the tragedy ''Stratord," which was pro-
ing the leading role. '.Sardello" and
The Blot On the 'Scutcheon''
also failed, but "Peppa Passes"
was more successful. In 1855

The Electric Light War Inaugurated at
New York.
New YORK. Dec. H.-At 9:45 o'clock this
morning Commissioner of Public Works
Gilroy sent out four gangs of men to cut
down the poles and wires of the electric
light companies. Inspectors of the board
of electrical control accompanied them TO
point out the poles on which dangerous
wires were strung. The men in each case
started from the central stations of the
electric light companies and worked out
ward, cutting off communication in
the greater number of instances
with all outlying points. Legal rep
resentatiVeS of the companies asked
tie commissioners to grant them time eth
er to remove or repair any wires alleged to
be defective in insulation, but their request
was peremptorily refused. Then they
warned him that both he and the city
would be held responsible, for any damage
caused by his actions. The companies are
actively seeking another Injunction.
