to darkness as were the towns be-
tween Greenwich and this city, who
secure their light and power from the
Cos Cob plant.
For some little time the lights were
out, they then flashed on for a. second
or two. then went out again and flick-
ered about for a space of some fifteen
minutes.
It was not generally known what.
had happened at the plant] some be-
lelving that lighting might have
struck the Cos Cob plant. this was
not so, however, a.- a strike of the
helpers there, in sympathy with the
