mow YORK. Oct. Lil—Explosion of,
a trim” of dynamite at the 110th street.
station of the [senor avenue subway
lillt‘ early today, did considerable
damage at that station, smashing the
ticket agent's booth. injured the agent'
slightly. broke the electric lamps and
windows in the kiosks, tore off a por-
tion of the sidewalk overhead and
broke the windows‘ in some of the
apartment houses nearby. There was
no train at the station or near it at
the moment. Traffic in the subway
was suspended for half an hour or
more as the result of the blast.

subway einployes at that station
said they saw no one loitering about
and did not know how the explosive,
was brought into the station. The‘

only theory they could suggest was
that it might have. been set off because;
of the street railway strike whioh‘bas.
been in progress since early, in Bap-f
tember. .
The explosive evide'ntly was placed,

. upon one of the tracks at the. southern'
end of the slation platform. The exa
plosiott took place before daylight. ”I
tore up one of the sailway lies. broke“
