with a flash of her white teeth.
"Mr. Blaine told me to report to him

he didn't tell me to talk to anyone

to undertake this for you, you said

The Gas Rate Decision

Although the public utility commission did
not grant the gas company the rates it petitioned
for, the company nevertheless received such a
substantial increase in it's rates. that it can feel
well satisfied with the result. AS indicated in
news stories and editorial comment. the gas COM
pany received every benefit possible in the decis
ion and the people nothing The indianapolis
News editorially takes the same view of the rul-
ing. Yesterday it had the following to say:
There is much that is disquieting to patrons
of public utilities in the decision just announced
by the public service commission in the case of
the Richmond Light, Heat and Power Company
The gross rate that is now possible for the COM
pany to charge for each thousand feet of natur-
al gas is 80 cents, which amounts to 100 per
cent. increase over the previous schedule. This
new rate is based on valuation that includes
equipment now Inactive erected for the distri-
button of artificial gas In other words, although
the city of Richmond enjoys natural gas service,
it is denied the economy that such service offers
other places, and is required, on order of the
public service commission to pay a rate that
takes into account money alleged to have been in
vested by the company in artificial gas plant
equipment
'The producing plant of the petitioner" says
the commission, may be called into active serv-
ice at any time. We have determined to regard
it as a part of the property upon which the COM
pany is entitled to fair return"
There is nothing in the decision to show.that
the public service commission believed the people
of Richmond to be entitled to an economical rate,
due to the presence Of natural gas Although
natural gas, according to statement brought out
in cross-examination at the hearing, costs the
Richmond Light, Heat and Power company %
cents thousand feet, delivered in Richmond
from the West Virginia fields, where the COM
pany operates, it is to be resold to the consumers
at 80 cents gross or 70 cents net largely because
the company owns property that may become
useful" at some obscure time when the supply

Nothing. except that couple of
days ago. he had an awful row with a
man who called on him. It was about
money matters, / think, and the old
gentleman got very much excited. Not
cent! he kept repeating, louder and
louder, until he fairly shouted. Not
one more cent will you get from me.
This systematic extortion of yours
must come to an end here and now!
I've done all I'm going to, and you'd
better understand that clearly Then
the other man, the visitor, got angry,
too, and they went at 1t hammer and
tongs. At last, Mr.. Mallowe must
have lost his head completely, for he
accused the other man of robbing his
safe. At that, the visitor got calm and
cool as q cucumber. all of a sudden,
and began to question Mr.. Mallowe.
1t seems from what l heard-I can't
recall the exact words-that not very
long ago. the night Waterman in the
offices was chloroformed and the safe
ransacked, but nothing was taken ex-
cept a letter.
You're mad!' the strange man
said. Why In h--l should anybody
take letter, and leave packets of gilt
edged bonds and other securities ly-
ing about untouched?'
Because the letter happens to be
one you would very much like to have
in your possession, Paddington," the
old gentleman said. Oh, l forgot to
tell you that the visitors name was
Paddington, but that doesn't matter,
does it? DO you know what it was?'
Mr.. Mallowe went on. 1t was a GER
tain letter which Pennington Lawton
wrote to me from Long Bay two years
ago. Now do you understand"
"'You fool!' said Paddington. You
fool, to keep it! You gave me your
word that you'd would destroy 1t!
Why didn't your
Because, thought 1t might come
in useful some day, just as it has now,
the old gentleman fairly whined. 1t
was good circumstantial evidence
'Yes-fine!' Paddington said, with
bitter kind of laugh. Fine evidence,
for whoever's got it now'
"'You know very we'll who's got it,
cried Mr.. Mallowe. You don't pull the
wool over my eyes! And l don't mean
to buy it back from you, either, if
that's your game. You can keep it,
for all care; it's served it's purpose
now, and you won't get another penny
from mel So.
We'll, wish you could have heard
them, them" Loretta continued, with
gusto. "They carried on terribly; the
whole office could hear them. 1t was
as good as play-the strange man,
Paddington, denying up to the last
that he knew anything about the rob-
berry, and Mr.. Mallowe accusing him,
and threatening and bluffing it out
for all he was worth! But in the end,
he paid the man some money, for /
remember he insisted on having the
check certified, and the secretary him
self took it over to the bank. l don't
know for what amount it was drawn"
why didn't you tell me that before,
Loretta?" asked Anita, reproachfully
