IRE CITY GAS WoRKs.-The following
communication was sent to Councils Yesterday by
the City solicitor in reply to reso ution ia refer
ence TO the trustees OF the Gas WOrks:-,
PHILADELPHIA, March l, 1866 John Eckstein
Esq, clerk Of Common Council.-Dear Sir:-YOur
favor of the 23d u t., InquTing as to whether the
solution Of Councils of the 10th OF March, 1866 can
be enforced, was duly received.
The resolution referred to provides that ut shall DO
the duty of the Trustees oil the City Gas Works 10
report monthly, IN DETAIL 10 the Committee on Gas
Works, all the purchases and sales (eXcepting the
sale of gas) ma0e during the previous month, and
thev shall also report a the same time the disposition
n ade OF the monthly profits of the works."
am inclined TO think that this resolution cannot
be enforced. AS originally constituted the Gas
Works were a private corporation subsequently,
ii is true he CITY exercised her rght of taking pos
session of the property by indemnitying the STOCK
holders, but the principle adoDted by the Legislature
of 1s41 was management that would be RESPONSE
b e. but not subject TO the city legislature.
The control of the works IN the hands of the
Trustees, and as their profits made from the sale of
gas are turned over to their especial Sinking
Fund, it would seem that the city Government must
be satisfied with the mode of stating their accounts
as heretofore pursued.
If, however, there should be any reason to sus-
pect a mIsmanagement of the trust in any special
case, think the city has interest which would
Justify her demand for investigation. Very re-
spectIully yours, F. CARROLL BRBwsTER,
CitV Solicitor,
