Lights Go Out In City After Plant Transfer
A Cuisen representative and J A Downey the electric light manager explained the long outage last night linked to a new plant transfer from the old to the new unit. Downey said the handover by Denver supervisor Mcdonald caused friction but the city should expect improved service now that the plant is fully in operation. A malfunctioning on duty man slept, causing fires to die and steam production to cease, but the company claims it no longer affects current service. Meanwhile, railroad blacksmiths converge in Cleveland for their national convention, with branches nationwide and a ladies auxiliary, as delegates plan business sessions and recreational activities.
