POOR OPERATING METHODS
ARE BLAMED FOR CONDITIONS
IN MUNICIPAL LIGHT PLANT

that a competent boilerroom foreman
had already been secured on the verb
al recommendation of Mr. Lyon.
Preliminary Report.
The report says that the conclu-
sions arrived at are the result of pre-
liminary study only, carried on by Mr..
Lyon and his assistant Mr.. Coughlin,
who have been secured to put the
plant in shape. The immediate sug-
gestions made were made so as to
expedite the work of putting the plant
in shape.
"By far the greater part of the equip
ment in the plant is good Properly
operated and maintained there is no
reason for unduly high fuel cost and
if a few weak points are strengthened,
there is no reason for unreliable SER
vice." the Introduction to the report
states.
Some of the other particular parts Of
the plant to be repaired are the Jones
stokers. which are said to need re-
pairs Immediately; worse than the
newer Westinghouse. A power dump
is recommended for the latter.
The SCOT blowers need overhauling
it was stated.
Improper Connections.
Only two of the six feed water reg
ulators have been installed that were
ordered a few months ago, and these
have been connected improperly
The feed water heaters do not work
correctly, being heated at about 130-
135, when they should be up to 210-
PIP. This is partly due to connec-
tions, lack of trays and operators. This
item alone is said to add $40 to $40
per day to over all operating costs.
Repairs for this have been ordered.
A system to reduce the cost of
boiler room labor is being worked on.
1t was said that this would be easy
with expensive equipment, but efforts
are being made to work out something
with lower cost and reasonable effec-
tiveness.
Conditions in the turbine room are
relatively better, Mr.. Lyons states.
More or less important sources OF
waste have been located. Steam leaks
have been stopped.
The operation of the centrifugal
pump continuously is said to be un-
safe, and a reserve capacity must be
provided. A new centrifugal pump is
recommended.
Wants Fitness Shown
"Once the plant is brought into
good condition it is possible to keep it
so. / am inclined to give all employees
every opportunity to demonstrate
their ability to fit into new operating
methods. l shall expect prompt dem
onstration of such fitness. The bur
den Of proof certainly lies upon the
men who have allowed the plant to
get into it's present condition" the re-
port runs.
There should be no difficulty in
securing competent men and no other
kind should be tolerated." Lyin says.
1t was further pointed out that con
siderable time would be necessary to
affect the transformation that would
be necessary but that the willingness
of the board of works, who have CO.
operated in the work of Mr.. Lyons
thus far, would enable them to guar.
antee continuous service.

PARIS, Dec. 27.-Fiuman legionaries
and Dalmatian volunteers at Zara. the
Dalmatian coast. have surrendered to
Italian regulars, after falling in an
attempt to capture the Italian ship
Marsala. The volunteers boarded the
vessel, but the crew resisted capture
and seized 81 of the legionaries. land
ing them at Ancona, an Italian port
on the western side of the Adriatic,
says a Havas dispatch.
ROME, Dec. 27.-Little hope that
Captain Gabrielle d'Annunzio will be
able to hold Fiume against Italian reg
ulars is entertained by Signor Odenigo,
local representative of the regency
of Quarnero, who with several friends
and sympathizers, has been anxiously
awaiting developments along the Adri-
attic.
Il am afraid all is lost, unfortunate
ly even honor" said Signor Odenigo
today. "All advices point to the con-
clusion that we must abandon even
the last hope of being Italian, as the
government has granted the port of
Daross. between Fiume and Susak,
to Jugo-Slavia, under a secret under
standing. The Italian government is
now preparing to occupy Fiume with
military forces and apply the treaty
by force. Captain dAnnunzio. with
4,500 men, cannot resist an attack by
1000 unless a miracle happens, but
it is a shame"
LONDON, Dec. 27-Italian govern
ment forces today were believed to
be slowly, but inexorably, closing an
iron ring around Fiume, where Cap
tain Gabrielle d'Annunzios and his
force of legionaries were standing
siege. Reports from the city have
been meagre, but it appears that the
soldiers commanded by General Cav
iglia had forced the D.Annunzio lines
back into the outskirts of the city, and
that the fall of the city might not
be long delayed. Land and sea
forces arrayed against D'AnnunZio be-
gan TO move toward the city yester-
day. and advices indicated the grip
they had taken had reduced the legion
aries in Fiume to an almost hopeless
| position. The land advance was made
from three directions, and did not en-
counter any resistance. The DAN
nunzion soldiers fell back as the gov
ernment troops moved thead, and it
was declared the poet-soldier had di-
rected his officers not to open fire
on the advancing troops until he had
| personally given orders to that effect.
The Italian regulars were under
stood to have been under orders not
to fire unless they were compelled
TO do so.
