cost of S4.37' This shows an increase
for coal alone for the first nine
months of 1917 over that of 1916 of
500, ,226.33.
The receipts from the sale of by
products for the first nine months of
1916 was $1O,192.75 and that for the
same period of time in 1917 it was
$18,238.65, an increase of $8,045.90.
This leaves a net increase on the cost
of coal for the first nine months of
1917 over that of 1916 of $12,108.43.
The current price paid for coal by
the Company today is Sc per ton.
Exhibit "B" of the report submit
ted to the State Public Utilities Com
mission shows the general expense
and production cost of the Company
to be as follows:
Production cost, less residues.-
1916, 30.38 per M. 1917, 64.91 per M.
General Expense

The Price, Waterhouse & Co. re-
port gives the profit without allowing
any interest charge on investment, as

cember 81, 1916. The increased cost
of coal for the first nine months of
1917 over that for the same period
of time in 1916 was 12,108.43. 1t is
apparent from the figures presented
to us that the increased cost of coal
for the first nine months of this year
more than offset the prof of 1916.

Council Meets Gas Charge After
ReDOrt

Report
Following the reading of the re-
port, the clerk read copy of a reso-
luton presented by the Gas Com
pany, which the Council held for con-
sideration. In the discussion that fol-
lowed, some of the Councilmen ex-
pressed the desire that Mr.. ]. A.
Sloan, manager of the Gas company,
be present to explain the difference in
average rates paid by consumers in
the various towns served by the gas
company. Mr.. Sloan was called ana
explained that a few large consum-
ers in some places and consumers
who furnished their own pipe line
and containers in others, brought the
average rate down to the low figures
indicated in the report made by the
examining committee. Mr.. Sloan also
outlined the situation which now con-
fronts the Gas Company, assured the
Council that the Readiness to Serve
Charge had been adopted by the
company as one of the measures by
which the company hopes to meet the
present emergency and continue to
manufacture and deliver gas to their
customers; that they do not desire to
continue this charge when conditions
return to normal.
The readiness to serve charge is
but one of the measures the company
have adopted to enable them to con
tinue in business. Other measures in
clude the reduction of operating ex
penses by cutting salaries, etc.
Mr.. Sloan, in outlining the situa
ton, very clearly indicated that with
out such relief as the service charg,
may give, the company would b.
forced out of business and the sup
ply of artificial gas from the plan
would ultimately cease. The Council
with the exception of Hill, favored
communicating with the Public Utili
ties Commission, asking their opinion
as to the necessity and business o
the Readiness to Serve Charge, AM
the Mayor appointed City Solicito
Files, and Councilmen Howard an
Ives to formulate and forward a re
quest for such information.
While the Council must of neces
sity, in view of their responsibilit,
to the public, act only after the mos
careful deliberation and in such
manner as not to jeopardize the bes
interests and welfare of the citizens
it seems to us that those who are re
lying upon the gas for commercial
or domestic use will recognize tn
fact that their own interest will b
best served at this time by heIpinl
the gas company in their present di
lemma to the extent of paying tn
service charge.

Every gratifying of Mr.. Sundays
work is the influence that he is hav-

est temperance orator of the time.
His talks to men and to young men

They told him that some people said
that it was the methods he used.
That some people declared that it was
