10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, APRIL 17, 1898 LICHT MAY SO0N BE CHEAPER A Hard Battle Waged | Before the Super- | visors. Partial Victory Achieved for the Tax- payers. Competition for Lighting the Streets of the City Made Possib and not skirmish ye Supervisor: was gained for the people in the matter of electric Lights. The opposing forces consisted of the Mutual Electric Light | Company. with Supervisors Clinton, Dodge and Lackmann, on one side, and the San Francisco Gas and Electric Com- pany, with Supervisors Haskins, Delany, | Sheehan, Morton, Britt, Smith and Riv- | ers, on the other. The principal matter before them was sition of the Mutual Electric Light Company to furnish the city elec- tric lights at a saving of $40,000 per an- num on the present cost, and to save the | people of the city §100,000 a year, provided | they were allowed to erect -oles for the | stringing of their wires outside the fire | limt In this connection there was also | considered the p of the Merchants’ Assoclation for a new system of lighting | the streets by districts and for the sub- stitution of electric lights for gas lamp The great issue was the erectign of ad- oles by the Mutual” Electric | ‘ompany. Had this privilece been ed that company would have been d.in a position to compete with the | old company everywhere within the city | mits, to the great beneflt of every con- sumer of light, and particularly those who reside outside of the fire limits. But overy move in_the struggle showed ciat Mutual Comy and the people doomed to defeat. But the defeat irs to be only partial. W the privilege of erecting was not sranted, it was de- dvertise for bids for lighting . and this will give pmpany an _opportunity | adgi- peting to bid for the lighting within the fire | limits It _is believed that this is not the end of the battle, so far as the Mutual Com- pany is rned. It is understood that they will ask for a writ of mandamus | compelling_the board to grant them the | privilege of erecting poles’ wherever the want _within the city limits, on the ground that not to do so would be dis- criminating against em in v San Francisco Gas and Electric Light Company. Supervisor Clinton was called to the chair. Besides him there Wwere present Supervisors Hasking, Delan: Sheehan, Dodge, Lackmann, Morton, Britt, Smith and Rivers. P. B. Cornwall, president of the Mutual Electric LI%{ht Company, was granted the privilege of the floor. After re the city, he declared that all they asked to be able to make good their promise s the privilege of erecting light poles for stringing wires outside the fire limits. In reply to the question as to how many poles his company desired to put up, he | said they wanted to erect as many as would be needed to fill all applicantions lights that might be made to the v. He further declared that the cisco Gas and Electric Company s paying licenses on a few more than poles, but that a careful countshowed had nearer 10,000 poles of erecting poles in the outside districts, h ked, but every man, woman and » lived in those districts and also those who paid_taxes. These people ask to be furnished light at the same rate paid by those who live within the fire limits. “One-third of the month there is neither gas nor electric light in these sections,” he said, ‘‘and I believe that 100 electric lights on the streets would do more good in the way of protection to people and property out that way than as many policemen. other people enjoy. Supervisor Smith interrupted tosay that | nt conditions were not the fault | of this board, and that with the assist-| the pre: ance of the Merchants’ Awssociation it ex pected to provide plenty of light during | the coming year.

I had been doctoring with | several doctors and spent hundreds | of dollars, trying ything I thought would give me relief, but without success, till I began wear- ing the Belt you recommended.

T. SANDEN—Dear Si have proven the truth of the old lage, “It's never too late to mend,” for when I bought your Belt a year ago last June I was most miserable, suffering from Ipilepsy, Rheumatism, Varicocele and a general broken-down feeling. I could nct sleep nights and felt discouraged. I did not follow your directions, as I had no conveniences to carry them out, but I am thank- ful to say that your Belt has done all you claim for it and has cured me after all other remedies had failed. I now sieep well, my Rheumatism has entirely left me and my Varicocele is cured. Before wearing your Belt I would some- times go for three or four days and nights without sleeping a wink and become completely exhausted. After wearing your Belt two months I am, thanks to God and your won- derful appliance, an entirely new man. I feel twenty years younger and would not part with your Belt for a lot of money. I loaned my Belt to several friends and they all were benefited by the trial. I will any man who will prove one of They are from grateful men—men who are not afraid to let the world know that | cheerfully recommend your Belt to all sufferers and you can use my | name as reference.

It has done all you claimed for it, and much more than I ever hoped for. Beginning with the 10th of January, and for three weeks, I wore the Belt, following your directions and advice, and the benefit received from it was nothing short of a mir- acle. Palpitation of the heart all gone, digestive organs in good working order, muscles strong and firm, mind clear, memory good and a general all-round improvement. It has made a great change in me. Any one you wish to refer to me, either personally or by letter, I will gladly tell them the good the Belt has done me. Yours respectfully, J. D.

The average dif- ference, he added, is even greater than this in some kinds of lights. te assured the board that his company would be glad to be allowed to erect one-third the number of poles the Gas and Electric Company has outside the fire limits. In conclusion he said: ‘“We are prepared to give the citizens and the city better ac- commodations, better lights and lower | rates than they now enjoy.” | Chairman Clinton suggested that Mr. Cornwall give the number of poles and their location. Mr. Cornwall stated that these matters would be determined as the people made application for lights. He wanted the contracts for street lighting let in such | & way and at such time as would give | his company time to put up the necessary poles. At this point Supervisor Britt, Wwho throughout the session made wondertul and frequent exhibitions of his ignorance of parliamentary usages, sprang what he evidently thought was a trump card in the game of freezing out the Mutual Electric Company for the benefit of its rival. He called attention to the act passed by the last .egislature, which prohibited franchises being granted to any corporation for more than (wo years without first advertising for bids for the sale of such franchises. If this law ap- plied it would prevent the Mutual from entering into competition for the con- tract for lighting the streets, which must be awarded before the Ist of August of this year. The franchise would iirst have to be sold, and this would take consider- able time. In order that the Mutual may be able to come into competition with the Gas and Electric Company it must have at least three months’ time for the erec- tion of its poles and wires outside the | fire limi Mr. Cornwall declared that no other corporation had been limited to two or | even ten years, and added that po other | corporation had experienced th® same du.culty in securing a franchise that his | company had. Clerk "Rus: by Britt. T 1l read the act referred to| is provided that all fran- chises tor the use of public streets or h.ghways must be sold to the highest }uudm, and that bids must be advertised or., M. M. Estee, the attorney for the Mu- tual Electric Company, stated that he did not think the act constitutional, as it violated section article 11, and section 21, article 1, of the State constitution. He read these and also a recent decision of te Supreme Court, declaring that Board of Supervisors had no right to | re to grant to one corporation a priv- ilege which it had granted to some other. He then stated that if the Mutual wa: allowed to erect poles outside of the fir limits it would be in a position to save the city the sum of $10,000 and to the cit- izens of San Francisco the sum of $100,000 annually. We are furnishing to-day. “electric lights at a reduction of cent from the price that was charged by the other companies before we came into the market.” | Supervisor Dodge called attention to the fact that the Merchants' Association, which represented the best bus in the city, had made a formal reques to the board to see that competition was made possible when the next contract was let for lighung the city. At the present time, he said, Alamed ing $8 per month for what the residents | of this city were paying $16. He declared that all techni minor character should be s | | “I don’t think this board can afford to ignore this proposition,” he added. “It comes before us in too solid a form.

I move that It is the 2 of this board that in the considera- | question the to advertise for proposal that competition may be possi Supervisor Lackmann seconded the mo- tion. % | Supervisor Smith remarked that it was | a matter of erecting pole and not a | question of furnishing light, and declared that he would vote @ any plan to | allow the erection of poles but would | Vote for any measure compeliing corpora- tions to put thelr wires underground. Chairman Clinton said that the general | matter of electric lighting might be dis- | cussed and that the debate need not be | confined only to poles. Hiore CSupervisor Dodge explained that the object of his motion was simply to get at the intention of the board in rela- tion to competition. *I think the bills for lighting the City Hall are exorbitant, was his concluding shot. . A rollcall was demanded on Dodge's mo- | tion, and it was carried by a unanimous | | vote. | Y% R. Hewitt, superintendent of the police and fire alarm s stem, attempted against th shall be | « of thi; tion of date | to make an rgumen e erec- tion of additional ps but Dodge s ke his gun by callin -ption to the f: that the Bell Telephon® Company was putting up a large number of poles on Bush street. In the crossfire that fol- lowed between Dodge and Hewitt it de- that Hewitt had ordered these as he wanted on them. i Dodge claimed that the elty would string no more than two or three wires on | these poles, while the telephone company | would place 200 or 300 on them. He charged that favoritism was being shown to the telephone company, while the Mu- | tual was being discriminated against. | J. M. McDonald, of the City Improve- | ment Company, asked permission to erect | poles for electric lighting on Haight, De- | visadero, California and Fillmore streets, | and was instructed to make his applica- on i ng. “r)fldgu Thoved that the committee of the whole report in favor of the adoption of the resolution before them, thet is, to ad-’ vertise for bids immediately, and that the bids be so prepared as to allow of ompetition. NP, "Baidwin, vice-president of the pciation, said that his as- sociation was opposed to poles in the streets, but that the erection of addi- tional poles were necessary In this case to permit of competition. Notwithstanding that Dodge’s motion d not been disposed of, Smith moved se of the board t Merchants' Asso 55 streets, Golden Gate avenue, Folsom street and Van Ness avenue be lighted by electric light instead of by gas, and that the lights be burned every night in_the year. This was carried® without a dissenting vote. Dodge moved that proposals be asked for by the board for lighting the city by districts, as outlined by the Merchants Association, and that the Street Light Committee be instructgd to immediately prepare specification Smith offered an amendment providing that no additional poles should be erected in this connection. Dodge accepted the amendment, saying that he would con- sider the vote taken on the amended mo- tion as a test of how the Supervisors stood on this important question. Considerable _discussion followed, and resulted in Smith withdrawing his amendment. Then an effort was made to have actlon postponed, but without suc- ce Smith again offered his amendment, and it was adopted by the following vote: Ayes—Haskins, Delany, Sheehan, Mor- ton, Britt, Smith, Rivers. Total, T. Noes—Dodge, Lackmann, Clinton. Total, A. S Merchant: | that it be the se 1 by th Dodge’'s motion, thus amended, was carried. The committee of the whole resolved itself into the Board of Supervisors., Su- pervisor Haskins taking the chalir. Chair- man Clinton of the committee of the whole reported the two motions made by Dodge and which had been adopted in committee, and his report was adopted. By an oversight the motion made by Smith, and which had also been adopted in committee, was not reported to the board. Adjournment was taken until Monday at 2 p. m. —————————— FAIRLY GOOD WORK AT INGLESIDE. The coursing at Ingleside Park yester- day was fairly good, and when the short enders won in many instances those who had overlooked form were in pocket. A few good, strong short enders carried away the money, and it is predicted that to-morrow the long enders will be in clover. In one or two courses the judg- ing was found fault with, but as a rule the decisions were not objected to. The hares ran well and the dogs which were slipped proved to be unusually fast. Van Knapp was the surprise of the day when he easily downed Alma in a hard, long, well-fought course, and in conse- quence some money poured into the long odds book for the final on the surprise. The betting is strong in the final book. veloped poles put up on the understanding that | he was to be allowed to string such wires | and Firenza, Gladiator, Pet Kirby, Moun- taln Beauty and Little Dell will get the bulk of the money on the play. It s thought by many that a rank out- sider may carry away the money, but the knowirg ones " say that there are but two or three in the final race. A large Saturday crowd had gathered, and it was tegretted by the management that more pool boxes were not in running order, as those which were in operation could hardly carry the money played into them. Ned Harrigan, the well-known actor, and Frank McComb of Meuntain View were among those present. A strong play will possibly be made on Koo Lawn to win the purse, but the old timers say there is but one thing in the run, and that is named Gladiator, owned by the well- known coursing man and judge, J. Dean. The run-down was as follows: D. L. Desimone’s Buckwa beat Batt & Frank's Count of Monte Cristo; P. Brophy' Benicla Boy beat E. J. Heeney's Moore's Pro- scription; D. Roche's Gold Dust beat S.
