THE LIGHTING BILLS.
Electric Light Company Sent Col
Iector for First Time in Months.

For the first time in MANY months
the collector of the Richmond Light
and Power Company appeared in Tot
tenville yesterday to collect the money
due for lights used by the local lner-
chants.
Ever since the company has supplied
Staten Island with electric light they
nave charged fifteen cents a kilowatt'
but at q session of the Legislature last
May a law was passed making it M
lawful to charge more than ten cents
q kilowatt. The electric light com
pany c~outended that this law held
good only in the borough Of Manhat-
tan. and not in this borough, so they
took the matter TO court. In the mean
time they refused to make any collec-
tions. The other day the court de-
cided that all b%oroughs were entitled
to the ten zen rate.
Whensthe collector came to Totten-
Vile yesterday q number OF the mer-
chants were not in the best of humor
for bills were high, rs they had been
running for some months and the col
lecvor did not have a nice job of 1t.
He will be around every month now,
