ELECTRIC LIGHTING IN WELLINGTON.
[PSSSS ASSOCIATION TBLSattAlf.] WELLINGTON, May 14. The electric light is still giving dissatisfaction. One of the arguments used in its favor was that it would be kept going all night, and there is no doubt but for this there would have been more opposition to the project. For months past it has been shut off at 1 a.m., and it is understood this time will be adhered to except in session time, when an hoar or two extra will be given. The Times this morning reiterates its assertion that the ratepayers are not being honestly dealt with, and throws the whole blame upon the City Council.
