prices dropped with heavy thud when
bids We're opened for new municipal
contract yesterday. The Iowa City
Electric Light company put in a bid

enclosed arcs at s72 each.
Franklin Benjamin, the promoter
who has kept things warm in lighting
circles for the past two months, did
not put in a bid. His efforts to secure

Carsons.
1t is likely that the magnetic system
will be installed, as it finds favor with
