THE BEE: GAS COMPANY PLAYING SAFE Effort to Forestall Payment of Dam- ages to Asphalt Company. TESTS OF MAINS BEING MADE| emce of Last Year, Gas Disintegrated As- , Leads Gas People to Take Precautio An Exp: Leaking » Employes of, the Omahu Gas company aro horing Holgs fp the pavement on Eigh- teenth stfeet, West ot the city hall, which s hard Wgrk for fhe men engaged. The tale attached thereto is that the United | Gas company, which controls the Omaha | and’ othen companies, finds itself up against | a serlpus sitaation. Last year 400 gr 600 yards of asphalt pavement © fn the' south part of town buckled up’and ruined a section of street. | The trouble was ,Gaused by leaking gas. | As the Barber Asphait company had guar- | anteed that partisular piece of work, it | was cailed on by the city to make good. | The damage was, repaired and then the asphalt company handed the bill to the | gas company. The understanding Is that | the latter company did pay the bill | Early in the winter a team and wagon | loaded with coal became stalled at north end of the city hall through a cave- in of the pavement, as alleged. Then It | was reckoned that leaking gas was disin- | tegrating the asphalt covering of thé street and nothing will have that effect quicker | than gas: So, as A precautionary measure, the gas company Is testing its pipes wher- | ever susplelon attaches In order to avold the payment of any more large bills for repairs. In recent years engineers have become wise to the dibustrous effect of leaking gas on the asphalt pavements and Omaha is | not the only ity where extreme care is now being taken by the gas corporation to protect ita Pipes and head off ieaks that | may be very costly.
