DISTRICT TO SAVE
$4,000 ON LIGHTS
Electric Company Agrees to
Cut in Rate.

As a result of the settlement of a diff
ference between the Commissioners and
the Potomac Electric Power Company
the District will save approximately So
600. according to the annual report of
Walter c. Allen. District electrical en-
gineer, which was made public yester-
day.
About nine months ago the Commits
sioners discovered that the electric power
company for eleven years had been fur
nishing arc lamps, rated lower than 900
candle power the grade required by
law. The power company explained that
the 700 Candle-power lamps, which they
were furnishing in many cases, were
more efficient than the 1000 candle-power
lamps.
The matter was brought before Con-
gress. and the Commissioners were final
ly directed to effect a settlement. An
agreement has been reached whereby
the rate of each lamp will be reduced
from sSJ to $50 per year, from October,
1909. to March. 1911.
Mr.. Allen announced yesterday that
80 new lamp posts are being erected
around the White House and along
Massachusetts avenue, as far as the
Union Station. He said that Col Spen-
Ger Cosby. superintendent of Public
Buildings and Grounds, has ordered 240
of the lights for Potomac Park.

POLICE SEARCHING
FOR SAFE-CRACKER
Saloon in Seventh Street En-
tered by Thief.

Although Central ONCE detectives
spent the whole of yesterday and last
night running down several clews they
obtained in connection with the at
tempted blowing of the safe In the
saloon of Myer NJ. Stern, Sol Seventh
street northwest. early yesterday morn
ing, their efforts to locate the safe
cracker or establish his identity proved
futile.
1t Is the opinion Of the police that
the man is the same thief who robbed
the safe of $175 last June. That he
did not succeed in gaining entrance to
the safe is probably due to the fact
that he was frightened away while
boring a hole in the door. With this
hole filled with nitro-glycerine, the
heavy door of the safe could easily
have been torn from its hinges and
the safe robbed of its contents.
When Stern opened his place Of busi-
ness yesterday morning he discovered
that the saloon had been entered
through a rear door. Examination dis
closed that the robber had managed TO
cut the knob off the safe door. The
knob was lying on the floor.
