THE GAS SYSTEM.
Representative OF Philadelphia Con-
struction Company in the City TO
Make Estimate on the Cost
Of the System.

From the Daily Item October 6.
,1r. c. Z. Lent, the southern repre-
sentative Of the Consolidated Railway
and Light Company. of Philadelphia,
snend last night and today in the city
making an inspection and investiga-
ton for the purpose OF making an es-
innate on the cost OF installing mod
ern gas system adequate to the pres,
ent and future needs Of this city. Mr.
Lent visited the city at the invitation
Of DR.. y. G.. Osteen, Jr., and asso-
ciates. to whom a franchise for gas
system was recently granted, by the
city council, and it is expected that a
deal will be made with his company
for the construction of the lpant.
The company that Mr.. Lent repre-
sents are engineers and contractors
for gas, electric light and electric rail-
way systems and are now construct
ing a number of plants in the South,
as well as IN the NOTlH.
Mr.. Lent has recently visited forty
towns and cities in the South to OBJ
tain data for estimates on the cost OF
installing gas plants, and he stated to-
day, after going over the city, that
the conditions in Sumter were as IA
vorable for the success Of a gas sys-
tenn as in any place he had visited.
The negotiations for the construc-
ton Of the plant are, as yet, in ten
tative stage, but it can be stated with
reasonable: degree Of confidence that
Sumter will have modern up-to-date
gas system in operation within 1S
months.
In addition to the Philadelphia
company, estimates on the proposed
gas plant have been submitted by two
other construction companies, and
the men who are desirous Of establish
ing the gas system here are confident
that their efforts will be successful,
as they have become convinced by per-
sonal investigation that there is moth
ing more needed here than gas sys-
TEN. They have, after a careful in
spection Of the field, become con-
vinced that gas system will be a
profitable investment.
