PRICE SAID TO BIZ $4,000

After repeated attempts the Whining
Dn Light, Heat and Power Company
has finally induced the Wilmington
CITY Electric Company to purchase the
franchise which the stockholders were
so anxious to dispose OF a number OF
months ago.
1t is understood that the consideration
was $4,000, or a decl ease of $50, 900 I'M
der the first price requested. The two
companies will be merged and Yam Yam
system of lighting and heating houses In
this city be introduced.
In 1895 the State Legislature granted
charter to the Wilmington Light, Heat
and Power Company, and the incorpor-
ators, Willard Salisbury, Esq, and
Preston lea, let it lag in innocuous des-
aetude until the beginning OF the pres
ent year.
The charter was then resurrected and
she first offer made to sell it with rights,
etc, to the Wilmington City Electric
Light Company. 1t is alleged that the
price then asked was $35, 600.
l he officials of the Electric Company
laughed at the generous proffer and
another one of $50, 900, it is stated, fol-
lowed. This also was refused.
1t was then decided that Mr.. Sauls-
bury and Mr. Lea would run their own
plant and with this object i'll view an
office was secured at No. NO2 Market
street, where the office boy could always
be found, and Mr.. Lea was elected presi-
dent and James W. Ponder, secretary
and treasurer.
The next step taken by the officials Of
she resurrected company was to secure
subscribers for stock but it is ALLEGED
shis met with failure.
Salisbury & Co. then prayed permits
mission of the Street and Sewer Depart
Ment to tear up certain streets for the
purpose of laying pipes, etc. The mat
ter was referred to some future meeting
This was two months ago, and as TIN
Street and Sewer Department justly con
slnued to defer the permission prayed
Tor it is said the stockholders, in othe
words Salisbury & Co., became dis
gusted, their golden dreams faded, an'
the result, it is alleged, was that the.
decided to dispose of the resurrecte'
charter.
The final proposition was then mad
