Half the borough was in comparative
darkness several hours last night on account
of all the street arc electric lights and half
the lights on the mercantile circuit Of the
system being out of service. This was due
to repair work being in progress in the boiler
house of the power station. The wall at the
back of one of the boilers bulged out and
when an attempt was made to remove part of
the wall it fell in bulk and it was necessary
to rebuild it from the foundation. This work

were put in operation at 9;30 last night and
