having lighting that was still provided mainly by candles or gas表结果，或者表原因，这里两种解释都不对。

having modify的对象不清楚

there was....homes....单复数不一致

1. 主句是there be句型，动词分词确实逻辑主语，而通过句意判断逻辑主语是homes 2. there be 单复数不对，one percent of homes要用复数。

首先，was should be changed to were; 其次， having lighting that was still provided mainly by candles or gas这个结构很奇怪
