WATER RATES
WILL INCREASE
New Castle Citizens Are Agi.
tated Over Trouble
some Question
specIal 70 the rvenlng journal.


New Castle, Dec. 3.-People Of this|
place are greatly agitated over the|
question of a water supply for the cityI
in case Of a fire. The appropriation OIL
the trustees of the New Castle Com
mons has ceased to become a feature
for the New Castle Water Works Com
pany.
The appropriation for the past thirty
years has been $4,000 per year, and two
years ago this was reduced to one-half
of the amount, with the stipulation
that the appropriation should cease in
1900.
This leaves at the present time about
fifty fire plugs to be provided for in
case of fires in this city. The Water
Works Company will demand a rental
Of $24 per year per plug, which will
mean S1,24S. and for which there is
at the present time no provision. The
City Council has at the present time
more bills than it can meet
The people of the city claim that the
taxes are higher now than they can
meet. and in many cases it is known
that this is true. There are at the pres
ent time about $50 idle houses in this
city. and many occupied. from which
the owner is receiving little or no rent.
In order to keep an insurance on the
properties at a nominal figure the peo-
pie Of this city must provide a service
else the insurance companies must re-
move their risks or raise the rate to
such an extent that shall warrant their
doing business on a safe business plan
Thus it will be necessary to increase
the taxation to provide a safety in case
OF fire. All property holders must pay
share Notwithstanding the claim Of
inability to pay.
