ALMOST FINISHED
City Plant Will Soon Have Customers
Connected.
Expect to Begin Changing Fire Alarm
System Aug. 1st.
Arc Lights Ordered Recently TO Be
Installed At Once.

After a couple of very strenuous
months the linemen and electricians
at the municipal lighting plant have
the wiring to private houses we'll in
hand and it will be completed soon.
At the present time only a compare
lively few of the customers of the New
Ulm Electric Light company are
receiving their current from the old
wires and Superintendent Adolph
Wagner expects to have all the
patrons connected with the new cir
cult before this month closes. Along
Broadway the connections are com
pleted and several long stretches of
wire have been taken down. 1t will be
removed as needed and when time will
allow the poles are to be taken out.
Mr.. Wagner expects to begin work
upon changing the fire alarm system
about August 1st. This is large
undertaking and will require three or
four weeks before it is entirely COM
pleted. 1t is the intention to have the
line run. through the alleys instead Of
on the streets and it will follow the
arc line almost entirely, it being nee
essary to set only fifteen new poles.
When in place the system will be so
arranged that alarm boxes may be
installed at any street corner between
Franklin and Front and Ninth North
and Sixth South streets. 1t will have
four circuits instead of two, as at the
present time, and tap bells will, be
installed in the livery barns. The
new line will allow of it's covering far
more territory and it should answer
all the needs of the city for years to
come.
Poles are being painted at the plant
for a number of extensions which are
to be made. One will run to the Auf-
derheide brickyard and the arc lights
ordered for the corners near the Con-
gregational church, Turner Hall, the
Lutheran church and other places are
to be put in at once. Since the hot
weather set in Supt. Wagner has sold
thirty-fve fans in New Ulm and there
are now three; motors in use, making
a noticeable increase in the amount of
current used during the day run.
The new shaft for the smaller Cor
liss engine has been received and an
engine expert is expected at any time
to put it in place. The matter of
changing the deep we'll pumps, how
ever, is not being agitated greatly.
The busy season in the waterworks
department will soon be at an end and
the purchase of the new pump will
probably be allowed to go over until
fall.
