OduL I1Sul, "AlIC- WA1ohOAOO caN
florid-faced king o. the public util-
tiles companies Of Illinois, came be-
fore the aldermanic gas committee
yesterday to make new gas rates for
the people of Chicago. 1t happens
to be very opportune time for Sam
to make rates. He has refused the
city access to the books Of the gas
company, because it might help
them to get in pending litigation
over $1O,O0O,000 overcharges to the
people of Chicago by the company.
Now the city, in order to make
fair rate, has to know the exact
value of the plant and property Of
the gas company The gas COM
pany wants to boost the valuation as
much as possible, because the more
their plant is worth the higher rate
they can charge to get a'''fair return
on the investment" That is why an
in-between valuation is being made.
That is why insult kindly offers to let
one gas engineer representing the
city go in and help the fellows he has
hired, and that is why the gas COM
pany is so eager to make new rates.
But insult still refuses to allow the
city full and free access to the mys-
FERROUS documents known as the
books of the gas company. In re-
cent years many valuations of the
property have been made by engi-
neers of the city and the public util-
tiles commission. Averse to the use
of stronger language, insult called
these reports ridiculous. Then he
went on to say that this in-between
valuation would clear up for all time
the allegation that the plant Of the
gas company was overcapitalized
Now a new method of making gas
has sprung up. 1t is the heat unit
standard, a coal gas, while Chicago's
present supply is made of coke and

Of the heat unit standard. He prom
ises a lower rate, but refuses to say
how much lower it will be. He says
it will also increase the use of gas
for manufacturing purposes.
The gas company uses thousands
of carloads of oil yearly. insult says
that if the city does not permit the
company to make gas from coal he
will go before the public utilities
commission and ask for higher rates.
Oils gone up, he repeated many
times.
One of the things the books of the
company will reveal is whether or
not the gas company has contract
for this oil, how much it costs them
and how long the contract runs.
If they have a ten-year contract
made short time ago and get the
permission from the city to manu-
facture gas from coal, they can re-
sell this oil, which has increased in
price tremendously in the past year.
When insult told the aldermen the
litigation was progressing in a man
ner satisfactory to his company, Aid.
Merriam remarked that the case
was now being heard in chancery
and the committee on gas litigation
would probably have the books of
the gas company at their disposal
through a writ of mandamus in a
few weeks.
insult stated several times that the
company was DESTROYS of ending the
that he didn't think it
would ever get them anywhere, and
the only people who were making
money, or would make money out Of
it, were the lawyers.

DISLIKE OF CLOGS IN
ENGLAND DISAPPEARING
rBy Associated P r },

LONDON, Eng.-Among the many
interesting changes that the war is
bringing in the habits of Londoners is
that the strong prejudice against
clogs among the poor in some parts
OF the METROPOLIS is giving way before
necessity. The fact accentuates fur
Their the revolution in London's social
Eabits, and it is due to the great In
crease in the cost of boots and shoes.
Clogs are dearer, too. but by only a
fraction of the cost of other footwear.
The absolute refusal heretofore of
the poor to wear clogs as rejecting
their feeling that they were sign of
disgraceful level of poverty or as
the stigma of, charity has not until
now been overcome even by their free
distribution to the children in tile
schools by charitable organizations.

We expect to carry the fifth with
out the loss of a man. or perhaps not
more than one. The senatorial ticket
is strong in the fifth and will help to
offset the Republican lead in the
fourth. Our representatives in the
fourth have more than a fighting
chance for the Independent vote.
The strength of the straight Re

primary by the use Of machines and
other forced measures. The straight
Democratic vote has a heavy reserve

McCandless said today:
Il am very we'll pleased with the
result Of the election, on this island
and, at the present time, know very
little of what happened on the other
