MAY GRANT REQUEST
FOR HIGHER GAS.
Open Meetings May Be Held to Dis
cuss Question OF Increased Car
FArs.

When the street committee of city
council meets this afternoon at 5
o'clock two matters Of some impor-
lance will be taken up. one being the
petition OF the Virginia Railway and
Power company for a six -cent straight
fare. and the other being a petition
from the Henrico Gas company for
the right to increase its rates from 90
cents to $1.l0.
This latter request may be acted
upon, and inaSmuch as the city has
agreed to increase its gas rate, the
Henrico company may be permitted
to do likewise.
The petition from The street car
company will harliy receive much at
tention at this time. The committee
may hold the petition in allegiance
until the special charter changes COM
mittee makes its report. for the street
car situation has much bearing on
matters pertaining TO the financial
condition of the city. inasmuch as it
pays taxation on Its revenues
In any event IL Is conceded that the
committee will hell open session for
public discussion on the matter. and
that interested citizens will be invited
to express themselves before the COM
rcittee On the subject before action IS
taken

Especially has this been so in the
preparation OF meat for our American
tables. The following are some OF
the secrets of the French cher that
