    HUMMING AND SINGING OF TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE WIRES
    The humming and singing of telegraph and telephone wires along the streets are caused by the vibrations
    that are created by changes of atmospheric temperature, and especially through the action of cold, as a
    lowering of temperature induces a shortening of the wires extending over the whole of the conductor. A
    considerable amount of friction is produced on the supporting bells, thus inducing sounds both in the
    wires and the poles.
