Fifty Dollars a Day.
TWTnew pas retort at First an* Swan jstreets is yet uncompleted and because of this fact the contractors are forfeiting $50 a day. The work on the big tfwifc'ts being pushed as rapidly as possible find a man is being worked at every 4sp»^e where there is an tliinrr to do and ^rpoin to work at it. This is being done t\jri oi*c[er to bring the bier job to a finish ^.rid^f-tpp the penalty which has already ^jroven to over a thousand dolinrs.
When the contract was awarded it. was -iwthe agreement that the work was to -hft completed" by Nov. 15. and a penalty ,"»nf-fiTty. dollars a d-r was fixf'd for evev rtaj- beyond that time consumed in doirte the work. Tn order that the eon+factor should not. assume all the peril •j}' was stipulated that the rns comnany fo pay the contractor $50 a day for

The jwwifier has been favorahlf and the conhave worked faithfully, but much luck has been experienced and it was found lmnossiWp to finish the work -Jwfore the eynirntion of the specified Sf.iWte. Accordinsr to 1ho terms of the. ^PffCttr.ict the contractors will have for7eifed~$l .000 by tonight, and at best they flo not hope to have the iob completed hciorc. tlio ]." of the month, and it may ^require several days longer.

"Strictly adhered to will be not less than $1,500: This will serve to reduce the post of the tank but the company's manager* say that the amount will no more than reimburse them for being deprived of the, use of it. With their present •"capacity, it is practically impossible to give an acceptable light service, and the xCnnplaints have been numerous. With the new retort there will be a much arrcntfcr power and the strain on the prp^rit inadequate system will be relieved, much to the satisfaction of the eonijprnv 'a^id its thousands of patrons.
