for whatever r may have done. There neverwas any charge of fraud against me abroadOr In this country· For some reason, whichI navf» never been able« to understand,, theEnglish Joekey Club stewards took away'myllcenso. Since then the Itelff boys, Lester andJohn were punished In a similar mann«,' «butnow they are ln «w«l standing, Unlike LesterRein*. I was, never ruled off NewmarketHeath."

' Results to' ¿JïeJ.ty.Mr. Trafford thus sums up the results

to the city from such a plant:"1. The city would obtain street ¡lights

of twenty-five per cent.'greater Illuminat¬ing power.i

"2. The city would obtain for Its waterdepartment pumping-capacity equivalentto the present old pump-house plant, andwith steam power reserve, without addl-tlonal cost. .·· i

"3. By utlllzlnB the' surplus electricpower the city would avoid the necessityof expending about $100,000, which willotherwise be required fot* pump-house' ex¬

tensions."4. Tho city may either maintain the

present rates for electric current or makea general .reduction of thirty per cent. Inthe cost of both street and commerciallighting and power service. In tho for¬mer case, the electric plant should earn

nearly $40,000 net annual revenue for thecity. In tho latter case,' the city and cit¬izens will save a like amount, or ln eventof the central stations meeting such re¬duction, the total saving to tho peoploof Richmond would bo not less than$75,000 per annum."Other advantages to be derived from

the establishment of the plant are:"The ability to transmit power easily

and cheaply to various »parts of the cityfor any special purpose whloh may arise,stich, for Instance, as the recent sug¬gestion of His Honor, tho Mayor, thatelectric power might prove a very valu¬able! means of protecting the city againstflro loss,"Security for the olty and oitlzons

against advance ln the present cost ofelectricity."Tho ability of the city to offer Induce¬

ments to manufacturers by furnishingcheap power, thus carrying Into effecttho Ideas which the Council of 1840 antic¬ipated."Employment for about twenty addi¬

tional men and Improved labor conditionsfor thoso now employed In the electricalIndustry."
