If any more lights were to be put in it meant that they would have to com before the people and ask for an ex- tra city tax and the commissioners aid not feel like doing this. Under these circumstancs the policy had been adopted of laying all petitions on the table for future consideration. The alderman said that if the gas and electric commissioners would make a lower price to the city for the electric light they would be able to put more in, but there could be no more at the present price. Whenever the city sets a lower price, however, he said more lights would be put in. Mayor Murphy suggested that thé police commissioners might wait on the gas and electric commissioners to see what they could do about giving a lower rate for the rest of the year, but the alderman replied that the gas and electric commissioners were com- pelled by law to give the city its lights at cost and he did not see any use in waiting on them.
