lowed to run practically al tho time.
The committee directed that they be
placed on motor service as soon as

transmission line to the New Pump
house had been completed, and that
two of the new centrifugal pumps
operated by power from the municipal
electric plant We're now in operation
at the same hours as current is being
generated for, the Broad Street lights.
AS soon as The steam portion of the
electric plant Is completed sufficient
power will be furnished for the con,
slant operation of four centrifugal
pumps, With daily capacity of $780,
600 gallons each, thus giving, to the
reservoirs an ample supply of water
to >mect any emergency.

.GE rs VERDICT
70 R EJECTMENT
Street Car Conductor at First
Accepted Her Gold Piece and
Then Refused 1t.

Verdict and Judgment for damages
in the sum of $3.50 were rendered In
the City Circuit Court yesterday in
the case of Mrs. Hester a. Shope
against tho Virginia Railway and Pow
or Company. The action was for eject
ment from n street car, and was for
damages in the sum of $1,000.
Mrs Shope testified that she had
boarded Seventeenth Street car, and
rendered m payment OF her fare a SO
gold piece, which the conductor ac-
cepted and placed in his pouch. saying
something about getting change when
the car reached q switch Later the
conductor returned and said he was
unable to make change, and that the
passenger must get off the car. and
she was elected, though not with force.
The company offered no evidence in
defense save to cite number of court
decisions in which 1t has been held
that 50 is the largest amount which 1t
is reasona BILE for passengers to expect
conductors to change, and an adYer-
tisement of the company relative to tho
beginning of operation of pay-as-you-
enter cars in which 1t WAS stated that
change to the amount of 81 only would
be furnished. The cjectment. 1t was
shown, happened before that ADVERTISE
nlent was issued, and before ''pay-as-
you-enter cars were introduced in
Richmond.
Attorneys for Mrs Snope did not
controvert the general statement that
So was an excessive amount for a
passenger to offer to a car conductor
and expect change. but contended that
the conductor. having accepted the
tender of the money offered, and given
some assurance that he would endea-
vor to make change. and then allowed
his passenger to ride some distance
toward her destination. he then had no
right to alter his mind and refuse to
make change and eject the passenger.
| The courts instructions did not pass
| on the question of what IS a reason
able tender in payment of street car
fare, but the court instructed the jury
that II it believed from the evidence
/ that the conductor had accepted the
coin offered as tender of fare and had
| allowed the passenger to proceed In
the belief that her fare was paid, he
/ had no right then to change his mind
and refuse to accept the gold piece,
and eject his passenger. The car com
pany was represented by a. B, Guigon
1 and Thomas P. Bryan. John A. Lamb
and r. r. Florence appeared for Mrs.
Shope.

sented TO the Council Committee on

munlcation that the company has GER
tain franchises for operating generaf
lighting end heating plant In South
Richmond; that it has more or less two
three and fourinch mains. in certain
streets, and an acetylene gas general
ing plant. though the plant is admit
teddy not of sufficient size 10 supply
the wants OF the southside. Tho letter
states that the company has now
reached crisis where II must either

the logical party TO whom TO sell is tho
city.
Under the terms OF the annexation
act the city of Richmond agreed to In

new free bridge to be erected on tho
site of Mayo's Bridge.
The letter of the company was re-
ferr"d to the City Attorney for report
as to the validity of the franchise held
| by 1t and as 10 whether that franchise
would In any way hinder the city from

| tens from mu iclpal gas and electric
plants. and as whether any obliga-
tlon rested on the city to buy the plant
of the Manchester Light. Heat ana
