TO BE In FULL CONTROL
By I. A. FLEMING.

Peter Young. one Of the worlds lead
ing coal gas engineers and managers,
has been elected general manager of the
Washington Gas Light Company. and
will assume his duties on the first day
of July.
The success that has attended the Sc
lection Of Clarence P. King, a practical
street railroad man, as the active head
of the Washington Railway and Electric
Company Is said to have been a factor
In inducing the Washington Gas Com
pany to quit experimenting and put their
great property into the hands OF the very
best management obtainable.
Mr.. Young comes from the Consolidated
Gas Company OF New York City. He
will have full and untrammelled control.
as he would not come unless given free
rein.
II Is the intention of the WASHINGTON
Gas Company to make more coal gas,
perhaps in time to eliminate water gas
from its service. The advancing trend
in oil values and the more satisfactory
quality Of coal gas have led to this con-
clusion.

An official OF the company. in making
this statement, added: And I think that
the appraisement has been fair and
equitable. Our officials kept their hands
of in the matter. We included servics
pipes because the court gave US author

The Herald stated the case clearly.
We do not expect to ask for dividends
on the valuation basis. We could not
earn them. We do not intend to make
an effort to obtain higher prices for gas
because we know that that would be use
less. Moreover, II the advent OF a prac-

DECLINES 1T WHEN OFFERED

New York, September 12.-What is
to become of the Gaynor League was
still the question of greatest interest
to-day among politicians interested in
the campaign for the mayoralty.
To-day the place at the head OF the
Gaynor ticket was first offered to
George McAneny, Fusion candidate for
president Of the Board OF Aldermen.
Nominate Him Anyhow.
He promptly declined it, but when
William r. Wilcox, former chairman
of the Public Service Commission, also
declined. Joseph johnson, chairman of
the Gaynor campaign committee, an
nounced that McAneny would he nomi-
mated despite his declnation.
'McAneny says no will not run
against Mitchell" said johnson. We'll.
by the time we are ready To file petit
tions Mitchell will have seen that he
cannot be elected and will withdraw
from the race. McAneny will then be
free to take our nomination"
Mitchell Will Stick.

for the Fusionists. snid: There is not
'he ghost of n possibility of Mr.. Mitchell
withdrawing. Mitchel's prospects are
brighter than ever. johnson is trying
to keep the Gaynor movement alive
for the sole purpose of helping Tam
many and Mccall"
1t is understood that many of the
Gaynor men will throw their support
io Mitchell.
Tammany leaders refused TO COM
ment on the situation to-day.
