In defense of his been on the verge of ruin, but the men [resolution, cited the case of Richmond. "Mr. Ellett, a councilman for thirty [ years In Richmond," Councilman Ter rell stated, "has Informed me that In his city, where 12.60 Is paid for wages, as against the much cheaper wage paid the negro employees by the local gas I company, and where coal la 12.87 as against 22.87 paid here, gas Is sold now at 81 per thousand feet, and that It can be sold at a profit of 60 cents per thou sand feet. "And here are the rates for street car fares In Richmond: The rates are six for a quarter at all hours of the I day and two for 8 cents before 7 o’clock In the morning.

The.city of Rlcltmopd, In population, a'rea, business, I* Just about 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.
