INTERRUPTION OF
RAILWAY SERVICE
The main shaft of the Bullock gene
rator of the Augusta-Aiken Railway
and Electric Corporation, which Is the
direct current machine that runs the
city’s street railway cars, broke this
morning at 10:45 o’clock and necessi
tated the starting up of the old steam
plant. Car service was Interrupted for
about an hour.
The management makes the follow
ing statement:
“A new shaft has been telegraphed
for but It will propably be sometlmi
before It reaches here, as It Is not car
ried In stock and will have to bo
forged. In the meantime the city ser
vice is liable to be more or less In
terrupted. as It is being taken care of
with auxiliary machines.
"There seems to be an Impression
around town that our new power from
Stevens Creek supplies both railway
and lighting. This Is erroneous, as the
Stevens Creek power Is all alternat
ing current and Is used only for light
ing and power, and on the interurban
railway. The city railway Is run en
tirely by direct current machines,
which are situated at our Fifteenth
street power house.”

the fire would have likely caused n

were confined to the second story,
though they spread from the trim

where there were stored quantities of
caskets. Mr. Vernon Elliott, of tlm
firm, who was the only member pres

them running up as high In value as

Oonslderuble water damage was sus

The proposal would carry out the
