All Long Island was completely tied up until nearly 1 o'clock this afternoon, when conditions on the Long Island Railroad began to improve. Trains had gotten to and from Jamaica to the Pennsylv anla station and to Flatbush avenue and efforts were being made to resume schedu'e. Up to that time not a train or trolley car had entered or left Jamaica this morning and to all intents and purposes every train and trolley car on the Island outside of Brooklyn should pass through that village. Around midnight trains reached Jamaica from both the Irnsylvanla station snd Flatbush avenue. One'f bucked Its way as far as Floral Park arid, came' a pole across the rail and then iought its, way back to Jamaica where it stands.

The new big depot at Jamaica is jammed to its utmost with passengers stalled there. There are some who have been there since early last evening unable to get away. This morning hundreds fought tlielr way to the derot in Jamaica hoping I to get trains, only to find everything blocked. added to the crush, and some of tbem on giving up hope and starting for home, took pity upon those stalled and invited them to shelter and food.
