READY FOR
SIGNATURE
Document on Mayors Desk and
Likely Be Signed Today New
Deal Makes Substantial
Saving for City


Up to noon today the contract made
between the city and the Worthington
Pump company remained unsigned, but
according to Mayor Burton there
would probably be no hitch in the pro
ceedings and it was understood that
the mayors signature would be affixed
this afternoon. The slight delay has
been caused by certain minor changes
in the contract. making it necessary
that il be rewritten. Il have been SO
busy this morning that ! have not had
the opportunity of looking over the re-
written contract, but win get to it as
soon as possible" said Mayor Burton.
Some figures regarding the compara-
tive cost of installing the electric and
steam plants. give the electric plant
several thousand dollars the better OF
the argument. The steam pumps pur
chased were priced at $4,000 T. O. b.
Chickasha. Other estimated costs
we're, addition to building necessary,
together with foundation for the
pumps, S1,5O0. The boilers now in op-
Grafton at the plant have been in ser
vice nine YEARS and it was deemed
imperative that they be replaced with
in a year at an estimated cost Of $4,000,
bringing the actual cost Of the per
fected steam plant up to SIS, 500 The
total cost of the electric plant is esti-
mated at sll.250. a difference of $4250
in favor Of the electric driven plant
By the contract for the purchase OF
the steam pumps, the city was to throw
in both Of the steam pumps now in
use at the power plant and pay the
freight on them to Cincinnati or Chi
cago. The contract for the purchase
Of the electric pumps calls for the re
turn of one of the old steam pumps
and the freight to Chicago to be paid
by the city. That item is then bal
anced.
The cost of operating the electri,
plant as against the cost of operating
the steam plant has been set forth
and though the operating cost Of th'
electric plant has only been estimated
the estimates are said to be conserva
tive, and show a big saving over tbs
present plant.

Washington, Nov 13.-The senate
committee again today considered the
currency bill, with the hope of pass
ing it at this session unabandoned
even by the president but with pros
poets of the measure reaching the sen
ate early next week.
Administration Democratic members
Of the committee asked that definite
action on the bill be postponed till
tomorrow when it is hoped to offer
a substitute bill varying slightly from
the Glass measure.
The administration hoped to get
some Republican votes for a report to
the senate and if not, the committee
will report disagreement, transferring
the fight into the senate.
There is strong demand on both
sides for a two weeks adjournment as
soon as the bill is reported. This
would enable congressman to obtain
mileage perquisites. 1t is said that the
president approves the plan.
The attempt to force the measure
through a Democratic caucus yester-
day was abandoned.
