Santh FEES New Extension.

Houston, March 9.-Since the Santa
Fe has purchased the Texas, Louisiana
and Eastern there is all kinds of
rumOrS as to the several connections
to be made. The distance will be
short, from where it is proposed to
connect with the Gulf, Beaumont and
Kansas City, to Beaumont.
But this is not the only advantage
to be gained. 1t comes from good
authority that the Gulf, Beaumont
and Kansas City is soon to be ex-
tended north, passing through some
of the finest pine lands in the world.
This company has recently purchased
fOrty'lve miles of new rails, which
will carry the line far up in Jasper
county. A gentleman who has Just
returned from ColmSeneil says that it
is understood that at no distant day
a connection will be made with the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas. This
will give the Gulf, Beaumont and
Kansas City another outlet, and with
mills established along the line, a
heavy business in lumber will be
opened from this section,

Ford to supplaDt the gas lights with
better lights at a reduction Of the
present expenses of lighting the
city. The city can get cheaper light
service than they are now securing by
accepting l6-candle power lights
throughout the city, but whether
that power light would be much Of
an improvement over the gas lights,
is question. The city would also
have less lights on the side streets.
Whether proposition can be Sc
cured from Mr.. Ford for better SER
vice at the same cost, remains to be
seen. Some Of the councilmen are
holding out for better lighting at a
reduction in the expenses.
The company is figuring on entering
into active competition with the gas
company in supplying private lights.
They expect to put in a system for
residence lighting as well as Service
for business houses. The electric
light company has the advantage of
the gas company in the council, in
that the cOuncilmen practically have
their minds made up to get electric
lights on the streets if anything like
favorable proposition is offered.
The electric light company, therefore,
is practically without competition
and they are only figuring on getting
in under the present cost of lighting
the city by gas, about g, 100. The
rate that they are figuring on receiv-
ing from the city for street lighting
exceeds the rate they will ask of con-
Sumers by about 80 cents per light.
Mr.. Ford claims that this will hardly
pay for the additional cost Of main
tanning the street lights.
The committee, with Mr.. Ford, is
busy at the council rooms this after
noon figuring on the proposition to be
made to the city council tonight. Mr..
Ford is also revising the figures for
private lighting, and nothing accur-
ate will be learned of the prices that
will be charged for private customers
until late this afternoon. These
figures will also be made known at
the council meeting tonight. Mr.
Ford is carefully using the knife on
private light rates, and if the plant
is put in the gas company will find
the new corporation crOwding them
closely in the business and dwelling
houses, as well as having possession of
the field for street lighting.

The Electric Light Question.

Daily journal, Wednesday.
The proposition of Mr.. George H.
Hunter to furnish power for an cleo
trio plant at minimum cost, has
seemingly been successful in securing
favorable proposition from Mr..
Owen Ford of st. Louis, to put in an
incandescent and arc light system for
the city, Mr.. Ford was present at
the council meeting last night and
explained the system and gave an
estimate of the cost of lighting the
city. The matter was finally referred
TO committee consisting of Council.
men Graf, DeYOe and French, who
will confer with Mr.. Ford today, and
it is expected to have formal prop
0sitiOn from him before the council
tonight.
Mr.. Ford had two or three PROPOSE
tions before the council last night.
One was to supply Washington ave-
niue with six arc lights, put eighteen
5O-candle power, eighteen 32,candle
power and twenty-five Is candle
power incandescent lights throughout
the city for about $500, or to put in
seventy 5O-candle power iDcandescents
and six arc lights, allowing the
railway companies in both instanc.
es to supply four more arc lights
at their crossings, making a total of
ten arc lights to be put in, at a
cost to the city of about the same
money.
These propositions were discussed
quite at length. 1t is probable that
if franchise is granted to the cleo
trio light company contract will be
made with them, knocking out the
gas company entirely. An ordinance
provides that no money is TO be paid
to the gas company for gas lamps
that are within 300 feet of any other
street light. The lOl gas posts in the
city can be knocked out" by about
Sixty-fve iucandescent lights.
No proposition was made by Mr..
