John j. Key agt FrelInghuysan, Secretary of
state, was taken up, Hon. John Goode, OF VIZ
g1nia, and Mr. F. P. Stanton for the relator, and
solicitor General Phillips for the Secretary. This
is an application for rule to show cause why a
writ OF mandamus should not issue to compel the
secretary to pay to the relator his proportion or
certain moneys received from Mexico under an
award made him by the United States and Next
can mixed commission, and the relatOr takes the
ground that 1t is not the province of the Secretary
to do anything else than to carry out the law and
pay him the money!

YANCIE0

The following is from
the interview OF q Post
reporter with Mr.. Malo-
ney, the representative OF
the United States Gas
and Fuel company, now
asking for q charter In
this city:
" What do you charge
In other places in which
you are intereSted?"
4" Well, take Atlantic
City, for instance. Two
years ago the price was
$500 per thousand. We
purchased the works, and
are now charging the
city for an average twen-
ty-two candle power gas
$3.50 per thousand feet.
The amount of our out
put there Is but ten mil
lions per year; not one
tenth OF what we ought
to furnish here in WASH
ington. In Paterson,
New Jersey, where I am
interested, we erected
opposition works, and
speedily brought the
price down from $3.50 TO
$3.50 per thousand. We
have now purchased the
other works, and propose
operating both; but snail
make no tncrea e d
charge. In Rochester,
N. Y, we are furnishing
gas to-day for one dollar
and twenty-five cents per
thousand feet, the cost of
manufacture being less
there than in the other
two places I named. Our
works in Rochester are
only eighteen months
old. Numerous attempts|
were made by the old
companies to purchase
our interests, but We have
not In any case attempt
ed opposition for the OBJ
Ject OF being bought out
or settled with. We es-
tablish gas works be-
cause we want to make
and sell gas, and are not
dealing in charters or
making wanton assaults
upon old corporations for|
the mere purpose OF wor
ry1ng them or causinx]
them additional ex-|
penSe."
