SAUSALITO'S NEW LIGHT
The Recommendations of Street
Superintendent McCul-
Tough.
A Street Contractor Ordered to Re.
turn and Do His Work Over.
Fire-Hose Bids.

At meeting of the Town Trustees of
Sausalito last night the subject of an elec-
trio plant for street-hghting came up.
The Street Superintendent submitted re-
port, in which he made the following rec
concentrations:
The company should be permitted 10 charge
whatever il pleases until 500 lights are i'll ope-
ration each night.
The first January after 500 lights are in ope-
ration and every January thereafter the Board
OF Trustees are TO fix the rates upon the fol-
lowing basis:
The company to charge enough that per
cent interest on the investment and all operat-
ing expenses and 10 per cent of said operating
expenses added TO the foregoing shall be made
and no more
The company to furnish the town OF sausa-
Tito all the arc and lncandescent lights 1t may
require at rates fifteen per cent less than the
rates charged regular customers.
Ten years after the company has commenced
operations, and every five years thereafter, the
town OF Sausalto is to have the privilege of
purchasing the works az q valuation TO be based
on the cost OF duplicating the plant at that
time or upon an equitable valuation TO be then
determined.
During the life of the franchise, or during
the term OF operation, the company shall turn
into the town treasury per cent of the gross
receipts This per cent shall not be counted in
portion of the operating expenses.
The preceding are the principal conditions.
but the company might be required, on pain of
within thirty days from the date OF the fran
chise, to have all wires strung at the end of
sixty days and TO begin furnishing lights st the
end of ninety days.
The life of the franchise should be fifty years
Mccullough stated that John NJ Cline,
who proposed to put up the plant, had
said that if the town OF Sausalito was going
10 charge $100 for the franchise he would
withdraw his proposition. DR.. Case, who
was present, declared that the statement
of Mccullough was untrue. The doctor
also stated tnat 500 lights would be pro-
vided at cost to the town of 2 cents an
hour apiece.
After some discussion the matter went
over till next meeting.
In the matter of ;he Caledonia-street
protest it was decided that the work should
go on until the street was graded.
The condition OF Water street came up
for consideration. O'Connor, the con-
tractor, whose work was so unsatisfactory
to the property owners, had agreed to do
the work over for 23z cents per square yard.
This was even more unsatisfactory to the
owners, who insist that he shall do it free
OF charge.
Bids were opened for the purchase OF $50
feet of firehose at from $50 to 500. They
will be acted upon at next meeting
Z. Morgan, keeper of the Lime Point
reservation, will be examined to-day by
Judge Pryor on charge of disturbing the
peace. He came into town on Thursday
night with a shotgun. and made himself
so conspicuous that he was arrested by
Town Marshal Creed.
