source of revenue to the city. Both the
gas and electric light companies are
willing to take their chances on such a
system of fees. They think that the
customer who objects will be the one
who has to put up the money in most
cases.
Strange though it may seem, E. A
Caney, the present plumbing inspector
of Topeka, has no objections to the
plan which promises to give him a
large assortment of extra work. He
said today:
Il think Mr. Green's plan is all
right, and I am willing to undertake
to do the work if am supplied with
the necessary apparatus. During the
winter months, the work of plumbing
inspection is very light, but it would
be during the winter months that
most of the work of meter inspection
would have to be done. The two
very nicely. 1 imagine that there
would be a good deal of business for
a meter inspector for a time, at least,
until people became generally satisfied
that their meters were giving correct
measurements. The proposed ordin-
ance would doubtless bring in a good
many dollars of additional revenue,
and would be a popular move, as
WE'LL
The apparatus necessary for testing
meters is not very extensive, nor is the
operation difficult. 1t takes only a
few minutes to make a test of an cleo
here is what is known as the standard
meter The gas inspector would
simply be provided with a meter of
similar pattern, of known accuracy,
which he would simply attach beside
of the house meter. He would them
allow a certain quantity of gas to pass
through both meters, and If the house
meter did not tally with the standard
meter, the thing would be settled.
The council instructed the commit
tee on gas and electric lights to get to-
gether and draw up an ordinance pro-
viding for the inspection of meters.
This may be rather a difficult thing to
do as there are many little details
which would have to be arranged. No
meeting of the committee has been
called, and none is likely to be until
after the council has settled the pend
ing waterworks matters. The COM
mittee on gas and electric lights is
composed of Geo. Neil, S. r. Kutz and
G. K. Holiday.

TOPEKA MEN DENY 1T.
Wooden Mill Proprietors Don't Want
TO Move to Kansas City.

The following story was printed in
this mornings Kansas City Journal:
There is a probability of Kansas
City acquiring a wooden mill Men in
Topeka who are interested in such a
plant are in Kansas City now looking
over the situation, and Secretary
Donohue of the Manufacturers asso-
citation, was in conference with them
yesterday, and spent a good part of
the day showing them about the city,
discussing sites and like matters. 1t
is the understanding that a consider
able plant will very likely be the out
come of the investigation. 1t is not
certain that the Topeka plant will be
abandoned, but statements made indi-
cate a possibility of it, as freight rates,
market advantages, buying public,
etc, are wholly in Kansas City's
favor
NJ. G. Holman of the Western Wool

whether his mill is the one referred
to in the Kansas City story. He said:
