ELECTRIC FIRE.
Switchboard in the Telephone Exchange
Burned Out.

bnTntu Ouls
Richmond came very near having disas
trOus fire sunday night. One of the city telt-
phone wires became crossed with the trolly
wire of the Union Passenger Railway
about seven O'Clock in the evening, and the
current was 80 strong that one of the switch
boards in the Telephone Exchange was
burned out in flash. The brass connec-
tions on the board melted like lead.
and but for the presence of
mind of Mr.. Wyatt, the night
operator in charge, the whole Of the
Iianewinckle building might have soon
been i'm flames. He stood at his post and
managed TO keep the flames smothered until
he had requested the officers at pOwer-house
to turn of his current, and before this could
be done the consent of the superintendent
had to be gained. After the current was
turned of it was an easy matter to eX-
tinguish the fire. The telephone service
was suspended for about an hour and a
half
