Harrisburg Gas Works.
Humnssonis, Nov. 12, 1801.
ON AND after the first day of December
this company will be under the necessity of increas:
lag tha price of Gas to $3 60 per 1,000 cubic feet. There
are trusty reasons which compel this company to make
the increas?; and in order to inform the public of the
cause'Whieh compels them to do so, we beg leave to men
tion thelollowing facts, viz:
Gird, the article most extensively used for the manufac
ture of Vas, was formerly purchased for $3 85 per ton
now the same article costs $945. Lime, another item, was
formerly purchased at 9 cents per bushel; now we pay 20
cent,.
Retorts and other castings extensively used were for
merly purchased at 2,14 cents per pound; now we pay 6
cents.
Pipe of every description has increased in price more
than.one hundred per cent.
Fire brick, meters, main, &c., have advanced morethan
two hundred per cent.
Labor and everything connected with the manufacture
of Gas hal increased more than one hundred per cent,
and the company is therefore reluctantly compelled to add
50'cents to the price of Gas per 1,000 cubic feet, on and
after the above mentioned day. In addition to the above
enormous increase of materials and labor, the company
pays a tax of 20 emirs on every 1,000 feet of Gas mann
factured, to the United States Government, in addition to
the mewl license.. The last legislature has also laid eta:
of THBBB ass CENT: 13888161081.0 the 8180818801,0f018 paid
oncapitaletoetanddtvidends. Time increased taaations
alone amount to more than one half of the increase per
