8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 1898 GRASPS THE THROATS OF COMPETITORS Work of San Fran- cisco Gas and Elec- tric Company. Striving to Retain Its Cinch ‘ On the Contract With the City. Supervisors clination to Give Its Rivals a Chance. CONSUMERS’ OPEN REVOLT | Vietims of Quick Consumption Meters and Exorbitant Rates Pre- paring for War. The San Francisco G and Electric Company is making desperate efforts to choke off all competitors for the con- tract for lighting public buildings and outside districts. The guarante: the Mutual—to perform the same jce at an annual saving to the city $40,000 has caused the g nation among the corporation, and every ene to pr nent from placing it TV of the big are bending their oppo- o1f y out the terms of the contract in ntee, which is undoubtedly made in good faith, also serves to show the taxpayers how a large amount of money has been drained from the treasury in the past that could have been saved had the former Board of Superv ple an s dealt honestly by the peo- a the field. The expostre in The Call of how the San F: cisco Com “cinching” the city tomer—by charging 11 cents per thou- sand watts, while certain favored pri- vate consumers were as low as 5% cents, and not content with this the company has dishonest me- ters, drawn larg never furnished, among all cla those who a indig the city natural which "Ye OLDE DUTCH FIREPLACE Show Little In- | | fast. held up they add their personal griev- ances, which are many. Since The Call first exposed the in- accuracies of-the watt meters those employed experts to test their meter, with the result that in almost every instance the meters have been found None of them have quite come up to the champion of the City Hall, with its record of 50 per cent fast, but they the sufferers to fizuring on how much been consumed. In consequence the office of the company is besieged with demands for rebates from all quarters. Then there is the further grievance over rates. Consumers who are paying 8 cents a thousand watts do not see why their neighbor on the same cir- cuit is only charged s or 6 cents, while those who pay 15 or 20 cents are protesting against such barefaced rob- bery. All these people are determinded to do what they can to put an end to the public job, even though they must re- main temporarily at the mercy of the corporation themselves, and with this determination they are turning to the Supervisors to see what steps, if any, will be taken to give rival companies a chance at the municipal contract. So far there is one indication at least of an inclination to do the right thing. To be sure, the proposal for bids has been prepared and approved by the | Street Lights Committee, and the pro- | posal is identically the same as that of | two vears ago, joker and all; but Chairman Rivers of the committee says that bids will be advertised for next | Company, from preparing itself t a rival company— | atest conster- | ; a position | lowed competition to enter | been I week. That is the one gleam of hope. Heretofore the publication of proposals for bids has been deferred until about before the expiration of the ing contract, and with the clause hibiting bid: upon contingencies cluded all possibility of any but the an Francisco Gas and Electric Com- pany, or predecessors, the #dison n- ter upon its obligations on time. Now, however, a full month will be given the companies, and one of them at I t can be fully prepared to begin its vice on time if awarded the contract. To be sure, much must be done in the | way of extending poles and wires to the outlying distri and so far the Su- pervisors have stoed in the way of this The Mutual Company, for s far back as lact January ion to erect poles and side the fire limits, but the matter was referred to committee and finally acted upon adversely. This tom- pany has its wires laid in underground conduits throughout the business por- tion of the city, but such a stem s very expensive and entirely impracti- cable in the residence d . The San Francisco Company has erected poles and wires wherever it has elect- ed to do so, in the downtown section, as well as the outlying districts, and the only authority it has ever been granted is that conferred by resolution No, 15,139, approved by the Board of Super- 26, 1881, granting the Cah- Light Company per- to erect and maintain poles nd upon the streets for the pur- f placingelectric light wires there- on, said poles to be planedand painted.” ex pro! fornia mission | who had not done so previously have | have shown speed enough to set | light they have paid for that has not | privilege enjoyed by the others, ana should it be necessary to take such action the company could, in short or- der, be in a position to fulfill its guar- $40,000 a year on public lighting. This is not the first time the Mutual Company has had to make a legal fight for its rights. In 1896 the Board of Su- pervisors instructed Superintendent of Streets Ashworth to prevent the com- pany from erecting poles around the Blythe property in order that it might carry out a contract with the lessees for lighting the premises. Application for an injunction restraining Ashworth from interfering was dismissed in the | Superior Court, and the matter was | carried to the Supreme Court. In an | opinion written by Justice Temple and | concurred in by Justices Hensha: | Macfarlane, overruling the decisi the lower court, it w stated that the opposition to the plaintiff was clearly | shown to emanate from the Edison | by the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company, and that Ashworth and cer- tain of the Supervisors had admitted | such to be the case. The opinion says in part: “That discrimination is unlaw- ful, and therefore the Board of Super- visors and the Superintendent act flle- gally when they order the arrest of plaintiff's employes for doing that | which is freely permitted to the rival and favored company.” give the rival company full authority to proceed with the extension of its so. | ""Meanwhile the blg company is prom- ised some distressing times with its patrons regarding its quick-consump- tion meters. « APPRECIATION WS SHOWY Levi Strauss Thanked Educational Advantages Given. for Twenty-Eight Students Met at His Residence and Pleasantly Passed the Evening. The residence of Levi Strauss, at 621 Leavenworth street, presented an ani- mated scene on the evening of Wednes- day. Twenty-elght students who been given educational advantages by Mr. Strauss met and surprised their bene- factor by presenting him wih a well worded resolution inclosed in a handsome album. Professor William Carey Jones, Mrs. Phebe Hearst and J. B. Reinstein were present at the time.

The severe westerly winds that blew | over the city yesterday will in all proba- bility be thé effect of causing a_general | rainfall along the coast. Acting Forecast Official McAdie claims that if the present condition of the atmosphere continues | the rain will undoubtedly fall within the | next twenty-four hours. | The wind swept over the city vesterday afternoon at the rate of thirty-six miles | an hour, and causing regular typhoons around the corners of large buildings. At Mount Tamalpais the velocity was regis- tered at thirty miles. | “Although it biew heavily along the | coast the winds were general throughout the entire State, being caused by a bank | | of high pressure existing inland.

William F. Holmes was a railroad em- | | ploye of the Southern Pacific Companr and while coupling ¢ tion, Oakland, he was crushed to death between two freightears. His widow, Lil- lian Holmes, brought an action for dam- | ages against the company, alleging that nd’s death was caused through negligence of the defendant. The, | latter denied being negligent, and as- serted that Holmes had been guilty of contributory negligence. The principal contention was upon the construction of the two cars and their couplings, which were of different standards. The widow won the suit in the lower court, but yi terday the judgment was reversed by the Supreme Court, which took the position that the switchman should have been familiar with the couplings of the cars he was to have joined, especially as the company’s rules insisted on his having that knowledge. —_—————————— Dilapidated Mail Matter. e Southern Pacific officlals of this have been for the last two days in | COD0O0CCOC000CO00CCO0CO0CCO0COCCOTCOOCOOCCOOCOCTOCOCCO0CO0COCOCCO0000CCOOCO000000 | Th i pt of some very dilapidated mail matter.

Then comes the serious business of the day. For there is ahalfhourdur- ing which the tormented, round red ball learns to sympathize with her brother, the pumpkin-shaped sphere that dreads Thanksgiving as much as the turkeys do. There's no nonsense about the way the Berkeley girls play basketball. They fly about the gymnasium with the recklessness of boys. They start after and seize the elusive ball as though there were nothing in the world of half so much value to them. And when a certain girl with a light brown braid hanging over one shoulder and another co-ed with a quantity of black wavy hair get hold of the ball at one and the same moment, they're like a pair of pugnacious chicks with but one worm between them; an indivisible worm, at that.

The coast defense steamers Montere= and Monadnock arrived from San Diege yesterday. Captain Whiting of the Mone adnock got a little scare making port. The war vessel was almost on top of the wreck of the Helen W. Almy before the lookout reported it. Then the engines were reversed and the big fighting ma- chine brought to a stop. In the mean- time signals were blown to the Monterey which was right astern, and that ves sel at once altered her course and cleared the wreck. The Monadnock got under v gain on a new course, and both hips came into port together. Cap-~ of the tain Whiting gives the location wreck as southe one-half south, siX and three-quarter miles form the whist- ling buoy. Since the battleship Oregon left for Callao there has been no war vessel in this port, so the two coast defense steam- ers were ordered to come here from San Diego. Lieutenant-Commander Adams of the Monterey has been ordered iSast, and his place will_be filled by one of the offi- cers now at Mare Island. At noon yes- terday the Monterey went to the navy vard, while the Monadnock is still at anchor off Folsom street. It is thought that as soon as the Monterey has been fitted out at Mare Isiand she will come down and_the Monadnock will take her place so that the harbor will not be left without one or the other of the steam- ers.
