It was announced today that the city would build a trolley station on the Queensboro Bridge. In accordance with the recommendation Commissioner F. J. H. Kracke, the Public Service Commission today adopted an order directing the trolley lines operating over the bridge to make a stop at the proposed new station.

Action was taken by the Commission upon application by tho city which is building a big storehouse on Blackwell's Island and operating three freight and two passenger elevators between the ground the levels of the Queensboro Bridge. The city now intends to eliminate a large part of the expense to which it has been subjected through the necessity of operating ferries to and fro between Blackwell's Island and Manhattan. Commissioner Kracko says the trolley companies, who made no objection to the adoption of the order, suggested that a watchman be installed at a point where vehicles would cross the trolley tracks on the bridge to reach the city's new storehouse. Wjhile expressing the opinion that possibly crossing gates and watchmen are necessary, he did not think that the Commission should include in its order any such direction as to the regulation of truffle, on the ground that the municipal authorities have ample powers and jurisdiction. He held that the Queensboro Bridge is a public highway, over which pedestrians, vehicles and cars operate and travel in the same manner as on the public streets of the city, and safety regulations should he established and enforced in the same manner as on the public streets.

On this score he said: "The Commission, of course, is always concerned with the protection of passengers cm surface cars, and will not countenance any practices or operation by a street railroad entailing dangers against which safeguards may properly be required of the street railroad. But in matters of recognized municipal control of highway traffic, the necessary steps to be taken to minimize the danger of collisions between cars and vehicles passing to and from the storehouse should be left with the municipal authorities." It will be at least three months before the necessary construction work nn the station can be completed. On Commisisoner Kracke's recommendation, the Commission's order con-'ains a provision that all cars shall stop at the trolley station, irrrespec-five of whether passengers are to be taken on or let off. It is believed that the new trolley station will be of Treat convenience and a time-saver to thousands of persons who are ire obliged to visit the institutions on Blackwell's Island.
