COUNCIL MEET GAS CHARGE
Council Receives Report of Citizens
Committee Regarding Business
Conditions of Ohio Gas, Light &
Coke Company - Manager Makes
Plea for Relief in Order to Con-
tinue Gas Production.

The one big thing before the Coun-
Gil at the meeting last Monday night
was the question of the Readiness to
Serve" charge of 25 cents per month
which the Ohio Gas, Light & Coke
company has recently added to the
monthly bills of gas consumers.
Messrs Lockman and Batdorf were
present to seek information concern
ing the rate they should pay for
, driveways on their properties on
Beech street.
Acting in accordance with resolu-
ton adopted by the council at the
last regular meeting in October, the
mayor appointed Messrs. F. H. Reig-
hard, f. J. Spencer, F. R. Guilford,
and Carl Orth a citizens committee
to examine the books and manage
ment Of the Ohio Gas, Light & Coke
company, and report their findings to
the council.
This report was filed with the
clerk and was read to the Council.
We give herewith the complete re-
port:
/ Wauseon, Ohio, Dec. 3, 1917.
To the Hon. Mayor and Members of
Councils:
! We, your committee, appointed by
the Mayor, pursuant to a motion
adopted by your honorable body au-
thorizing the appointment of "Citi.
{ zens' Committee to go to Napoleon
I Ohio, and examine the books of The
Ohio Gas, Light G Coke Co., and re-
port as to whether the twenty-five
(25) cent service charge is just" beg
leave to submit the following report:
In compliance with the motion au-
thorizing the appointment of the
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1917-12-07
LEHMAN MURDER TRIAL
Happenings from Day to Day in Trial of Fred Lehman
Accused of Murder of His Wife, Grace, Septem-
Der IL, l7-Impaneling The Jury

The trial of Frederick Lehman,
charged with first-degree murder, be-
gan last Monday morning in the court
room, where only a few years ago
Carl Berg was tried on the same
charge and convicted.
The setting, however, is vastly diff
ferent. Berg was a stranger here,
and his victim also a stranger. The
evidence showed that Berg had shot
at and killed fellow hobo whom he
was "holding up" as his victim was
running from the freight car in which
the two had been fellow travellers.
Frederick Lehman is a native of
Fulton county, known by many peo-
pie; his schoolmates and friends of
his lifetime are about him; his par
ents are well known and respected
citizens of the county Prosperous,
with a fine home and seemingly
happy prospects for the future, he
stands before the bar of Justice in
his own home, among his own people,
accused of taking the life Of the one
woman whom he had pledged himself
to love, honor and protect--his young
and beautiful wife. Possibly no one
in all the county but is hoping that
this trial may be perfectly fair and
that no injustice to Lehman May rest
in the minds of any if he shall be
proven innocent.
Sheriff Boone brought Lehman into
the court room at about O'Clock
Monday morning and he bacame al
once the center upon which the at.
tention of the fair-sized audience
which had gathered in the court room
was fixed.
Lehman is looking we'll; he was
neatly dressed and bore himself we'll

inspected the plant and examined the
books, reports, etc, in the office of
the Ohio Gas, Light & Coke Com
pany. Mr.. j. A. Sloan, manager of
the Company, was present and spent
the entire day answering our ques-
tons and rendered what assistance
he could to aid US in the prosecution
OF our work. After spending much
time in making this investigation, we
have arrived at the conclusion that,
owing to our ineXperience with the
manufacturing and distribution of
gas, we are unable to comply with
that part of the motion which directs
that we shall report "as to whether
the 25 cent service charge is just
10 ascertain this information, we
would recommend that you secure the
services of some expert or gas en-
glneer, from the State Utilities Com
mission or elsewhere.
In making our investigation, sew
eral items which went into the eX-
pense of the manufacture of gas, its
distribution and consumption, to-
gether with the sale of by-products,
were of such Importance that we re-
spectfully submit the same for your
consideration.
We made a careful study of re-
port of the transactions of the Com
pany, submitted by Price, Water
house & Co., expert accountants, of
Detroit, Mich, covering a period from
July l, 1914, to Dec. 81, 1916, and
We recommend the entire report for
your consideration.
One part of this report to which
we call your particular attention, is
found on page 6, and deals with the
volume and amount of the sales anC
the average unit prices realized from
the different towns served by the
Company. The average price per l.,
600 cubic feet for the year 1916, is
as follows:
Napoleon, $1.O9; Wauseon, $1.23
Bryan, $1.18; Delta, $0.95; Montpe
lier, $1.16; Archbold and Stryker
$O.62.
This difference in price is due tt
the towns having large consumers
In this connection we invite your at
tention to a report prepared by tn
Company and submitted to the Stat
Utilities Commission in August thi
year, and to that part which give
special rates for large consumers
fixing a sliding scale from 65c pc
1000 cubic feet to $1.25 per LOO
cubic feet
Exhibit "B" of the report gives tn
cost, excluding return and deprecia
tion, for the first six months of 191
at $1,395 per 1000 cubic feet, whic
is the total cost for the small con
sumer. This exhibit further show
that the total o2erating expense fo
the year 1914 was 1886 per M; fo
1915, 97.97 per M; for 1916, 971
per NJ, and for the first six month
of 1917, as given above. With thi
information we are of the opinio
that the minimum rate as shown i
the schedule is too low.
The cost of coal for the first min
months of 1916 was 15,79612, at a
average price of $2.51 per ton; fo
the same period of time in 1917, tn
cost was $36,O22.45, at an averag

he has gained ten pounds in weight
since his confinement in the county
Jail, and is in excellent physical con-
dition. He has expressed himself as
being confident that the trial will
end in establishing his innocence.
Neither of the parents of Lehman
was present at the opening of the
trial, on account of the illness of his
father, Daniel Lehman, who is over
come by the tragedy that has come
into the life of his son, who has
worked side by side with him through
the years to secure the measure of
prosperity which is theirs, and to es-
tablish comfortable homes. Lehman
is fortunate in having associated with
Attorney Fred B. Fowler in his de-
fense, Judge John w. Winn of De-
fiance, who has had wide experience
as attorney for the defendant in first
degree murder cases-this being the
ninth such case in which he has par
ticipated in this capacity. If Freder-
ick Lehman is ably defended, he is
no less ably prosecuted. Mr.. Charles
I. Stahl, the prosecuting attorney, is
ably assisted by Attorneys +. S.
Ham, George Everett, and Clyde Can
field. These gentlemen may be re-
lied upon to bring out every bit of
evidnce and depelop every phase of
the case that goes toward establish
ing the guilt of the accused.
Other prominent characters in the
drama of real life which is being en-
acted at the court house, are Judge
Wolf, on the Bench; Davis Johnson
clerk of courts; Sheriff Boone and his
deputy, John McQuillin; P. H. Bayes
veteran soldier, who is the court bal.
lift, and Frank Kniffin, court stenog.
