The Ever-Incrcasing Gas Bill.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1 was much interested in correspondent s
tabular statement of gas consumed from
1890 to 1885, I, too, can show an aggre-
gate yearly increase of gas bills, and for
a longer period, as have lived in my house
twenty years. The gas fixtures have been
the same, but the yearly aggregate cost
has steadily increased. Years ago, when
gas was s1.5O a thousand, the bills were
less than they are. now at 81 a thousand.
In all this time the largest gas bill have
ever received was for this last January.
