The Board of Supervisors held a very lively sesslon yesterday when the ques- tion of water rates came up for consider- ation, but did not arrive at any conclu- sion on the vexed question. Mayor Schmitz presented a message on the cub- ject and Supervisor Connor submitted a minority report, both of which documents contained a recommendation that a ma- terial cut be made in the income of the Spring Valley Company, which’ the ma- Jjority report fixed at about $1,967,291 14, on an estimated value of $25,790,700. basis the rates woula be left as they are at the present time and give the com- pany & 50 per hydrant each month, to the extent of $120,000. The session was provocative of consid- erable display of temper from both atlons that the political d to by ambitious ly made. The ma- was Jed by Supervisors Comte and prandenstein, while the minority had for leaders Supcrvisors Braunhart and Con- nor, both of whom appeared to be much hurt that their colleagues had not fallen 3 over themselves to arrive at the minors ity's way of thinking.

Brandenstein objected to the reading, claiming that the commu- nication should go to the committce of the whole, “Without deprecating your inter tion,” sald Brandenstein to the Mayor, “I | call’ your attention to the constitution, which places the duty of fixing water rates on the Supervisors alone." The Mayor asserted that he had a right | to be heard, and Braunhart produced the charter to show that his Honor was cor- rect in his assumption. Braunhart heat. cdly called attentlon to the fac’ that the Mayor would have the right to veto the item for hydrants in the next budget, “The nrmnnd ordinance gives the com- pany $140,000 for hydrants and an ad3i- tional {ncome of more than $190,000," sald Braunhart. Brandenstein urged Braunhart to stick to the facts and referred to the latter's “frenzy of eloquence and oratorical tur- moll," which he sald was done for politi- cal effect, Brandenstein sald that the {s- sue was magnified and there was no rea- son for the bitterness which character- ized the proceedings. Mayor Eliminates Franchise Value. The Mayor's message was then read on Comte's motion and afterward referred to the committee of the whole. In his report the Mayor eliminated entirely the value of the company's franchise in fix- ing a valuation, claiming that it does not represent an investment of the company's funds and has been the result of no out- lay or expenditure. The report continues: Looking at the varfous valuations fairly, think the estimate of the majority $25,700,700 tao high by $250,000, and in no avent hould it exceed $ ,000, Five per cent Is conceded as a falr rate' of interest per annum, thus amounting to §1,275.000. The amount of taxes to be paid by the company the coming year Is a fixed charge of $210, For the operating expenses the majority com- mittes has allowed 467,000, while the minority recommends $450,000, both of which estimates 1 consider excessive. With the abundant rain- fall of the past few days the peninsular reser veirs are AIling up and the charges for pump- ing water will be materially reduced. Taking into account that the company may supply fteelt_with cheaper fuel and power, I take it that $450,000 would amply suffice for the com- pany's operating expenses. Urges Lower Hydrant Rate. 1 belleve the hydrant rate of $2 50 entirely too high and recommend strongly that it be fixed at not to exceed $2 per month for each hydrant, or $06,000 for the year, thus making the company's revenue approximately $1,015,- 766, 1 report’ at I belleve 1f water rates shall be fixed upon the basis herein suggested they will be faiv to the city and to the public, and 1 further helleve that they will not impose any hardship on the company, or be found at all unfair to it 1 ‘'would suggest to the company, at all events, that It showld meet more liberally the demands of the oity for the extension of its pipes and mains for hydrant service, and for the placing of the hydrants required for five protection, If it wishes to retaln the good will of the munieipality, and that It should deal in this regard falrly by the eity if It expects to vecelve the falr treatment for which it Is von- santly appesling, Connor Apologizes to Board, Connor tried to pour ofl on the troubled waters by apologising for having recently gald that the Mupervisors would be “wiilpped into line” te vete for lower rates, quit making Comte s hlfi gosted that the members feal speeches, saying he referred partieularly to Hraunhart, who rm‘ to n auestion of privilege and in a engthy harangue denled that he fs a pol T(Irlnn. ‘"These references to pledges and what the people expect,” sald Comte, “are in the nature of political addresses, We have fixed rates on what we consider a fair value, It requires more moral courage to do justice to n vnrgnrmlnn than to ats tack it, We have added to the value the sum of $3,200,000 for the Alameda system.' Braunhart's resolution requesting the Bpring Valley Water Company to inform the board whether it will rerew its offer made last, vear to expend the sum of $465,000 before June 30, 1908, in ihe laying of mains of increased size to afford ample fire protection was also referred to the committee of the whole. which will meet on Triday afternoon at 2 o'clock, when an effort will be made to adopt the water rates.
