Ginrlottetwm was s city with- out. water or electrical power yes- terday for almost twelve hours when a main 14-inch water Line from the reservoir was cracked by a "ciamsheil" digger which was excavating a, culvert outlet across the Mount Edward Road some two miles from the city. - It is estimated the loss to busi- 116s! and other firms depending on electricity for power and re- frigeration, will run into thous- ands of dollars. Many homes, un- aware that their water supply had been ,shut off, suffered in- convenience and scores of homes whose cc-oking equipment is elec- ideally-operated had to be con- tent with makeshhft meals. Many restaurants were unable to accom- modate their customers for the same reason. . The water, after being shut off at 10 a.m. yesterday, was restored about 9 p.m. and the electric light and power at 11.30. The power shutdown affected both local newspapers. The Patriot was unable to go to press in the afternoon, and it was not until early this morning that The Guar. dlan. after a day and partial night stoppage. got underway with great- ly curtailed ‘wire news, typo get- ting and stereotyping services. Only place unaffected by the power stoppage was the Prince Edward Theatre which ran its scheduled afternoon and evening picture shows with an emergency plant installed some time ago. The accident occurred yam-day. morning shortly before 9 o’clock, when an 911111111599 of the Island Construction Company, at the rc- quest of the Provincial Department of Public Works, was operating a digger for culvert installation. Ap- parently he had received‘ no in- itructions to watch for the buried pipeline. Oivlc’ oilficials, on the other hand, claim that they had no knowledge that this work was underway, and therefore no means of warning against an accident. The crash of the heavy bucket split the cast-iron pipe, causing a heavy leakage of water though not. break- ing the pipe entirely, It was re- paired by employees of the Servers and Water Department, who cut out and replaced about seven feet of the d aged section. The o" eration took several hours, and when completed difficulty was experienced Ln reopening the water main valve at the reservoir, which had been closed for the repairs. ‘This caused further delay. It is understood that there is an cmcrgency water main on the Mal- pequc Road which in the event of fire could be turned on, but it was claimed that use of this line yes- terday woalld have resulted in the water flooding back through the broken main. and that the break could not be repaired under such conditions.
