gave the enterprise such a clean bill
of health at the special city meeting
last. night as to stump it‘d magnificent
success, which was already understood
by the great majority of the citizens.
Of late. howvrer, some few people
have taken pleasure in harping that
the plant and its equipment is out of
date, chiefly on account of the use of
the direct current system instead or
the alternating. but an etfcctual quie—

not a little satisfaction, and thc onlyl

regret was that there was not a larger
attendance at the meeting, there be-
lug hardly a hundred voters in Quitt-
llt‘i"5 llall when the. meeting was over.

Some “Hcckling” Was Done.

'l‘licrc was some little hecklliig oi’
the commissioners over the proposed
$::ti.0tlo extension of the plant. but
when the situation was explained by
the compilestoners. tlupcrintcndent Al-
licrt it). \\'lnclicstci' and the visiting
engineers. tlio meeting wttliout I'nrtliQr

ado placed its stamp of approval on .

the proposition to extend the plant.

There was some tltltthtltlll ol‘ the all
\iaulilllty of moving the whole. plant
to the city lot ill the slimc, luit l'in-
glucer Spring said it would be. unwise
to do so at the present time.

Rumors Realm“ Mr. Robina.

t'ouiiulssioncr 'l‘ltonnis itoliliis
brought up the subject of the rumors
about the plant being out oi date on
account of the alternating curicnt. and
other features. and Engineer Sprout:
made a clear exposition of the subject.
which pleased the voters.

Big Cities the Direct.

He sold in part:

“i endorse most olnpliultcully the use
of direct current here. You are in
very good company in doing so. tor
New York, lioston. t‘hlcago and other
(it the largo-ii cities have direct cur»
root systems.

"\‘l'llt‘lhei‘ it Will be advisable to
more the plant to the city lot iii tho
shore depends entirely on the growth
of the business. The plant llllit not
let outgrown the present site.

“The direct current is iioi out of

date. and it is the oiily syniciii which
permits of such it wide range. of ap-
paratus on the tines.
, "'l‘lio alternating current was iloiiliui-
oil for wide distribution. it is unwise
to consider alternating current for
your plant, because the direct current
system iiieoiii the conditions much bet-
lt‘l'.

"‘l‘lic advuiitugc‘ou ii larger capacity
of having the plant at the. idioro would
be in tldowater for oboaptir coal. con-
densation anti cooling. You will prob-
ably have to more there within tho‘
life of the apparatus it is proposed to
install at the present plant."

Mr. Sprung said further that. with a
change to the shore It would be bent to
continue the use of the direct current.
system. because their distribution dis-
tance would be practically the name at!
at the present plant.

Superintendent Winchester informs
oil the meeting that Messrs. itprong
and Druids are elapsed among the, bent
engineers in the country and him not
believed at the outset that he could
get such men to come here and appear
before a meeting of the city. Mr. Win-
chester requested Mr. bonds to say
a few words concerning his observe
tion: of the workings of the plant.

 

 

A Phenomenal Success.

"Ally private corporation would be
proud to own such a property. 1 have
not gone over the plant, but i have
lsoen the operating sheets and the.
methods in use and was overwhelmed
with such a mass of complete detail
that it would take an expert auditor to
go through it all. lint l kliow what
the results are.

“You should be very proud of the
situation, ’
"The operating expenses are nboiiil
ill) per cent. of the gross. That is llP-l
low the average oi operating expenses l
of much larger cities than South Nor-l
walk which have privately owned
plants and it in remarkable to find such
results in a municipal plant. i am
almost safe in saying that tho situa-
tion here is without parallel."

S. t‘. l’nlmor ciillinl attention to the
fact that tlictroaolutlon as presented
to the meeting would have to he;

the council has. and the latter felt
that in so large an expenditure the up;

Mr. Keogh said he Would like to ask it

plant that it is necessary to full back

Frank Moss. assistant district at~

the motion for the imposition of the
sentence of death.

Mr. Scott. replying for Wolter. said
he already had made all the. legal mo-
tions necessary, “and had advised his

Hunt to do but to impose sentence.

When udge Jodie Foster began to
