LONDON, Feb 26--Berlin claims
the Germans have captured Beau

this followed the collapse OF the

that the whole French force defend

all private business and industrial in

creased in value not less than so per
cent of what they were during the

company was organized. Il is fur

Public Service Commission Reduces
Rates of GOIdfieId Water Company

Yesterday the Public Service com
mission Of Nevada, i'll majority
opinion written by Commissioner
Shaughnessy and a separate concur
ring opinion by Commissioner Bar
tine, ordered the Goldfield Water
company's rates, covering its domes-
tic and commercial water service, re-
duced from an average OF SO per l,COo
gallons to maximum of So per 1,O0O
gallons, and its rates covering sewer
service from an average of $.l5, for
commercial service to maximum OF
S5 per connection per month, and
from an average Of $3.50 for domestic
service to maximum of 81 per
n onth.
The minimum monthly charges pre-
scribed, and within which it is order
ed that the water company may file
as a part of its rate schedule such
non-discriminatory classification of its
service and charges as may be neces-
sary to meet local conditions, are as
70 lows:
Commercial service, So per month;
domestic service, $3.50 per month for
that class having sewer facilities, and
- per month for that class without
sewer facilities. The commissions
rate schedule is ordered effective on
or before April l, 1916.
The opinion shows that the high
rates maintained by tha water COM
pany have had the effect of restrict
ing the consumption of water for
domestic purposes to an average of
approximately two gallons per capi-
ia per day, whereas it is estimated
that not less than ten gallons of wa
ter per capita per day is reasonably
necessary for domestic purposes and
ordinary health and cleanliness, and
that the usual amount used for these
purposes, where the rates are not re-
strictive, ranges from twenty to TWEEN
ty-five gallons of water per capita
per day. 1t is further shown that said
rate schedule was based largely upon
boom conditions OF the past, when
practically everything in the district
