COMPANY
TO TRY NEW PLAN
Nav Present New Financing
Scheme in Lieu of One
Rejected.

A new scheme for financing its oper-
atoms for the next fifty years. in lieu
OF the -mllion-dollar bond issue pro-
posal to which the public utilities COM
mission refused to give its approval, may
be presented to the commission by the
Washington Utilities Company within the
next two three weeks.
Following the refusal last week or
the utilities board to grant the company
request for rehearing on the merits
of the bond-issue plan, but two methods
OF procedure are now open to the cor
poration, according to officials of that
concern. One is to appeal the commits
sion's decision in the courts, while the
other is to present an entirely new
financing plan, which with not t&Ee INTO
account certain stock owned ~ the
company which the public service board
decided it has no right to under the La
toilette anti-merger law.
In view of the delay usually attendant
upon legal proceedings, it is more than
likely that the latter course Will De
followed, according to Information Ob-
tanned through authoritative sources.
No Deision by Company.
Gardiner l.. Boothe. secretary of the
Washington Utilities Company, last
night stated that he had informed the
other officials of the corporation of the
commissions refusal to grant rehear-
Ing, but, as yet, no decision has been
reached as to what will be the COM
pany's next move.
Although Col. Chester Harding, CHAIR
man Of the public utilities commission
Will be absent from the city for q month.
there Is to be no let-up in the work OF
the commission, it was stated yeStef-
day. During Col. Harding's absence
Commissioner Sddons will act as chair
man. The public service board, IT Is
learned. probably will render an early
decision as to whether it has 1urlsdlc-
ton over local taxicab companies. III
the event it decides these companies are
common carriers and come under It's
jurisdiction, the commission, IT IS an
nounced, Will look into the question Oh
