WATER RATES
Bills oi Small Consumers VIII
 Not Be as High as Formerly.

After scrap that has been on for over twenty years over water rates, the schedule was finally changed last night to take effect on and after May l. The proposed revision of rates was forwarded to the aldermen sey- efal weeks ago by the board of pub. iic works and remained on the table until last night when it was taken up on motion of Mir Nell. The new rates are as follows:
 Where the average daily use is less than JOO gallons, the rate to be , cents per one hundred gallons; for any quantity in excess of 800 gallons and not more than 2,OOO gallons, one ana one-half cent hundred gallons: Tor any quantity, In excess of 2OOO gallons, one cent for one hundred gal Ions. Alderman Goss and Alderman Fftzsimons showed some disinclina- ton to revision of the rates, but Mir Nell and Mir Walker, who had some over the whole matter on the board or public works. defended the pro- posed change. the former stating that It costs seven-eighths of a cent to pro dnce the article and that selling it Tor half cent to large consumers. while small ones are paying 3 cents for the same quantity was au intus- tice that should not be tolerated any longer. and the latter assuring Mir Goss that the day is not far off when the city will want every drop of wa ter 1t can produce for domestic pur- poses. B. W. Mooring was heard in favor of a fiat rate of about cent and two-thirds to all consumers. large and small. He contended that it is manifestly unfair for the city to charge man who takes bath twice as much for the water he uses as it charges n brewery, for example. The rate as quoted were finally adopted. This is substantially raise of half cent per one hundred gallons on the large consumers and d drop of cent on the small one. It Is regarded as short step in the right direction. The city was very slow in making change. but now that the ice is bro ken it is likely that there will soon be flat rate and if so the water ques- ton will not worry the public for many years. The large consumers. as Mir Goss said last night. will not continue to use city water for manu- featuring purposes, and with the SUD- ply drawn upon for domestic use on ly. the present reservoirs would be ample for the next half century.
 \ communication was received from D. F. Fitzpatrick. chairman of the charity bazaar committee. extend Ing an invitation to the board to par ticipate in the civic parade to be held on the evening of April 13. the opening night of the entertainment On mo- tion of Mir Spain the communication was unanimously accepted.

FILED REPORT
Mrs Williams Stock fin ihe
 Apothecaries Hall Co.

Mrs Ella s. Williams filed with the probate court to-day an application concerning the value of the 4O0 shares Of stock of the Apothecaries Hall company, about which there has been considerable contention between A. p. Rice. as executor on the estate of ms rather, Y B. Rice and I. r. KeI. logg, president and treasurer H the company.
 This block of 400 shares was left by A. E. Rice, deceased, to his wid. ow, Mrs Sarah 1T. Rice, and at her death It was to be divided among his children, \. E. Rice. Mrs Mary Mun- son and Mrs Ella Williams. who is the wife of Samuel r. Williams. in equal portions With the stock al. ready in his possession, and that DOT ton of the 4O9 shares which would go to his wifes mother. Mrs Munson, would give control of the major inter- ests in the concern. and it is the pur- pose of Mrs Williams petition to avert such happening by having this block of stock sold in bulk instead of having 1t divided among the heirs. . In her petition Mrs Williams says that Tt is necessary to sell this block of stock in order to settle the estate, and that the value of the stock as d whole is $100,00O and if the same is divided or any part of 1t sold so that the block becomes less than major ity of the entire capital stock of the said corporation of the Apothecaries Hall company, the value of said 400 shares will be much less than $30,- O0O."
 Continuing. Mrs Williams alleges in her petition: If the stock is sold in any way less than a whole, and if d. vided under the will it will be an enormous depreciation and the estate will suffer great and irreparable loss and damage Concluding Mrs Will Hams asks the court to order a sale of the 409 shares in block. There will be a hearing on the petition next Monday morning
