P. u. HEARING
IN LEWISTON

Lewiston. Feb. 2S.-In an effort to
agree upon the price which the Tur-
ncr Light and Power Co should pay
the Turner electric road for current
Electric Co. a hearing was held be
fore the Public Utilities commission
Monday afternoon in the Lewiston
Chamber of Commerce rooms.
The Turner Light and Power COM
pany furnishes the villages of Tur-
ncr and Buckfeld with light and cleo
trio power. Although the company
generates its own electricity, the sup
ply is insufficient at times. and they
applied to the Androscoggin Electric
Co. for additional current. The An
droscOgGin Co. was already supplying
the trolley line from East Auburn to
Turner with power and an arrange
ment was made by which enough eX-
ira current could be supplied to the
trolley line so that it could be trans
mtted in turn to the Turner Light
and Power Co. when needed.
This was satisfactory to all three
colilpdHitS toHcclleu, except tHe price
paid to the Turner road for the trans
mtted power The Turner Light and
Power Co. claims that the trolley line
should charge only as much as it
pays the Androscoggin Electric Co.
The managers of the trolley line,
which is owned by the town. claims
that Il profit should be received for
the service given.
A number of Turner residents at
tended the hearing. George G. Web
Der OF Auburn, president of the Tur-
ner Light and Power Co, was the
principal witness. This company was
represented by Attorney w. Fl. Ske,-
ton and Attorney Harry Manser APP
pcared for the trolley line.
