CHIMES SILENCED
WELLINGTON POST OFFICE CLOCK. SMALL BELLS DISLODGED BY EARTHQUAKE. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Wellington’s post office clock chimes have been silent since Wednesday’s earthquake. Two of the smaller bells were dislodged, without affecting the mechanism of the clock. When the bells will be heard again depends upon the clock tower proving to be structurally sound. If it is found to be sound they will be replaced and if it is not sound there is more urgent work needing attention than the clock.
