In conference with Mayor G. A. Quigley officials of the Connecticut Light and Power company have ad- mitted that the proposed changes in lighting rates were drawn up for a two-fold purpose and while one of the benefits to be obtained through the new system will be the equalizing of rates for consumers, the main pur- pose is to make popular the use of electricity. The lighting company of- ficials explain that their plant was constructed at great expense and maintained by the expenditure of large sums of money. Although it is necessary to keep the workmen on | duty tive small amount of used at any time other the hours of 5 evening. Plan is An Experiment. By the new plan, which is in the form of 'an experiment, the electric lighting company believes the use of their product will be encouraged and many of the labor saving devices, such as washing machines, toasters, electric heaters, etc., will be installed in homes. These devices will cause the plant to be operating 24 hours a day instead of but a small portion of the time and this, the officials admit, is the desired end. Quigley Opposes Plans. Mayor Quigley says he opposes the rates on the ground that it is an im- | position upon the public to charge for the light the company might give if ¢ it was the desire of the public to use ' It is his intention to con- tinue to wage opposition to the rates and if the company cannot see its way to draw up a schedule of an- other kind or leave the rates as they | formerly stood, he will bring the matter to the common council for ac- tion. Tn ths event of that body see- ing Gt to offer resistance to the chdrges, a hearing before the public, utilities commission will be sought by the city. The city's chief ' executive explains that as the lighting company electricity is than between and 9 o'clock each 1 sought and was given power to build and operate a lighting system'in this city, that company is compelled to | light the city or give up its franchise and it is within the powers of the will buy and how ‘they will buy it.

Few of the thousands of passengers arriving here daily from abroad are coming to this country unless the: have been here before or unless rela tives are already here. Probably 50 per cent. of the recent arrivals are re- servists, mostly Italians, who left the United States to fight for the native land. Many of them are American ! is no question. The balance of the ar- rivals is composed largely of fathers, mothers, wives and children of men, Poles and Czecho-Slovaks, wha immi- grated prior to the war and are now well established. The arrivals include a large repre- sentation of who have been unable to reach theso shores earlier because of war ledl- tiar Some of them are from G many. that many arrivals have steamship tickets sold to them abroad four or five years ago. BENCH WARRANT Lxtradition of Alleged Murderer Will Now Begin—Man Probably Will 3¢ Tried in Harttord. Hartford, Dec. 80.—A bench war- rant for the arrest of Luman C.

This, however, what is to 'be chargea for, he say the electric lighting company is lowed to impose such a charge the mayor can see no reason why the ew Britain Gas Light company can- not take just such steps and offer the same reason for such a move. To stretch the point a bit further, mayor points out that oil lamps are still used to a certain extent in some homes and it is not beyond the power of the Standard Oil Co., under this same scheme to make charge.” If al- a Must Be Shown. As explained by the “consumer charge” of month for each meter pose of paying the expenses of read- | ing and testing meters and bookkeep- | ing in the local office there are 8,000 meters, as the officials estimate, in the city, this would bring a revenue of $4,000 each month and Mayor Quigley must be convinced ,he officials, 50 cents the amount to run that branch company’s plant. The rates for actual consumption of light has been reduced from 11 cents per kilowatt hour to 5 cents per of the kilowatt hour, making it possible and attractive for consumers to use more than twice as much power as hereto- for The other charges, however, ! continue to mount up and while the company is trying ifs experiment the public is paying dearly, hence his ob- jections, Mayor Quigley say.
