heretofore had stood firmly
against the auxiliary power deal,
declaring that it was unfair to
the city, Topped over to the ma
jority today.
In an apologize explanation,
Drake announced that he had
tried to induce the I. II. & p. Co
to- make better proposition, but
that Bean had refused.
He said that he still believed
tlfe city would be at a disadvant-
age in seeking auxiliary power
unfier the Bean proposition, since
the city would have to pay an ex-
ofbitant rate for the juice, but
that he was convinced that he
could do no better.
Council "Only Fair"
sCollins was called forth by
Mills, and he told the council that
the city would be able to guar
antee continuous current up 10
the power plants capacity-24,-
900 horsepower-if the city
hooked upwit h the r. II. & Z.
system, while at present it is not
able to guarantee anythink like
even half the plants capacity.
He did not comment on the price
charged by Bean.
! There was no discussion of the
power franchise that the council
voted to return to the T. r. e r..
This franchise was Cancelled lasA
year because the company had
violated it by selling electric
light current.
The case went through the
cburts, and only recently a deci-
Sion in favor of the city came
from the supremeco urt.
Despite this fight, the council
decided that it would be "only
fair" to let the Stone-We bster
people re-enter the power field.
Bean Suggests Jitneys.
In answer to questions-ap-
parently all prepared and re-
hearsed-that were put to him by
Mills, Bean told the council that
he expected to ask permission TO
build the Pacific avenue fran
chise as soon as he has changed
over the Steilacoom line, whicl
will be within four months. He
also said that he though he. could
route cars across the Tacoma ave-
nue. fill by spring, IL the franchise
were given him. .s
I Bean declared. however, that
he had no intention of running
further than 48th street on Pa
cific avenue, although the coun-
ell insisted on his accepting a
franchise to Gath. He said that
he would much prefer operating
iitney buses ON the street, VITA
transfer privileges, than going to
the expense of the new line.
And he also explained that he
would not consider building tie
line had not President Shacksl-
ford of the T. r. q p. promised
the city some years ago to do it
as soon as the Steilacoom line
was rebuilt.
Referendum Threatened.
The franchises cannot be passed
for 80 days. The auxiliary pow
or proposition will probably be
famed into an ordinance by
wednesday. and taken up for
passage a week from that time
y Mayor Fawcett today said that
citizens had come to him and an
nounced that they would start a
referendum on the auxiliary pow
er scheme.
TITS the most criminal out
rage that ever was perpetrated in
this city hail." exclaimed the
mayor today.
"If there ever was graft In this
building, there Is graft mixed up
with this steal. 'rhe confidence
OF the public has been violated
most outrageously. l don't blame
the people for losing their temper
! over it."

W. G. Tandy, city commissioner of
streets, made a motion that the city
attorney be instructed to draft an or
dinance reducing the rates charged for
electric light current by the Topeka
Edison company. The motion carried
unanimously.
Nothing was said in the motion as
to what reductions should be made,
but following the meeting of the city
commission, conference between AL
bert Patten, Thomas Doran and A. H.
Purdy, representing the Edison COM
pany, and the mayor and members of
the city commission was held in an eff
fort to come to an agreement on the
matter of reductions.
No agreement was reached the Edi-
son people offered to reduce the rate
for domestic lighting from 9 cents to
71a cents per kilowatt-hour, provided
the minimum could be raised from 40
cents to IS cents. The city stood out
for cent rate on current and in
sisted that minimum remain at 40
cents, and it is understood that this is
the rate which the city will incorpor-
ate in the ordinance to be drawn by
the city attorney.
The decision of the city was in the
nature of an ultimatum.
