added Its quota to
tho rapidly growing throng.
Up Broadway nnd down Broadway
they camo, first by dozens and then by
fifties; every aurfaco car brought Its
load; crowds poured in from Fulton,
Wall, Bark place and other cross streets,
und from tho elevated railroad stations
camo thousands more. Iu half nu hour
tho park was crowded, nnd Park row
was tilled with a hustling, jostling mul
titude. Now York's industrial army
had begun another day's battle. The
advance guard of this army wns com
posed ultiiost exclusively of men nnd
boys, but us the minutes passed women
and gitfs begun to appear, ami long bo
foro t) o'clock they formed a fair propor
tion of tho mass.
While tho stranger was watching tho
influx of peoplo at City Hull park other
thousands wero jiouring into tho city at
various polntH along tho island's periph
ery. Railroad trains wero hurrying
down tho mountain sides und across the
marshes of northern New Jersey, nloug
tho shoro of the sound from Connecticut,
over tho level reaches of Long Island,
down tho Hudson's picturesquo banks
and from tho uttermost parts of Stnten
i Island, and tho rivers nnd bay wcro
olive with great ferryboats, each Iwur
ing hundreds nnd some thousands of
' peoplo to their daily tasks. Aud tho vast
inultitmlo was mado up mostly of Now
Yorkers who do not llvo in Now York.
It wns not until about 0 o'clock in tho
ovonlng of the samo day that tho stran
ger fully understood why so many Now
YoYkcrs have established homes outside
tho metropolis, and why tho call for
"rapid transit" is so loud. Then ho
boarded nu elevated railroad train nt tho
CHtv Hnll Htn.lnn for il rido tut town. Ho 1
will never do it again if he can help it.
Although a well mannered man by mi
turo nnd training, ho was obliged to
struggle with other men, nnd oven with
women, to gain n foothold on the plat
form of on aerial car. Then, Buffering
from a rain of fine cinders, trodden ution
and crushed by his fellow martyrs nnd
shivering in n raw wind, ho had to stand
during n half hour of torturo while the
train drugged ita Blow length to Forty-
Becond street.
Tho next morning ho read iu tho news
papers a report of u meeting of the rapid
transit commission, which camo near
breaking up in a row over the method
that should bo employed to relieve tho
city's congestion. To tho stronger It was
as clear us it has lieen for years to New
Yorkers, both Muuhuttaneso and nub-
urban, that, if tho metroiwlls is to keep
as residents a titho of tho peoplo auuu-
ally added to its working nrmy, hotter
1 facilities for intrnmurnl trnnsit must bo
speedily provided. To tho stranger it
. was apparent also that tho means is n
' secondary mutter; more rupld transit is
an imperative necessity.
A VISION OiT MANY CAIU).
I It is not likely tliat many peoplo, either
in or out of Now York, havo even a faint
idea of tho enormous proportions that
'city and suburban luisscngcr truffle have
reached hero. Tho stranger, lwlng of nn
inquiring turn of mind, looked up boiuo
of tho figures, and "enormous" Is not ono
whit too strong nn udjective to apply to
them.
About 450,000,000 irtissengers nro car
ried annually, or nlmost 1,250,000 n day,
by tho lines of
tho city limits.

Tho exact figures for
1803 have not yet Ihh-ii mado public, but
tlurlnar 1801 tho number was 4u,uo;i,vuii.
Of this total tho elevated roads carry
more than 40 per cent., or rising 500.000
day. In 1801 tho daily overaso wo
608, HIS. Perhaps two-thirds of nil pas
sengers ou surface and "L" trains, ol
O.'W.OtX) iv day, are going to aud returning
fponi work. Though New York's trans
ixjrtutlon facilities aro better than those
of any other city In America, if not in
tho world, they uro now painfully Inade
quate to tho proper itorformanco of the
work they nro called ujkhi to do,
Tho elevated railroad lines have in
service 1I8 curs and 2111 locomotives.
These, allowing 60 feet to each car and
20 feet to each locomotive, would stretch
over more than 10 miles of the llvj miles
of rlovaled trucks in tho city.
Tho surface railroads of Now York
operate 208 miles of track, over which
about 2,600 cars (2,1178 iu 1801) aro hauled
by about 6,100 horses (5,280 In 1H()).
Thero aro -IU lines of surface road, 2?
running longitudinally of tho island nnd
23 ncross town. Allowing -10 feet for
each car nnd team, tho cars of tho sur
face lines would, if placed on ono track,
cover between II) and 20 miles of rail.
The "L" trains and surface cars of Man
hattan Island stretched in n lino would
reach nioro thnn thirty miles, or twice
us fur as from Buffalo to Niagara Falls.
Tho number of jhtsohs employed by tho
olovated railroad in nil cnpaclties is, so
Colonel Haiti tells mo, 5,000 in round
numbers, ami 15,000 peoplo at least gain
n livelihood in various ways from tho
surface roads, 20,000 in all living ou

enough eoplo to fill o city about us

trafllc supported mainly by New Yorkers
who do not llvo in Now ork.
Twenty-
eight railroads terminate on or opposite
Manhattan Island, and thirty-one ferry
lines, exclusive of those going to Black
woll's, Randall's, Bod loo's mid Kills is
lands, land passengers on Manhattan's
shores. In the nature of things it is uot
possible to give exact figures iu this di
rection, but Colonel Dickinson, o local
railroad man of repute, who has patiently
gathered tho statistics, estimates that
more than 1112,000 nrrivo hero every day
by all ways, Including railroads, ferries
nnd bridge, who enrn their dally bread
in Now York.
To transport this vnstmultltudo would
require 570 railroad trains of ten cars
ench, each car carrying sixty passengers.
Five hundred and seventy locomotives
would haul these trains, and allowing
sixty feet for each car they range from
fifty-four to sixty-four feet in length
and thirty feet for each locomotive, tho
combined train that should carry them
nil would bo more than sixty miles long.
Allowing six men to each of tho 570
trains a low estimate 11,120 men would
gain a livelihood by running this train.

He wur reully pleased to bco her. nls
