the same size as Atlanta, atul the con
dition* prevailing there are abuut the
name a* here." '
Arkwright Antwers Terrell.
Pre»ldent Arkwright, of the Georgia
Railway and Electric Company, an
swered the statement of Councilman
Terrell.
"Thera I* not a city In ,the TJnltld
States," he said, "where gas Is sold
cheaper than In Atlanta, where special
considerations do not enter Into. It, such
as having natural gas, or buying gas as
a by-product. The councilman says
gas can be sold In Richmond at 6*
cents, but the fact remains that It Is
now being sold at tl.
"Now, os for Richmond, wo bay* no
means of telling Just what are the ar
rangements between the street car
companies with the councils of differ
ent cities, but I will take my friend's
figures to be correct.
"Kara* arc sold there six for a quar
ter at all hours and two for a nickel
before 7 o’clock In the morning. In
addition, school children get 40. tickets
for a dollar, good from 8 o'clock In the
morning untU 4 o'clock In the after
noon.
"And this, gentlemen, Is why the
Richmond company went Into the
hands of a receiver In 1904. Anil this
Is why that company Is bankrupt. In
solvent, 'busted' today. Is that the po
sition Councilman Terrell desires our
company to get In?" >
Why a Receiver Waa Named.
Councilman Terrell communicated
with the councilman from Richmond
over the 'phone.
"Mr. Ellett atated," Councilman Ter.
roll said, "that the company went Into
tbo hands of ji receiver because of some
kind of a crooked deal and that this Is
the first time In all hla life he ever
heard even an Intimation that the
cheap fares caused It."
President Arkwright then stated that
he could not understand why bonds
should cause the operating expenses to
be greater than the revenues.
In reference to the Richmond Gas
Company, President Arkwright cited
the fact that the committee appointed
by the National Civic Federation to
pass upon the municipal ownership
question, took his gas plant as a model
far the privately-owned ones, and that
the same committee reported the plant
at Richmond to be "notoriously rotten."
Councilman Terrell later again took
up the discussion of his resolution.
•There can be no question,” he said,
that there should be a standard sys
tem of ■ Inspection for the g , meter*
and the railroad commission ■ should ,flx
this. The gas rates ought to be re
duced and everybody knows that.
Service Should be Improved.
"The street car service I* not whnt It
ought to be and It should be Improved.
The fares ought to bo reduced and
everybody knows that.
"Why, then, should It not go to the
railroad commission, where the author
ity la vested to. do tlieso things. Wo
have not tho power. I hnvo ntTcrcd to
treat .with tho . companies, but they
won't treat.
"This kick nbout prejudging the case
Is nothing. Isn't the city of Atlanta a
patron of all these companies? Don't
we pay, for street car faro for our em
ployees? Don’t we pay for gas and
electric light*? Don't we pay for our
telephones? Can't we then petition the
railroad commission to make nn In
vestigation and see whether or not we
nro paying too much? Certainly we
have this right, and to say the city has
not Is perfectly absurd.
"I wish to call your attention to the
fact that gas was once sold In Atlanta
at 60 cents. As far as this Richmond
business goes that company hns always
been a paying proposition and the In
come actually Increased after the rate
reductions went Into effect. It Is In the
hands of a receiver as the result pf a
dispute between tho promoters and the
holders of watered stock."
Simmons Speaks.
At the conclusion of this dlscussl .n,
the telephone section wns considered.
C. J. Simmons, of the Atlantn comismy,
atated it would put his company under
a 11.60 rate and that It could not stand
It, Alderman Qullllan then told of tha
poor service of the Bell, and stated
that the council, the railroad commis
sion or somebody ought to'take It up.
W. T. Gentry, of the Southern Bell,
was out of the city, and final action
was postponed until a further meeting
at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, when
Mr. Gentry will bo heard.
Alderman Beutell had made a mo
tion, which was seconded by Alderman
Peters, to adverse the sections relating
to the reductions In gas and car fires,
and alt the members of the committee
hod expressed approval of this motion
except Councilman Terrell, but It waa
withdrawn In order that the entire mu
ter may be settled one way or the other
Tuesday.
Alderman Beutell was In favor of
adverslng the telephone seetlon of-tho
resolution without even hearing tho
arguments on either aide, but finally
gave In.
