fare and return them to their parents

ANSWER FILED BY
POWER COMPANY
The Charge That Rates Are
Too High Is Strenuously
Denied.

The Marsh Mining company's COM
plant that the rates of the Washing
ton Water Power company for cleo
tricity furnished the former company
are too high is answered by the power
company in a document filed today
with the public utilities commission of
this state. The Washington Water
Power company asks the commission
to vacate the order directing it to APP
pear to the Marsh Mining company's
complaint and that ii be permitted to
charge and collect the rates shown in
the schedule on file with the COM
mission.
The Marsh Mining company alleged
in its complaint in addition to the
charge of unjustly high rates that 1t
had an agreement covering certain
charges to be made by the Washington
Water Power company ana that there
arose a difference between the two
concerns as to the rate to be charged
after January of the present year.
Power Company's Answer.
In answer, the Washington Water
Power company says:
Defendant denies that there has
has been any dispute over any rate to
: be charged for said power and alleges
the fact to be that the only rates which
the defendant has in the Occur d'Alene
mining districts are the rates on file
with the commission"
This statement is in answer to the
charge of the Marsh Mining company
that 1t was forced to pay a higher
rate for electrical energy than other
mining companies in the immediate vi
entity
The Washington Water Power COM
pany threatened to cut off its power to
the Marsh Mining company if it did
not pay up and the Marsh Mining COM
pany appealed to the commission to
prevent this from being done. The
commission issued temporary order
to the Washington Water Power COM
pany, directing it not to take this ac-
ton until the trouble pending between
the two companies and before the COM
mission was heard.
In its answer the Washington Water
Power company admits that it made
this threat unless the Marsh Mining
company paid to it the $257S.53 due for
power used, but it denies that this
sum Is in excess of the regular charges,
but declares that the rate was less
than the complainant would have been
charged if the schedule on file with
the commission had been followed out
1t further denies that the rate is un-
Just or exorbitant in any way.
The Marsh Mining company is one Of
the large mining concerns in the Occur
d'Alene district, while the Washington
Water Power company serves practi-
cally all of that territory with cleo
tricity for power purposes.
