LIGHTING FRANCHISE
RATIFIED BY COUNCIL
Special Meeting Today Following
Conference of Officials.
ANNOUNCE MERGER SATURDAY
Utilities Company to Take Over Old
Concern, and VIII Give Reduced
Rates As Proposed

Better light and reduced rates are
! now assured TO the municipality AMI
residents of the town generally.
The Committee on Bylaws and
| Ordinances Of the City Council held a
meeting at the Council Chamber this
morning, at which they conferred with
Mr. George 7. Bishop. and others,
concerning the franchises sought by
the Annapolis Public Ttihties Com
pany for furnishing light tor the city
and also for private consumers.
The committee of the City Council
and the representatives of the COM
pany went carefully over the ordi-
nance embracing the franchises in
question, and after holding a session
after the committee made a report 60
the Council at its meeting held this
afternoon. The report was favorable
and il was adopted by the Council
and the ordinance passed
The ordinance is identical WITH the
one originally submitted and EN-.
braces exactly the same terms and
conditions. The citizens of Annauo-
lis. therefore, get the benefit Of the
original terms not only as to private
consumers, but as to public lighting.
This is so because the ordinance as
passed, contains a provision that with
in three months the new company will
light the city, not under the contract
which the city had previously made
with the old company, but under the
rates and terms named in the ordi-
nance. In other words the company
will eliminate the terms Of the old
contract and substitute the lower
rates of the ordinance.
The franchises granted are for
fifty years, but at the same time the
same ordinance sipulates that at no
time during the life Of the franchises
shall the company charge any higher
rates than those set out in the ordi-
nance, which are: For arc lamps,
$40 each per year, compared 20 $50 as
form arly; incandescent lamps, $12
per year, an1 TO private consumers
the race shall be at 10 cents per X
w. hour, with a reduction of 10 per
cent on all bills if paid on or before
the 18th of each month, and there is
also a sliding scale as pertaining to
which another reduction is secured.
An installation char ye Of ST per
month is to be made for meters, but
whenever the amount Of consumption
exceeds certain amount, this charge
is to be eliminated from bills.
officials of the company here to-
day intimated that final announce
ment of the merger by which the
Public Utilities Company will ac-
quire absolute control over the old
Annapolis Gas and Electric Light
Company will be made by Saturday.
The purchase price is not stated,
but is understood to be in the neigh
borhood of sI00, 600. The new com
pany will use the old plant as dis
tributing agency, but il will be thor
oughly modernized by the installation
Of new machinery throughout.
Not only will che city get the BEN
eft of cheaper rates, but the company
promises service far superior to that
which the municipality and residents
have enjoyed in the past.

selves to be overcharged by the
"Parcels Post?" This announcement
of zones" sounds AMI looks verv
well in print, but if all mail matter
and parcels We're sent direct from An
napolis to Washington by the only
road running between the United
States capital and the State capital.
our mails would not be DELAYED nor
would they travel over so much
ground.
1t is the ground or distance our
parcels travel over that we have to
pay for. had one letter take a day
and a-hslf between Annapolis and
Washington. 1 do not think it is in
cumbent upon the citizens of Annap-
oils and the government to assist an
electric road at the inconvenience and
expense of the people.
Why can not some one get up a
petition and find out how many people
are willing to pay the extra postage
10 all mail matter for Washington
may not go first to Baltimore and then
to Washington, while there are seven
teen trains leaving Annapolis for
Washington. over the W., B. g. A.,
