NOW COMES THE ELECTRIC LIGHTSA Cat la Rates to fee Made on ttela, candescent Ughta.

Irumor is current that the electric light company is about to make a corresponding cut in prices to that recently made by the gas company. It is said the rate which is now $150 per month per light, will be reduced to such a figure as to bring them into hot competition gpith the gas companies. A News representative saw Martin Dial, superintendent of the coal gas company, at his office on Ohio street this morning. When iis mission was stated, that gentleman made the following statement: "Well, sir, I do not care, for my part, if the electric light mpany gives away their light As to a cut in rates, I don't know anything of it" *"v "What effect would such a cut have upon the gas company." "None whatever, but then I don't care to talk to you you folks aren't stuck on us, are you? That's all I have to say to you. But the fact is I don't know anything about it."

Mr. Clemens^assistant superintendent of the Citizens Fuel Gas Company was present When the Nxwb man called at the office on south Sixth street, and he was busy with orders. "Have you heard of an intended cut by the electric light company?'^ was the reporter's salutation. "No, I haven't but I would not be surprised to hear it They can't hardly afford to keep up their step-ladder rate under their present condition of things.'' "Would such a cut affect you?" "Not in the least To be plain, we do not consider the light company as a competitor at all. The only place where we meet at all is in business houses on Main street and stores scattered all over the city. No, it could not affect our coinpany in the least," "What do you think of the present gas war? Will it last?" "Well, that remains to be seen of course. But you can say that we are not in the rate war. We go on just as before and are making money. We have more orders now than we-can fill. So what more can we want We have come to stay and will be here next year, at the same rates. What the other company will do, as I said before, remains to be seen.

Secretary Ellis, of the electric light company,'was seen at his office at the works. "Does your company intend making a cut in rates?" was the query put to that gentleman. "Not that I know of," was his simple answer. "Do you think you would better the condition of things by so doing?" "Well, I can't say. That subject is a tender one to me. 1 have nothing to say to you just at present, but later on I will. I do not say that there will be no cut, but simply that I have notbing to say to the public now."

All these things taken together it seems that we are to have a little longer extension of our light problem. The merry war will go on for some time to come and the majoritv of citizens will not object, no matter how cheap these various lights become. Terre Haute seems to have the cheapest tuel and light of any city in the country.
