newed interruption of local street car
service by loss of electric power lasted
until mid-forenoon yesterday Inyesti-

were cut above Penacook, putting out OF
commission both power lines from the
Eastman Falls station to this city.

and the towns around Lake Sunapee de-
nendant unou the Newport Electric Light
Co. for light and power. All of these
tcwns were in darkness Monday night
