South Norwallt's Electric light Plant a Success Eleventh Year of its Oporltlon Finds It Infield condition and on a P.ylfl' ”do; -———ub The following article regarding South Norwalk's municipal eloolrit' light plant. from the current number or the Municipal Journal and Engineer New iork. will be read with Interest. The eleventh year of operating the municipal electric light plant at South Norwalk Conn, finds the plant In a fine condition and on' Q paying buts. During the past yoar a number of im- provements have been made and the meter system has been introduced. The open arcs. engines, and generators of the original street lighting system. af ter eleven years of service, which more than saved their cost to the city, have been replaced by modern machinery and a higher system of economy in up oration is assured. It is the purpose of the Electric Commissioners to use. their discretion in the placing of me ters only those that have proved wasteful being compelled to install them. Many of the merchants are finding that the city service is much better and cheaper than that of prl vate concerns and advertise the fact of which railroad circles in Chunccti- cut have heard in a long time, will' discuss the matter in any way, and a rcticence which is considered signifi- i (am is being observed by all of them. I It is known that the railroad com— pany has practically purchased the Fair Haven and Westvillc Railroad Company. and that this deal will be consummated as soon as the directors of the Consolidated railroad ratify the transaction at a meeting, to he held in New York on March 12. The Consolidated road now operates trolley lines in Meriden. Greenwich. Stamford and New Canaan ‘and it aims, it is said. to control all of the trolley lines In this state. It was be— lieved. that when the railroad com- pany began negotiations for the Fair Haven and Westvillo road, it desired that line to break up long distance trolley connections between New York and Boston. but its reported desire to purchase other roads, indicates that it. intends to enter extensively into the conduct of trolley lines. If the Consolidated railroad should acquire the system of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company, itl would give the cues and towns through which its lines would pass. nl service second to none in the c-ountty. The cities, particularly, would receive attention and new extensions and im- proved rolling stock would follow. As an layestment it Hi. t-thought that the purchase would yield big profits to the railroad company, which would oner- ute both the steam and electrical roadsc in conjunction. Allan W Paige. counsel for the Con-.5 nectlcul Railway and Lighting Com-i puny, was settled yesterday; if the re port were true that negotiations are in progrebsfl fished just arrived; in Bridgeportf mm New York and hadi bitt half an hour to spend in his ofiice. He was busy and the only statement he would make was that it was the that they use city service. The resources of the plant to date o the. last report are 888.140. 46; the iota; debt. $71 600; and the surplus. $16, 640 4.6. 'I‘he total operating expenses to the year were 821.067 fit; the income 826.494.”; and the profit, 64.42668. The street lighting service has a ca pacity of 130 area. although but 102 lamps are in use. These lamps are lighted an average of 2.76% hours t yuan or 339 nights. The average year ly rate charged per night is $60: tht average cost per lamp per hour, $0.21; and the average watts per hotir slip plied for I cent, 180. The lncandee cent lamps used for lighting walks up dcr bridges are lighted 4,000 hours po year. and the rate charged for each it $6.01 per year. The commercial lighting capacity o the plant is 0.000 sixteen candlepowo lamps, there are. thirteen miles o mains. 5,030 incandescent lamps ii service, and 106 h p. connected in me. tors. The total kilowatt-hours gener ated during the. year was 524.636; th average income per kilowatt-hour wa 80.04868; the average cost wa. $0.0-ifiltl: and theI average gain $000842. The average pounds of the burned per kilowatt-hour were 8:65 and the nvvragc income per ton we placed at $12.75. The average watt obtained from each pound of fuel wert ”9.6, and the total number of privalt consumers was 286. The meter rules for lighting and port er. up to onefifth horsepower, are 1 cents per hour for the first 100 kllc watt hours; it cents for the second 10 hours: and 6 cents for 300 and over A rebate of iii per cent. is allowed or bills paid before the tenth of th mouth. If the city had be u compe, ledtto pay the rate churg the Oil: of Norwalk for lighting during in years the municipal plant has been ll service. the, cost over that by the mun cipal plant would have been 327.5891: first he had heard of such a thing if the negotiations were in progress.

March i.-—-Preei- dent Joseph I". Smith, of the, Mor- mon Church. was called to tne’stand by Senator Hoar at the opening of to- day's proceedings before the. Senate committee on privileges anti elections in the investigation of protests again- at Senate Reed Smoot. of Utah 'Sc- nator Hoar desired information on the subject of the rights of womem in the Church and whether they hold any priestly authority. Mr. Smith said the semen arc regar- ded as the enlists of the men in all matters of voting but that in holding 'priestly. authority,'i women arolnoi regarded on the sameialpnc. He ex- plained that the women have a charl- tablc association known as the W0. man's Relief Society, in which they have the authority to perform certain duties. Their authority is confined to the relieving of distress but women are not ordained high priests. apostles or el- tiers, Mr. Taylor asked about M. i“. Cowley one of the apostles and Cowicy's talks on doctrine. and transistor to a ques- tion from Senator Dubois. Mr. Smith said Mr. Cowley was elected as an ap- ostle in 1807. iReading from the De scrct Newa of June 23. 1903. regarding a speech by Mr. Sntith at the Weber State Reunion. Mr. Taylor used Mr. Smith if he was correctly reported in saying that the doctrine of plural mar- riages was a revelation by God to Joseph Smith, Jr.. and to reject that would be equivalent to a rejection of God Himself. Mr. Smith said he believed he was correctly reported. and when a list of of names of those present, including Senator Smoot, was read. Mr. Smith said the list was correct. He declared that he would not have bad the article published if be had been: consulted. Pressed for a reason. he said he was under injunction not to teach the rightfulness of polygamy, and that he had refrained from doing so in public. At the hearing today. the was a difference of opinion between enators . Hear and Forsker. which for s time , threatened to result in a serious clash. Senator Hoar asked Mr. Smith why he had avoided teaching what had been held tube a divine command, namely. polygamy, and the witness answered that It was because of the more recent manifesto stopping the practice. Sen- ator Hoar persisted that accordingto the witness' own statements the prac- tice badvnot been stopped. and Senator Floraker interposed abruptly. that the witness had gone over that matter fif- ty times, and he could see no purpose of the continued questioning along that line. Senator, Hoar resented the Inter- ruption and Senator Foraker's state- ment suggested that he had asked one question fifty times. and had received fifty answers. Hc objected to the in- ference and when Senator Foraker arose to answer he too stood up The two senators faced each other in what threatened to be a serious clash. Sen- ator Nraker-naid the senator from ammonium .“0ould say what he pleased, of course. but I have not said he asked fifty questions."
