The Commis- sioners of Public Works and the heads of | their several branches were present and explained the items contained in their re- | quests_for the amounts necessary to run their departments during the next fiscal | | year. | The proceedings were enlivened by a | wordy tilt between Supervisors Branden- | stein and Braunhart, which looked very serious for a while. Braunhart, though not a member of the committee, was allowed to put some ques- tions to the officials of the Department of Works, but he had not proceeded far when he was sharply called to order by | Chairman Brandenstein. “Confine yourself to the subject mat- ter,” sald Brandenstein to Braunhart. Braunhart took exception to Branden- stein’s order. The remarks passed by the two Supervisors became rather un- parliamentary and Sergeant at Arms An- derson looked uneasy. Brandenstein in- timated that Braunhart's presence was not desired. The latter quickly subsided and the incident ended. |~ Chairman Brandenstein asked Commis- sioner Manson if it would not effect a saving if the Bureau of Architecture and the Bureau of Building were consolidated and Commissioner Manson replied in the negative. Brandenstein also desired to | know if the board found it necessary to have ite system of bureaus, and Secretary i Park_explained that the charter gave the ower to establish departments, Which had been designated as bureaus for convenience. To a question as to what proportion of salarles was pald to the amount of work accomplished, Gity Engi- | neer Grunsky replied that it would be dif- | ficult to say, as the results were not al- ways visible in the material form. Much | of the expense was for supervision of work which is absolutely necessary, Grunsky sald. In the matter of street work the follow- ing sums had been expended up to April 1 of this year: Salaries, $88.253 15; wages, teoming, $26,480: repairs, $30S8 40; $22.718; horse hire, $2030; contract { Incidentale, §2532. When the item increasing Superinten- dent of Streets Heath's salary from $200 to $250 per month was reached. Brandenstein again incuired whether it would not be well to combine some of the bureaus, but Manson again thought otherwise. The in- vestigation will be resumed next week. ‘board $87,354 83; aterial, . $134,919; Berkeley Clerk Insolvent. Thomas 1.

SAN JOSE, April 19.—This city is to be made the distributing center of electric the United Gas and Electric Company, a cor poration recently organized in San Fran cisco, with a capital of. $2,500,000. This concern has prociired options “on the plants of the Electric Improvement Com- pany and the Light and Power Compan the electric and gas companies of this city, and thelr sale is a certainty. Nearly $1,000,000 is involved, about $600,000 of which will go to the Electric Improvement Com- pany. Each of these concerns is incorporated at $1,000,000. The Light and Power Com- pany is an old corporation, while its rival, which has absorbed the major portion of the business, ‘has been operating but twelve years. The Electric Improvement Company is the agent for the Standard Electric Company and handles its power. By purchasing it the new owners will come into contracts with all the electric railway companies for supplying power, together with a raflway to Campbell and much business from pumping plants. The wires of the Standard Company from Blue Lakes come to San Jose and | the city will be made a distributing point for the counties south and west of here. A line is to be built to Gilroy at once and the electric power will then be extended to Santa Cruz and Monterey. The United Gas and Electric Company” directors are: C. E. Green, W. Gregg Jr., C. H. Pennoyer, C. O. Poole and J. E. Green. They are the capitalists who com- prise the Peninsula Lighting Company, and with the vassing of the San Jose plants into their hands they will own every plant on the west side of the bav between this city and San Francisco, ex- cept at Santa Clara, where the lighting plant is owned by the town.
