LEADERS

(Continued From Page One.) hnd that the nomination should follow the adoption of the platform tomorrow but even while the committee was making up Its mind that this should be the program, the big party leaders were in session at their hotel with Secretary of the Navy Daniels and decided that the demands of the delegates for a hurrying up of the proceedings must be met. In consequence they sent word to the rules committee that the precedent established in Baltimore four years ago must be followed and the nominations precede the adoption of the platform. After the situation had been explained by J. Root Kramer, secretary of the convention who was directed to present the position of the leaders to the committee, it was decided to change its plan and follow the advise of the leaders.

!n the brief submitted by the com

pany to the commission several weeks ago a present value of $770,649 was claimed. - The present value of a utility is the basis used for the establishment of

rates. As shown by the above, figures the state engineer's estimate of present value of the local gas company's holdings is-$366,484 less than the company's estimate. Makes Big. Reduction. The state engineers in their report establish $512,840 as ' the cost of reproducing the property of the local utility. The company claimed $849,011 as the cost of reproduction, or $336,171 less than the valuation established by the commission's experts. "The city will quite probably oppose the valuation of the company's artificial gas plant being considered as a part of the valuation for rate-making purposes on the ground that it is not used and useful in the distribution of natural gas," President Bavis of the board of public works said today, t "In the report of the commission engineers the valuation of the artificlal gas plant is fixed at $83,821 and figures as an item in establishing their present value of the company's holdings," Mr. Bavis continued. ." Should we be sustained in this contention, this item of $83,821 would be subtracted from the $408,165 present value established, leaving, to be considered for rate making purposes, a present value of $324,344. .

NEW MADISON O.. June 15. Mrs. Harry Lucas was severely burned about the face and arms Tuesday evening at her home " while basins bread

on a gas Btove. She opened the door of the oven and found the inside all fn flames, which, leaned out. envelop

ing her head and shoulders. Before !

opening the stove she removed her S

one-year-oia babe from the floor in front of the stove, and this timplv act I

no doubt saved the little one from be-

mecaugnt by the flames. Mrs. Lucas

rushed to the porch where she fainted. She was at once discovered hv nei?.

bors, who rushed to her assistance.

wnue tne burns are very severe it is not thought by her physician that any

permanent aisnguration will result.

revenue of $29,191 nine percent of $324,344. "The company's report shows its earnings for last year were $11,000, so a five cent Increase in rates would yield and additional revenue of $16,200, or practically the revenue of the company would be entitled to on a present value of $324,344. The company, it will be remembered, asked for a thirty cent rate increase. Means Small Increase. ; "In the event the value of the artificial gas plant was figured in as an item of the valuation for rate making purpose, a ten cent increase in rates would provide the additional revenue the company would be entitled to, which would be twenty cents less than

the company has petitioned for."

If the commission accepts the fig

ures of its engineers, which it does in practically every case, gas rates in Richmond will be increased . to not more than a maximum of 50 cents and probably the maximum will not be to

exceed 45 cents. The present maximum rate is 40 cents.- The company

petitioned for a 70 cent maximum.
