POWER FOR TRACTION co.
otter Creek 10 Turn Wheels OF bur
liDgtOn street Cars.

". F. Hendee. J. J. Flynn. Elias Lyman
and C. w. Brownell, ti'e recent purchasers
of the otter Creek water power at Yer
Eennes. have Just received the deed of
that property from DR.. Seward Webb. The
power is considered by experts to he one
of the best in the State and the primary
object of the purchasers was the pro-
lection of the Burlington Traction COM
pany.
For the past few wears the Traction
company has been getting its power from
the Burlington FIGURING company and It
has not had sufficient supply. When n
plant Is installed at Vergennos how
ever. there will be enough and to spare
An electrical engineer will be employed
at once to make preliminary survey with
the object OF asccrtaning how to get the
greatest amount OF power out of the
falls.
II is expected that the falls will devel-
op 1900 horsepower in low water and 500
or 500 horsepower in high water. The
new owners of the fails will build a sta
tion at Nsrgenncs and install three mo-
tors. The power will be brought to Bur
lngton over - miles of wire. Three wires
will be used and about 90" poles
distributing station will he Installed
in this city at the car barns where the
storage plant now is. The generators from
the Burlington FIGURING company and the
American Wooden company's plants will
be brought to the new building at the car
barns Two new motors will be required
there to transfer the power to the above
generators. The generator at the Flouring
comp;'ny's plant is 375 kilowatt machine
and will develop 800 horsepower the one
at the wooden company's plant Is 300
kilowatts and develops $50 horsepower
The plant at NcrEennes as it now stands
consists of about 90 acres of land on
which are located the works Of the Havi-
land Shade Roller company. a saw mill
and several other buildings. The IIaviland
company will continue to operate under a
lease
While the first object of the purchase
was t. protect the interests Of the Bur
ling on Traction company and the prop
erty Will ultimately probably be turned
over to that company. W. f. Hendce said
Y"Hterday that the people OF Nergonncs
would lie taken care of and their needs
supplied. After the first object OF the pur-
chase is satisfied. namely. the protection
of the Traction company, the people of
Ncrgennes can have what power they
want Then power will be sold along tho
limo between Nergennes and Burlington
and, lastly, power will he sold in this city.
DR.. Webb has ARA nged 10 take 100 horse
power for lights and power on his propcr-
~. He will use l.GO lights Hereafter the
car service in burlington will he ample
