Energy is conveyedto the carpenter shop, for example, by four250,000 circular mils cables, transmitting poly-phase currents. The punch shop is suppliedwith similar energy through eight 210,000 cir-cular mils cables and the warehouse by four500,000 circular mils cables. At the variousmotors four connections are made to the mains,through two double jointswitches and New Station of Boston WestEnd Company. TWO 30-HP, TWC-PHASE MOTORS DRIVING LINES OF SHAFTING. The West End Street Rail-way Company, of Boston, hassecured a large plot of landin Charleston, and will erecton it a new power plant will have a capacityof 2,000 horse-power whichwill be sufficient for operatingthe Charleston, Maiden andEverett cars. The power nowused on these lines eithercomes from Cambridge or ispurchased.
