OAKLAND, CAL, May 24.-The great
fight between the two rival water compa-
MES was fought out on the floor of the
Council chamber tonight and the result
IN light be called partial compromise.
The matter on which the battle huns
was the alienation of the fire hydrants.
At present all the hydrants west of Lake
Merritt are supplied by the Dingee Com
pany, and all those east of Lake Merritt
by the Contra Costa Company This is
about two-thirds to the new company,
and the fight was over taking away from
it half OF all the hydrants west of Lake
Merit. Every Cou ncilman spoke of the
motion and the amendment and politics
and platform were handled without
gloves. A great deal that was personal
was said and many of tho speeches were
of a very fiery order.
The resolution TO change the hydrants
was amended by Pringle SO that instead
OF referring to all the western hydrants 1t
referred only to those between the water
front and Seventeenth street, Lake Mer-
rift and Market street.
After a heated debate, in which Attor-
ney G. w. Baker took a leading part, the
amended resolutions were passed.
Rowe and Henneberry, who wanted the
original resolution passed, voted no on
the amendment, and Pringle. Earl, Girard
Upton, Brosnahan. Watklnson, Hoffman.
Cuveilier and Fibush voted in favor of it.
For the resolution as amended the vote
was the same, except that Cuvellier
changed. The expected sensation about
the bribery affidavit was not heard from.
