CITY MANAGER NAGLE is TAKING
THE MATTER UP AND MAY CUT

He Says That Wheeling Is Losing
Thousands Of Dollars by Grant
Inq Such Concessions.

While the city OF Wheeling Is IN a
had way financially. City Manager
George @. NaEie takes an optimistic
view Of the matter and believes that
he will be able 10 put the munlcipat
ity on sound basis without making
an increase n.the lax rate. one or the
means to be taken being the abolish
ment Of free list.
In making an investigation Of the
cltys hooks In the water department
the city manager discovered tha'
there are close TO three hundred IN
Gividuals and corporations who are
getting their water supply from the
city each year for nothing. This has
cost the city thousands OF dollars. for
The non.paymcnt Of these bills Is a
dead loss.
Mr.. Nagle pointed out that all the
churches in Wheeling are supplied
with water frne III cost He said that.
as they were compelled to pay for
their lights. l. was his opinion that
they should pay for their water also.
The hospitals are on the free list

Naglc said. but tl;fr" is a list OF over
TWO hundred people. some Of whom
Grn property owners. who arc getting

it the same as everybody else.
How the names q those on the free

individuals on tho LIST they were all
