HEAT SUPPLIED
TO ALEDo USERS


r. T. Larkin, district superin-
tendent of the Illinois Northern
Utilities company, announced this
morning that the furnaces OF the
heating plant in Aledo would pc
fred today to supply heat to the
business district Of the city. The
sudden drop in temperature OF
Tuesday night and yesterday
brought to the minds Of many
Aledoans the question of whether
or not the utilities commission
would order the company to supply
heat this winter. So far. no word
has been received from the COM
mission regarding the petition fled
several months ago by the utilities
company for permission to In
crease the rates here.
1t has been generally under
stood that the company would en-
deavor to escape furnishing heat
this winter, II the requested in
crease was not granted. However,
Mr.. Larkin has decided to supply
heat while awaiting the verdict OF
the utilities commission.
He stated this morning that the
boilers Of the heating plant, which
were in very poor condition last
winter, have been repaired, and the
company is prepared to supply
heat in sufficient quantities to bring

knows that Graham left Davenport
last October fully in control of his
