LIGHTING THE COURT HOUSE.
Mr. MarkRkm Say. Present Contrac
Continues Till Dec. 81.

Mr. Marl<Rk m Says Present Contract
Continues Till Dec. 81.
The joint court house and city hall
commission held it's regular monthly
meeting last evening. The principal
matter discussed was the heating and
lighting Of the court house and jail
after the expiration Of the existing
contract with the st. Paul Gas Light
company. This contract was entered
into In 1894, and was to begin In June.
and continue for three years. AS g.
matter OF fact, the time Of beginning
was extended nntil Dec. 81, 1894, and
some question has lately arisen as to
whether the contract would expire in
June next or Hot until Dec. 81, 1897.
An opinion was received from Corpor-
alton Attorney Markham last night
stating that the contract with the
gas company does not terminate until
Dec. 81, 1897.
J. T. Duffy & Co. submitted a prop
heat and light the court house and Jail
and supply janitor service for $4,000
year for the first three years, and to
do the same for the following six years
at $500 less a year with each succeed
ing year: at the end of nine years the
plant to be turned over to the city free
Of charge. Mr.. Duffy declares that UNI
county would save from $4,000 to $40, 600
year. The proposition was referred
to the committee on grounds and build
1ngs.
James McGeary reported that it
would cost $4,000 to put an electric
light plant into the court house, and
that it would cost $419 year to light
the court house and Jail and $275 a
year to heat the same.
Commissioner DAILY submitted some
figures relative to the cost Of heating
and lighting the court house. Accord
ing to Mr.. Days figures, the cost OF
operating and maintaining the steam
plant and lighting the court house and
Jail from July 1, 1892, to July 1. 1893.
was s22,472,2O, whereas under the pres
ent contract with the gas light COM
pany the cost during the past year
was only s14,7O0.
The committee on grounds and
buildings was instructed to look after
the request Of. the municipal court
judges for the use of one of the rooms
or the upper floors as a civil court
room. 81
The resolution referred to the joint
commission by. the assembly relative
to furnishing. the city offices in the
building with towels was referred to
the committee on supplies.
