Of Third and North D streets by the
board Of Works today, after a con-
ference with w. B. Hudson, general
superintendent of the G. & o. railroad.
The city wishes to widen the street
at that point and called the railroad
official into consultation to ascertain
whether the company wished to ac-
quire additional property for track
space.
Superintendent Hudson said the
company did not want additional prop
erty at that point and would be as
sessed as any other property holder
would be for benefits derived from
widening the street He explained
that double tracks could not be placed
along the present right of way through
Richmond. Should such procedure be
necessary, he said, the road would
have to And another entrance to the

to share any reasonable amount Of eX-
pense in making the improvement, he
believed.

EXPECTS TO TURN
GAS ON THURSDAY
Manager Wharton, of L., ii.
& P. Plans to Inaugurate
Service Next Week.
REQUIRES $500 DEPOSIT
City Attorney Says Board of
Works Will Take Up
Matter.

Natural gas will be turned into the
and Power company by next Thurs
day. This statement was made by }.
B. Wharton, manager OF the company,
today.
while we plan to inaugurate our
natural gas service at that time, we
may find it impossible to do so, for
when the gas is turned on leaks may
be found in some of the new mains.
and it would necessitate turning it off
and resume the artificiar supply until
the defects in the mains have been
remedied," Mr.. Wharton explained.
Many complaints have been made
because the company is requiring each
Of it's natural gas patrons to make
deposit of SIS before service Is given
them. This deposit draws SIX per cent
interest, but the complaint is made
that no such deposit was required for
artificial gas service. This deposit
system has been used by another To-
cal utility, the Water Works company,
for a number of years.
No Action by oBard.
Upon investigation City Attorney
Bond has aSCertalned tnAt under the
ordinance the company Is permitted
to make such rules and regulations, by
and with the consent of the board of
public works. However, the city attor-
ney asserts the board has never acted
on this matter.
1T is my belief that the company is
requiring this deposit on it's own au-
thority," sand Mr.. Bond. "The board
OF works probably will take the matter
up at its next meeting"
Minor troubles are anticipated in es-
tablishing the natural gas service and
the company has employed a large
staff of trouble shooters" so that
prompt attention can be given to all
complaints which will be sent into the
office. Employees of the company also
have been very busy Transforming coal
cooking ranges. CRATES, furnaces and
baseburners into gas burning devices.
Gas TrifIe DIRTY"
The West Virginia natural gas serv-
fee has just been inaugurated at An.
derson, and Richmond people who
have seen 1t in use, say the gas is
dirty" but the pressure exceedingly
strong and that Anderson people seem
to be satisfied with it. All natural
gas is dirty" but the supply which
has been pumped into Indiana from
the West Virginia fields is said to be
much cleaner" than the former sup
ply Of this fuel from the Indiana
fields.

such circumstances are exceptional, al

OF his occupancy OF the office. As a
matter OF fact, there are weeks at a
stretch when, under normal conditions.
the daily mail will seldom exceed 200
letters and the average for long in

was in the neighborhood OF $50 letters
