LATE FOR WORK
MANY AUCKLANDERS SUBURBAN TRAINS HELD UP. [ Par Prr»«n Association. 1 AUCKLAND, March 10. Hundreds of suburbanites who come into the city daily were late for work this morning. There had been an accident on the railway line between the racecourse siding at Ellerslie and the railway station, and this was responsible for delaying about a dozen passenger trains, as well as several goods trains. In some cases people coming into business were nearly two hours on the journey from the time they left their homes. The cause of the accident was the breaking of an axle on a goods train, and this held up traffic on the line for some time.
