building brenst works and (Ul'l'Iuc

to the proper channel, lesterday after
noon the llrst floors of all the houses were
deserted. The fnmllies were huddled in

make arrangements to cook their meals
in the houses of more fortunate neighbors

On the embankment of the Hendlng

A Troublesome Vlre.
None of the street electric lights nnd
only the nre commercial lights north of
Centro street were burning Inst night.
The fault was duo to n wire crossing the
electrlo rnllwny trolley, but where the
point of contact wns nono of the light
company's men could tell. When George
Seager went about town yesterday to put
new enrbons in the Inmps he learned of
tho contact by receiving n shock which
made him dnnce. Ho received the shock
from tho lamp in use at tho Lehigh
Valley depot. A hunt for the crossed
wire wns at once begun, but although
two men worked iu the storm nil day
nnd fnr Into the night they were
unsuccessful. Tho hunt wns re
sumed ngnin this morning nnd thepoint
ui mu was lociueu at ino corner ot
Centre and Howers streetH, whero an old
telegraph wire crossed the trolley of tho
Lakoiido railway. Tho wire was red hot
and great precaution was required iu tho
work of separating the two. While the
telegraph wire was being cut nnd pulled
