Electrical Dinturbance.

Peculiar electrical conditions prevailed for
several hours last night that greatly puz-
zled manipulators of electrical apparatus.
There was sufficient electrical tension in the
atmosphere TO permit telegraph and tele-
phone Instruments to work without the aid
OF the batteries During the Early part of
the evening the big fire bell in the central
engine house sounded sevsrai single tap
alarms. The impression was created that
live electric light or motor wire had como
into contact with the fire alarm wires, hut
investigation proved this theory to be in
correct. The circuits were found to work
just as we'll without the aid OF the battery
as with II. The interference appeared to be
