CITY OWNERSHIP FAILS Boston, Dec. IS. An inquiry, profitable to every city in this country where the citizens have any notion of acquiring a municipal lighting plant, has been completed by the special committee of the Board of Aldermen of Worcester, appointed to inquire into the feasibility and propriety of that city obtaining a municipal electric lighting plant. Their conclusions, which were overwhelmingly against it, were based entirely upon financial considerations, for it was found that the cost of light from a municipal plant would be greatly in excess of the contract price paid to the private corporation furnishing it. No account tras taken of the evils of political domination of municipal plants, or of the fact that appointments to municipal positions made possible by municipal plants are seldom based npon the efficiency of the appointee or his training for the work.

It was found after a thorough and painstaking investigation that the average cost in prosperous cities, outside Massachusetts, for the operation of their municipal electric lighting plants is 3.4 cents per lamp hour, while Worcester pays to the private corporation 2.8 cents. The cost to the cities In the State, owning their own plants is 4.34 cents per lamp hour for 300 watt lamps and would, for 500 watt lamps such as are used in "Worcester, be 4.54 per lamp hour or nearly double what Worcester pays. Taunton, after spending $251, 000 on its plant, and now requiring $50,000 more for improvements, furnishes light at an operating cost of 2. 85 cents per lamp hour, while the in terest on the cost of the plant increases The case of Robert D. Kinney against this price to 3.00 cents per hour.

Justice Mitchell, of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, for $50,000 damages. was thrown out by the United States Supreme Court. George Burnham. counsel for the Mutual Reserve Life Insurance Company, was sentenced in New York to two years' imprisonment. General Ballington Booth denied the reports of a reconciliation with his father.

General William Booth, and a prospective amalgamation of the two Salvation Armies. Officials of the New York and Mutual Life Insurance Companies assured Commissioner Folk, of Tennessee, that all Hums expended by the companies for election expenses had been repaid. The railroads of the Nerthwest made very effort to relieve the fuel famine, but the situation was reported serious because of the increasing cold. The Government inquiry into the reported ar shortage was begun at Minneapolis. Chancellor Day, of Syracuse University, in a magazine article, denounced the move for legislative control of aggregated wealth, and stoutly defended the creators of huge fortunes.

Thirty thousand cotton mill operatives in New England received an advance in pay or promise of one. Commander Peary is to make another attempt to reach the North Pole, according to his friends. He will not lead the "dash," but direct it from winter quarters. The Life Insurance elections will be held in New York to day, but two or three months will be required to count the ballots. The Art Students' League of New York inaugurated a movement to have the charter of Anthony Comstock's Anti Vice repealed.

CAPITAL JNSURANCE The Board of Public Grounds and Buildings, at a meeting thisafternoon, has under consideration the question of placing insurance on the new State Boston, after an extended investiga tion, decided not to operate its own municipal plant as the cost of light secured in that manner would be much in excess of the price paid to the private corporation of between 30 and 35 cents a night per lamp, according to the number used. Brookline, also decided that the price it paid. 35 cents a night per lamp, was considerably less than it could get the same kind of service for if it owned its own plant. Springfield, renewed its contract with a private corporation after a thorough investigation of the municipal ownership question. Hudson.

acquired a plant of its own and now pays three times as much per lamp hour, for its lights as Worcester pays. Wakefield, which formerly paid a private corporation $75 a lamp per year can make light at an optrating expense of $74.69 per year, but it must pay the interest on the cost of its plant, $180,000, and it loses the interest which the private corporation paid on each lamp, $12.14 a year, so that its actual cost per lamp each year, exclusive of the interest on the cost of the plant, is now SB8.82. The Board of Aldermen, after investigation has found as follows: "The cost of the street lighting service in the event of the city acquiring the plant will be increased from $79. 000 to $118,000 per year for the electric lights alone; the cost of the arcs will advance from $109.50 to $168 per lamp per year, and from 2.8 cents to 4.95 cents per lamp per hour. "No reference is made in the foregoing calculation to the taxes now paid by tho company into the citv, adding not loss than n.oih per year to the deficit already noted."

QUERIES FOR SANDERSON Continued from first page.

Architect Joseph M. Huston and indorsed by the contractor. A month later another payment of $75,000 was made "for work done on material, fittings and furnishings of the new State Capitol." To insure the State against loss from, making these irregular advances, the contractor was placed under bond. Mr. Berry's There was little surprise on the Hill yesterday when it was announced by Treasurer Berry that he had written to Attorney General Carson that, unless instructed to do so bv the Legislature, he would not pay bills rendered for furniture and decorations in the new State Capitol, to the amount of $108.

879. 78, and a bill of Architect Joseph M. Huston, for professional services, of $50,000. The Sanderson items are as follows: "Chairs, desks, rails, seats, marble seats and fire sets," "curtains," $30, 220.31; "rugs," "Mural art paintings." "English laid interlocking parquetry flooring," "decorating and painting." $10,000.25. The letter says these bills "have been presented to the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings, and by John H.

Sanderson." and "are certified as correct by J. M. Huston, architect," but that he declines to pay them "on the ground that the lack of proportion between prices and measurements convinces me that the prices have been arbitrarily set, without regard to measuremen, confirming my previous conclusions as to the irregular, indefinite and possibly crooked character of the specifications under wnicn tne contracts were let, and which rendered competitive bidding impossible." Berry gives as his reason for refusing to pay Architect Huston's bill of $50,000, on account of "making plans and specifications, superintendence, for interior fittings and furnishings" on a four per cent, commission basis, "that the commission is estimated on a fictitious valuation of the work." add ing, "I that the architect has aireaay receivea aoout more than a fair valuation of the work yield at 4 per cent." In conclusion Berry says: "The Legislature will meet in a short time, and I will await its instructions." nnd Fnlnx Trial bot Railroad News CENTRAL FLY! DESTROYED Cam Were Burned itnd.IInt One Won Fntnlly Injured. Tho New York Central, just to keep even with the Pennsy, had a flyer wrecked yesterday. The New York Central train known as the "Buffalo local," a fast train running between New York and Buffalo, was wrecked about a mile east or Pat CHOOSE FROM THESE Men's Stylish Suits and Overcoats Hats and Shoes the tracks.

A' local freight was taking water at the pumping station when another freight on the same track ran into the rear of the first, knocking the caboose and a coal car over on the passenger track. Before the "Buffalo "local," then due, could be flagged, it came in sight, with two engines, making up lost time. The heavy coal ear threw both engines off the track and down an embankment. All in the passenger cars, which remained on the tracks, were badly shaken up but none was seriously Injured. Engineer Harris, of Rochester, in the first engine, who by sticking to his post probably saved many lives, was dug out from under the wreckage terribly injured.

EXTRA TRAIS FOR HOLIDAYS. Yesterday the Pennsy announced a number, of extra trains which will be run until after the holidays to accommodate the passengers and express rush. Trains Nos. 32, 34, 1 and 31 will be made up of two sections, and in a day or two Nos. 37 and 30 will be run the same way.

All the express business will be transferred from the regular to the extra trains, thus enabling the regular trains to make better time; at all events to prevent the delay with express at the small stations along the road. Yesterday morning four sections of No. 2 were run east. This was made necessary owing to the fact that one of the trains was carrying No. 8's Fort Wayne connections, wTuch were delayed by the wreck to the flyer at Canton on Sunday.
