INSPECTORS
LOOK AT METERS.
GAS INSPECTOR ISSUES WARNING
TO THE PUBLIC.
Meter Testers Are Reaping a Harvest
by q Complicated Looking Device
Which Wisely Never Finds an Error
The Inspector Also Gives Tips on
Tips.

Fake gas inspectors are operating in
Minneapolis at present, and household
ers aer warned that anyone offering to
test the gas meter officially is a hum
bug. w. 81. Roberts, the city gas in
spector, is the only person having any
authority to test meters, and he is much
too busy to go about soliciting work.
II anyone wants a meter officially
tested, application must be made to Mr..
bring the meter to the city hall, where
a reliable testing device is maintained.
4 Mr.. Roberts says that it has been
brought to his attention that two al
legged inspectors are canvassing. The
charge $l.5O, but can be beaten down
to 81. They have somewhat compi-
Gated device and when they secure a
job, Immediately detach the meter, do
something-and pronounce the meter
all right. If. they reported anything
wrong there would, of course, be a kick
to the gas company or to3Mr. Roberts,
and the game would then be; disclosed.
is admitted to be highly improbable
that all meters would be correct all the
time.s 81
The men have some knowledge Of gas
fitting, but when they replace the me-
ters they frequently do q botch job,
either thru carelessness OF inexperience.
There is thus danger Of serious leak
and Mr.. Roberts urges all who have had
their meters inspected recently to have
the joints carefully examined.
Warning is also given against GER
tain variety Of aluminium tips'' which
carvassers are introducing. Some Of
these burn as high as thirteen cubic feet
in an hour or twice as much as a good
burner should. They are great consum-
.ers of gas and give no better light than
i the standard tips. ai
Mr.. Roberts attention was recently
! called to house in Southeast Mime
sapolis, where the tenant tried to make a
connection in the space occupied by
the meter, hwich was removed when the
previous tenant vacated the premises.
The man who did the work was no gas
filter, and made joints without any
threads in the couplings. The joints
were tied up with thread q nd string
and were as loose as two links in a
chain. That the household was not
asphyxiated or blown up was a wonder
for the gas was escaping at a great
rate when an assistant inspector was
called to the place by neighbors.
