HADE fl NICE MESS OF IT
Councils Sorry 'forr Not Malting An
Electric Light Dicker.
ONE KIND Of FINANCIERING
In 1804 City Fathers Rodo a Free Horse
to Death Until the Illuminating,
i Heat and Power Company
Groaned-lllg Bills Now.
There will be some loud "howling, no
doubt, heard from councilmen when
they areaoked to approve of tho bills of
the ttcrnntari' Illuminating, Heat and
INiwer company for lighting the city
of licet and police and engine houses
for the month beginning April 1 and
ended April 30, IS'.lfi.
The Illuminating company was
granted the privilege In July, 1XS0, of
operating Its poles nnd wires on the
streets of ithts city and In return agreed
to furnish 'the city ofllces with free
light and engine and polkia houses that
were in1 reach of Hs lines. The resolu
tion passed the city councils and was
signed on July 9, WO, by Colonel K. II.
Hippie, who was then mayor of the city
of Scranton. The resolution in full Is
as follows:
Resolved, Ry the common council of
the. city of 4cranton, 'the select council
concurring, that permission Is hereby
granted to the Scranton Illuminating,
Hent and Power company to erect poles
nnd stretch wires along said streets
and alleys of said city for the proper
distribution of electricity for furnish
ing light, and that the said company
will light city oflleea and engine houses
within tho reach of said line free of ex
pense, nnd; will nlso give use of poles for
flro alarm, provided 'the sold company
dona not Impede travel or Interfere
with the rights of property owners, and
provided, further, .that the said poles
be placed Inside the curb Hues.
Declined to Dicker.
Several months ago a measure was
Introduced In the Interest of the com
pany which councils refused to pass.
The measure provided that the com
pany should be relieved from furnish
ing free light above tho number of
lights It first furnished the city, and
that all lights above the original num
ber should be paid for on a nominal
basis. It was by refusing to comply
with this request thut a, nose) was bitten
to spite a face.
The city received free light until April
1, of the present year. The company of
late had been complaining of making
no profit In consequence of the heavy
saddle of free lights It had to carry,
and more than once wanted to sell the
plant and franchises to the city. The
company complnlned that the number
of free lights has Increased ten fold
In ten years, and It now has to pay a
tax on Its poles of 60 cents each; so
that on March 11 Mayor Connell signed
the following resolution that passed In
select council on March 7, and had been
Introduced and passed In the common
branch on Feb. 28:
Whereas, A communication from the
above mentioned company has been re
ceived by councils, setting forth that
the agreement to furnish the city offices
and engine houses with free light Is
unjust and burdensome, the number
of lights (meaning free lights) In 1886
being seventy-two and whereas the
number now is over GOO; and
Whereas two competing companies
have subsequently been gran.ted the
same privileges without any exactions,
and, further, a tax on all" electric poles
has been Imposed by councils and Is
now In force.
Therefore, Be It resolved,' by the com
mon council of the el'ty of Scranton, the,
select council concurring, that the
words, viz: "And that the said com
pany will light city offices and engine
houses within the reach of said lines
free of expense," be and the same Is
hereby repealed.
Be It further resolved, That the city
clerk Is hereby instructed to advertise
for sealed proposals for the lighting of
the Municipal building, engine and sta
tion houses of the city of Scranton, said
lighting to be for one year, beginning
April 1, 1895.
Figures That Aro Eloquent.
City Clerk Lavelle received the fol
lowing bills yesterday which are for
light furnished from April 1 to April 30,
1805:
Municipal building $79 01
Columbia Hose company 23 10
Hook and Ladder company... 30 10
Crystal Hose company 26 51
Nay Aug Engine company.... 25 05
Phenex Hose company 22 66
Franklin Engine company.... 27 02
A number of the city officials uttered
loud exclamations when they heard of
the size of the bills and wiped the
sweat off their foreheads; some of them
said that the company was undoubted
ly making up for lost time.
At Thursday night's meeting of com
mon council the electric light company
presented Its bid In accordance with
the resolution passed by councils and
agred to furnish light at 45 cents a
month per lamp, with a rebate of 10
per cent. If the bill Is paid on or before
the 20th of every month. There will be
some music heard when the above bills
get before the auditing committee and
then before councils.
