Paris as the New Reno
By LAURENCE HILLS.

OF course, the conditions of French law

court officials are not so strict regarding

For instance certain counter charges, al
though virtually admitted in court, may
be overbalanced by the defendant openly

First, it is necessary for the applying

may be done by merely renting an apart

Two More Miles on

 Road to Be Paved

The board of supervisors yesterday authorized Tom Maddock, state engi- neer, to advertise for bids for the pay ing of another two miles of the road between Tombstone and Bisbee out of the funds now available in the 75 per cent road fund.
 According to the plans of the board and the state engineer the pavement will be of the same class that has been put down on the ten miles be- tween Tombstone and Bisbee and will bring the pavement close to the bridge over the Sandy Bob Draw" It was at first thought that there would be enough money in the 75 per cent fund to pave at least three more miles, out check of the fund made by the road shows that there is only money enough for the two miles.

Phillips Not Attacked.

Mr. Untermyer attacked Mr.. Phillips's
record in office, both in the public ses-
sions of the committee and in the orgi-
nal draft of the report. The latter at
tack, however, was one of the things
eliminated when the report was pre-

publican and the gossip in certain quar-
ters was that the report had been blue
penciled with the consent of the Demo-
Gratis on the committee, in return for
which the Republican members ex-
cised all critical references to Mayor
Hylan and his Democratic colleagues in

deal yesterday with the statement that

Company. and including the franchises,
which were evaluated at figure over

found, for 1918, that the company de-

in 1919. 2.92 per cent.

Hand predicated his findings as of 1919
was seven cents a gallon"
In January, 1919, the Consolidated
started its fight for Increased rates. In
May Abraham S. Gilbert was appointed
special master to take testimony. a
year later he reported the 80 cent rate
was confiscatory, and in July the Fed
eral court increased the rate from so
cents to 81. A month later it increased
this to $1.20. enjoining the Attorney
General of the State and the Public
Service Commission from enforcing the
so cent rate.
At that time Judge Hand provided
that the excess of so cents should be
impounded. The Judge wrote: Il have
provided that IL the State does not act
before March. 1921 (by way Of passing
q law providing for higher rate) the
plaintiff shall have all the fund and
shall be free to charge what 1t pleases.'
In March another order was issued
permitting the gas company TO raise its
rate to $3.50. On July 81 of last year
the gas company voluntarily announced
a reduction of the rate to $1.25. There
it has remained. pending the outcome OF
the proceeding now before the Public
Service Commission.

GAS DECISION VICTORY
FOR UTILITY CONCERNS
Supreme Court Upholds Right
to Charge Paying Price.
Special Dispatch TO THE New York HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. c., March G.


Washington, ID. c., March 6.
The Consolidated Gas Company of
New York won sweeping victory to-
day when the United States Supreme
Court handed down a decision TO the
effect that the eighty ceent gas law OF
the state of New York was confiscatcry
and unreasonable. The court ordered
the return of the nearly S13,000.000 i'm
pounded during the trial. In its deci-
sion the court said:
THE eighty cent gas rate was con-
fiscatory; the s1.20 maximum imposed
by the court during a specified period
as a condition to the injunction was
a limitation in favor Of the consumers"
The court refused to say what 1t
thought might have been a reasonable
charge for gas in New York.
Mere past success could not support a
demand that the gas company be con-
Quoted at loss, the court declared, and
the old rule against the confiscation of
property which was invoked says: The
public has no such right in respect Of
private property although dedicated to
public use"
The claim that the company had not
provided gas of sufficient candle power
also was dismissed by the court. on
that point the decision said:
lfle company was SUBJECT TO Official
control; the facts as to the candle power
actually furnished were in dispute the
calorific quality had become more inn
portant to most consumers than the
illuminating one; ; the master I'm chan
Gerry reached the conclusion the statu-
tory standard had been substantially
complied with and the company had
tried earnestly under very difficult cir
cumstances to meet its customers re-
quirements.
"Trie company sought relief from an
unlawful burden. the fundamental wrong
arose from The statute and we find moth
ing which could justify refusal with its
demands"
Contention by the state Of New York
that its interests were not properly
safeguarded during the hearing of the
case by the master in chancery was dis
missed as frivolous.
Undoubtedly during the many
months devoted to the hearings" says
