OFFERS TO CUT RATES .
FOR ELECTRIC CURRENT
Power Company Files New Schedule
of Charges for Heating and
Cooking Purposes.

The Potomac Electric Power COM
pany TODAY. of its own volition. filed
with the public utilities commission
new schedule of charges which, If
adopted, will materially reduce the
prices now charged for electricity useo
for cooking and heating purposes.
In lieu of the present taraH OF lo
cents per kilewatt hour for the hrs'
120 kilowatt hours and b cents 1or
every kilowatt hour thereafter, the
company proposes to charge In the iu-
ture 10 cents per kilowatt hour Tor the
first ten hours and cents per kilowatt
hour for all electricity used monthly IN
excess of that amount.
The proposed schedule will enable tne
power concern better to meet compel
ton from the gas companies IN the
matter of furnishing heat.
Cheaper electric rates has been one OF
the objects sought by the pubic utlll-
ties commission for changing the rela-
tions of the power company and the
Washington Railway and Electric COM
pany.
tached to the company's request in con. .
nection with the commissions study OF
rate questions may only be conJectured.
So far as known, it is the utillty boara
plan SO to alter the relationship pe-
tween the power concern and the rail-
way company as to enable the former
to reduce rates all along the line, for
lighting as well as heating purposes.
The proposed new rates do not apply to
lighting, but only to cooking and heat
ing.
Aim Is to Meet Competition.
The company's reasons for desiring
to reduce it's rates are not stated, but
the theory generally accepted is that IL
is going out for share of the busl-
ness now done by the gas companies.
The new rates will put it in position
