Ga. Merger Discussed.

Senator GaIlinger's proposed amend
ment to the District appropriation bill,
relative to the merger OF the Two gas
comnanies combined with the meeting
on February 2 of the stockholders OF
the washington Gas Light Company was
the principal theme of discussion IN iocai
financial circles yesterday.
The Gallinger amendment VIII be sent
to the District Commissioners for their
views and later hearings will be held.
The bill was favorably commented upon
The realization that il will bring Scent
gas on both sides of Rock Creek Is
notent argument which also may have
favorable effect on Congress Local Of
ficials believe the BILL will pass. 1t IL
considered unlikely that Commissioner
Newman, in advance of the receipt OF
tbe bill.s would express a positive view
of opposition.
In the meantime the gas suits before
the District Supreme Court will be ar
zued February 2 An effort probably will
be made to amend the Gallinger amend
ment in order that the legality of the
present holdings of the Washington COM
pany may be left open for the decision
of the court. 1t is contended in the suits
that the Washington company does not
legally hold the Georgetown stock.
The forthcoming meeting Of the WASH
ington Gas Light Company stockholders
viii be lively affair, as the minority
stockholders, headed by Edmund K. Fox,
will be insistent upon increasing the
number of directors to fifteen.
There is every indication. however. that
sufficient proxies have been received to
re-elect the present directorate.
Howard S. Reeside win be elected presi-
dent
The text of the Ga1linger amendment is
as follows:
THAT the Public Utilities Commission
of the District Of Columbia is given ,juris-
diction to require that the price of gas
shall be uniform throughout said Dis
trict, and jurisdiction to authorize the
Washington Gas Light Company to ac-
Quire, on terms to be approved by said
commission, all the capital stock or
shares of the Georgetown Gas Light
Company, other than the shares now al
ready owned by the former company,
and also all the property and franchises
Of said Georgetown Gas Light Company.

MAKING AN INVESTMENT

toopyrisht, i.l4. by c. NJ. Keys. New York;


A young man. twenty-six years old.

money tragedies that are so very fire.
ouent in American society in these days
Of extravagance- friend Of his died
quite suddenly, leaving a wife and q
child. When they came to make re-
view Of the conditions. they discovered
that he had left no resources upon which
these, dependent people could live. and
that he had spent his entire income and
had taken no thought whatever for the
future, not even providing so much as a
single policy of life insurance money.
In the winding up of his friends 8 anairs
the young man received good many
impressions which had a deep effect upon
his mind For one thing, he was led to
review his own situation and to look
carefully at the situation IN which his
own wife and child would find themselves
In case he were to die. He found that ne
had been a little more provident than his
friend In that he had about a,5oo Of ac-
cumulated wealth. Both he and his friend
had been salaried men and neither Of
them had any real property, both living
In rented houses. As he contemplated
that 1880. 1t seemed to him TO be very
small provision against the future, and
he determined to make IT stronger IL he
could.
In the first place he decided to invest
Il oDo Of his cash. After going over the
field he selected a good long-term per
cent first mortgage bond, selling near
par, and of a standard class This selec-
ton was made on the advice OF a banker
in whom he had confidence.
The second step was to investigate life
insurance. In this investigation he had
