What will the city council do with
The gas franchise tonight? VIII the
Northwestern Gas & Electric company
be granted the favor which it has ask
ed, and thus allowed to acquire COM
plete gas and electric monopoly in this
.city7
There have been indications today
that strenuous efforts were being
made to have the franchise voted to-
night, but that such will be done
seems doubtful. For the past three
weeks the ordinance committee. COM
posed of j. NJ. Ferguson, Il. ]. Muir
ply and Tom Swearingen, has refus-
ed to report the ordinance back to
the council for consideration, and it
looks as though they would again take
the same stand tonight.
When seen this morning Council
man Murphy said that II would be
impossible for him to attend the meet
ing tonight owing to a wedding at
which he is to be present. AS to the
merits of the franchise proposition
he said that he had not fully made up
his mind yet. One of the things
which, according to him. has been
giving considerable trouble Is the pos
sible location of the gas plant.
AT noon today Councilman Swearin-
gen said that he did not think any
report on the franchise would be made
at all tonight However he did not
know what action might he taken by
the council should the committee re-
fuse to report the ordinance.

To pass the ordinance five votes are
necessary, according to Judge FitZ
Gerald. as the charter specifies that
a majority of the council must vote
for such a measure, ana IL IL held IN
this connection that the full strength
Of the council is meant AT present

ceedingly doubtful OF It's passage AT

Considerable interest has been
aroused among local business men re-
garding the giving of franchise to
the NORTHWESTERN Gas Eiectrlc
company. The sentiment among this
class is almost unanimous that II
would be better for the city to have
the gas plant owned by local, or at
least by another company, 80 as to
provide some competition. Should the
franchise be voted there would be lit
tie possibility OF an independent COM
pany within the next 20 years, al

$22, 100000. the balance due on the in.
demnity for losses during the Boxer
uprising. The United States, 1t Is said
never intended to accept 30 large an
indemnity.
At the end of the Boxer rebellion this
country was anxious that the European
nations should exact only moderate
sums. which would not tax China be.

want to see China weakened by taxa.
ton and left unable to develop her owr
national strength and resources. She
was anxious, too, that China should
not be obliged to pay her debts In ter.
ritory.
In order to carry out this policy she
had set herself, the United States fixed
her own claims at the exorbitant fig
ure of $25,OOO,00O. She then proposed
to the European powers that they
should all accept q reduction Of theii
claims, the amount due the United
States to be reduced at the same rate
This proposal the powers refused tc
listen to. Consequently the United
States had to support her demand OF
$25 ,OO0, OOQ-which 1t is said was $22,.
100000 more than the actual cost Of
transporting and maintaining troops,
plus the damages to merchants and
missionaries.
President Roosevelt has discussed
I the proposition Of canceling the claim
with the Chinese minister at Wash

that Manhattan Brooklyn together

will hardly be so much that the total
will fall materially below 4.000, 900.
