 The resolution was offered by Alder man Griffin, leader upon the Demo- cratic eide. It is said to have the sup port of all of the interests that have been fighting the legislation which the lighting company sought to have adopted by the General Assembly.
 The resolution is based upon facts that appeared at the hearing before the Judiciary committee in Hartford, at which it was said that the cost of producing electricity has decreased since the contract between the lighting com pany and Bridgeport was made. but that the company has not reduced the price, in accordance with the terms of the contract. at which it sells light to the city.

 And Whereas, Section 12 of said contract reads as, follows: Tt is here by agreed that if the cost of produc- tion of electricity for the operation of lamps as specified herein be cheapened during the continuance of this con- tract, that said company will reduce to said city, the price of said lamps in a sum equal to the reduced price of production as aforesaid;
