A short-circuit on the transmission line? or the Southern Public Utilities Company between Portman Shoals and the city, caused by a wire coming in contact with an extremely wet pole, at a point Just west of the home of Mr. Oliver Bolt, crippled the several cotton mills about the city using elec tric current for several hours yester day. %. \ x The trouble occurred shortly after 9 o'clock yesterday morning and by 2 o'clock in the afternoon the cause of trouble;had been discovered. By J o'clock the damage had been repaired and the transmission Unes restored to service. As soon as the transmission line went out of com m h "Ion the ste^ra turbine auxiliary plan: in the city was fired up. - This was started working about. 1 o'clock and supplied power until the Portman Shot Is power was brought Into service-again. Manager H. A. Orr o' the Anderson branch of the Southern Public Utili ties Company stated .that the short circuit was caused' by a cross arm on a cedar pole giving way slightly and allowing the wire to come in contact wPh'the pole. The pole forms the point of/an angle In the line and for this reason the cross arm had.to give way only a few inches In order to cause the wire to come into contact with the pole. The particular pole where the cross circuit occurred is of cedar and had become thoroughly soaked with rain, which caused the wire ?o become grounded as soon as It touched. The Anderson Cotton Mills, the Orr Mills, the Townsend Twine Mill and the Equinox Mill were affected by the disabling or the transmission line. The power from rne Gregg Shoals plant kept the'city tfuppjled with current, so Industries of. a smaller nature were not affected by the trouble, on the Portman Shoals Uno.
