DYNAMOS ON STRIKE.
HARTFORD STREET RAILROAD
LINES ALMOST TIED UP.

Only a Few Gers Run Early Yesterday
Morning Nearly she Entire Motor
Apparatus at Power House Gave Out
Owing TO Overwork.
Hartford, Feb. 20--It was a strike on
the part of the nine dynamos which are
the whole push when it comes to run
ming cars on the Hartford street rail-
road, and it came very near tying up
the road this morning.
Trouble at the power house" was
all the uptown trolley employees could
say in reply to hundreds of anxious in
cuiries.
Finally an attache of the company
was found who ventured to diagnose
the disorder Tired out" he called it,
referring to the dynamos. He said they
had been overworked all winter, but
particularly during the past few days
when, extra power was required to run
the snow plows and scrapers and to
operate the cars over snow-drifted
tracks.
The trouble began last evening when
one dynamo after another began to
show a disposition to quit work. The
late evening cars were run with less
frequency than usual and the regular
schedule became a memory only among
the trolley men. Many theatergoers
and others who were out late had to
walk home and some from the suburbs
stayed In the city all night, much
against their will.
At an early hour this morning when
the car service for the day should have
been resumed, there was only an apol-
ogy for a resumption. A brave effort
was made to keep all lines running.
This was accomplished in way by
turning what little power there was
available into some half a dozen sec
lions of the thirty-two sections at the
power house which are ordinarily sup
piled. Cars We're run on the lines fed
by these sections for a time and then
the power was switched on to others. 1t
was a rather pleasing operation for the
newly favored lines, but decidedly dis
couraging for those which had been
getting part service.
East Hartford suffered early and hun
dreds had to either walk or wait long
time for cars. More people walked to
the city from East Hartford than at
any previous time in years. Many
teams were pressed into service.
At about noon the dynamo began to
work again and transmit sufficient
power.

QUICKLY ExTINGUIsHED.

Fire at Wooster School Caused by Mice
Through mice eating away the ass
bestos protecting the woodwork near
the furnace in the basement of Wooster
school small blaze was caused yester-.
day morning at $3.50 o'clock, half an
hour before the first session Of the
school began. There were no pupils In
the building at the time, and conse-9
quently no great excitement. Had les
sons been in progress lively time
might have resulted. The pupils are all
trained In the fire drill and undoubted-
ly hurriedly conducted exit would
have been made. The blaze did not
prove serious. A still alarm was sent
to No. rs house, and when the f1remen
arrived the janitor was playing a gar
den hose upon the woodwork. Two
chemical fire extinguishers were used
and the blaze quickly put out.

ITHACA'sE PIDEMIC WORSE THAN
NEW HAVEN'S,

DR.. Frank Wright Of the health de-
partment in discussing the typhoid
fever epidemic here and in Ithaca from
a point Of comparison, said that the
epidemic which ragged here in April,
1891, was very light as compared with
the Ithaca epidemic, so far as the rel
alive population Of the two cities is
concerned.
Ithaca is credited with populat ton of
$4,000, and has had 447 cases of typhoid.
New Haven has over 100000 more pop
ulation than Ithaca and the estimated
number of cases was 500.

est and most sensational melodramas,
dealing mainly with true incidents and

comes to the Grand Opera house next
Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday
nights. There will be holiday matt
nee Monday and the regular matinee
Wednesday. The play is from the pen
of Theodore Kremer. one of the great
est writers of criminal events in New
York city, and is by far his best under
taking. He has chosen for his plot
scenes from the famous Payne Moore
badger game and has succeeded in
showing TO the public to what extent
such a game can be played. He calls
to his aid real facts connected with the
above story and has developed truly
sensational drama. The interest of the
audience is held throughout the play
and while the serious parts run through
the piece there is plenty of comedy in
both directions A strong feature are
the various scenes shown, such as the
New York Tombs prison, illustrating
to the public how a prisoner can es.
cape therefrom in broad daylight An
other scene is the underground railway
showing the Broadway cable cars in
full operation. One scene shows the
badger game in full blast. This is pos
itively one of the greatest and most
realistic scenes ever attempted and is
really truthfully portrayed. The seem
ic, electrical and mechanical effects
shown are the most sensational in char
acter and will doubtless win the ap-
pIause of the audience. One of the
strongest acting companies that coulc
be selected has been engaged, and a
great performance can be expected
