Street Hallway System of Buffalo, Tiretity Seven Miles Distant, Operated by Electricity Furnished From the Great Pen Falls Turned on at Midnight and Everything Worked Smoothly. BUFFALO, Nov. At midnight last night the turning of a switch in tho big powerhouse at A Niagara Falls completed a circuit which caused Niagara river to flow up hill, so to speak, by returning a fraction of its resistless cuergy, which had already, swept past tho gates of Buffalo, back into that city, 27 miles distant. The harness was. buckled that, hitches the' factory wheels of Buffalo to: the cataract ou carth.
This morning the street cars of this city were moved by fall's power. Hereafter the falls must work enough to carn their livings The buckling of the harness could. have been done as woll 12 hours earlier, but owing to the fact that tho father of William B. Rankin of New York. secretary of the Niagara Falls Power conipany, is a clergyman, and in.
deference to his wishes the Niagara Falls' power wag not turned into the trausmitting system at 00011 yesterday, as had boon expected.

The distance covered by the line between Battalo and the falls is 27 miles and the expert electricans who had the work in charge estimate that the loss of the elegy, will be less than 10 per cent, andmay, not exceed five. Careful testa are to be made in this connection, the tests covering both might and day and clearus wellas rainy weather. Electricians are particular attention to this as on the perfect insulation of the carrying lines depends much of tho future success of the andertaking.
The line that- has been built to carry the current bearing wires is of most substantial naturo, Unlike the ordinary telegraph line the poles are placed very close together and are braced in -such a tanner 08 to proof against to overhead line extouds from the power nt the falls to the city limits of Buffalo where the wires enter cement conduits. On the overhead. line giass insulators aro found to the strain and porcelain were made specially to hold the wires, Theso insulators were subjected to a current: 80,000 volts There are at present our the poles cigbt cables each with a carrying capacity oft 5.000 horse power, or 40,000 horse power all The poles are of such a character, however, that this number of cables can be doubled without subjecting themsto a greater strain than The only coutract made so far for the delivery of power in Buffalo by tho power company is that with the Buffalo Street.
