a general Encouragement and IN
crease in the pay of all men en-
ployed by the Light Department. es-
pecially at the Lower Gas Works. is
proposed by the Council Committee on
Light. The matter was precipitated at
meeting of the Committee on Light
last night, when Councilman Rogers
presented a petition for an increase
from the water-gas makers. Chair
man John Grimes left the chair to
argue the matter He was not op-
posed to the petition, he explained.
In fact. he believed from his own
knowledge of the situation that they
were entitled to an increase. But the
chairman said that 1t was an unwlse
policy to take SO many bites at the
man. and may be leave a third. who
had no friend on the committee, with
out any raise, when he was equally
deserving.
Mr.. Grimes said that to his knowl-
edge there were men employed at the
Lower Gas Works who had received
no increase in pay in twenty-siX years.
while the -ay of policemen, firemen,
street cleaners and others had been
raised to meet the higher cost OF liv-
ling.
Superintendent knowles agreed that
the scale OF pay had been fixed by
ordinance in 1881, and that only in
individual instances had there beer
any changes since. AS a result of the
debate the petition of the water-ga
makers was tabled and a subcommit'
