PUBLIC SERVICE
SCORES.
It Secures an Injunction Re-
straining the Baltimore
Co. From Installing
New Burners.
ITS METER MIST BE USED OR NO Gas
Ninety-eight Lamps Are Thus
Put Out of Commission
and Lafayette Is Dark

As the result of an injunction obtained
by the Public Service Corporation from
Vice Chancellor Pitney yesterday after
noon ferbidding the American Lighting
Company from changing any more of its
burners on the city's gas lampposts and
requiring the Baltimore concern to alb
stain from using Public Service gas until
each lamp is equipped with the same
kind of metre used by the Public Service
Corporation the city is placed temper
arily at least, SO far as gas street light
ing is concerned" !" between the devil and
the deep sea-"
The injunction obtained by the Public
Service Corporation is an Offset to that
obtained by the American Lighting Com
pany for U. S. Justice Bradford in Will
mington, Del, last Saturday, restra Inning
the Public Service Corporation from re-
fusing to sell gas to the Baltimore con-
Germ.
Ninety-eight gas lamps are thus put
out of commission and nearly all of the
Lafayette section was left in darkness,
Notwithstanding the police were told by
one of the officials of the Public Service
Corporation that in the interest of the
people gas would ,last night be furnished
the street gas lamps. There appeared
to be some hitch after the promise was
made. Chief of Police Murphy was
by the Public Service Cooperation and
the police were instructed if called upon
to prevent the replacing of more burners
by the American Lighting Company, but
were also instructed to see that the lamps
were lighted and kept so.
The officials of the American Lighting
Company said they would not disobey the
injunction secured by the Public Service
Corporation yesterday. This in junction
was accompanied by a rule to show
cause in the chancery chambers in this
city next Monday. 1t was understood
that the fight was to be declared off un-
til that time.
There was some talk Of a conference of
city officials to discuss the matter, but
none had been held up to noon.
