CITY OWNERSHIP MENACE
Phiiadelphians Disturbed by Measure
Now Before Legislatures

Philadelphia, April Presidents of
this city are much disturbed over the pos
sibility of legislative action that may put
an end to municipal ownership Of their
water plant In this project many mil
lions are involved, and it is the subject
of more jealous interest since the recent
traction franchise Of the city by the coun-
ellis
The cause Of the. Philadelphians' anxiety
is the fact that bill is being rushed
through the legislature at Harrisburg
which provides that any city or town
= the state may sell or lease its water,
gas or electric properties. The bill has
caused scare here because of circum-
stances that indicate that the measure
is intended to pave the way for the sale
or lease of the Philadelphia waterworks
to a syndicate.
The bill was introduced 'by request"
and Representative Snyder, who was its
sponsor declares he knows nothing about
it. He refuses to tell who was its author
or who gave it to him.
The city is now installing a filtration
system to cost between SIS, 1000 and $780,
100000, and this would go with the water
works plant should the latter be sold or
leased. Public sentiment on the subject
Is SO strong that every newspaper In the
city, irrespective of party, has denounced
the bill. The uneasiness Is heightened by
the fact that the measure makes no pro-
vision for vote of the people on propo-
sttion to sell property owned by the mu-
nicipaltty.

Emperor William ConaratuIates a SUBJ
ject on an American Contract
He Failed to Land.

Berlin, April a. While Emperor
William was riding through Unter den
Linden two or three days ago, says a.
weekly paper, he noticed Director
Rathenau, Of a German electrical COM
oany, and, beckoning Herr Rathenau
20 his side, the emperor said it pleased
aim to see his company had obtained
from the United States government
contract to erect wireless telegraph
stations in Alaska. He added that he
considered this an important success
tor German industry, and he hoped to
hear of more such successes.
Washington, April General Gree
ey, chief signal officer, says that he
1as made two contracts for wireless
telegraph in Alaska, one with the Mar
,oni and the other with the Fessenden
system. Neither has been able to per-
form the contracts, which expired last
August. He has made no contract with
any German individual or company.
An offer was made from some German
company to supply General Greeley in
struments for wireless telegraph, but
he wanted to install a system, and not
instruments. Thus far he has been
unable to secure contract for such
system.
The signal corps has been making
experiments with a view to perfecting
system Of wireless telegraphy which
may be utilized in Alaska, instead of
| the long reaches of wire which are now
necessary.
