NEWS OF OAKLAND, BERKELEY, ALAMEDA, HAYWARD AND SAN LEANDRO CITY WILL SHARE RAILROAD INCOME Oakland to Derive Annual Rev enue From Proceeds o! Seventh Street Line Southern Pacific Accepts Mu nicipal Officials' Terms for Renewal of Franchise • • • •— . OAKLAXD, Dec. 2s.— By granting to the Southern- Pacific company its de sired renewed franchise for electric trains in Seventh street between Fallon and Bay, the city of Oakland will de rive immediately a substantial and constantly Increasing revenue from the income of the railroad. President B. H. Pendleton of the Oakland city coun cil has originated a plan, which he terms the Oakland plan, whereby the municipalitj-' Is assured of a reason able profit .for the use of the street during the life of the franchise and the payments into the city treasury can not be curtailed by expenses incident to maintenance and operation of the rail road tracks. The scheme has been ap proved by Mayor Frank- K. Mott, and by the mayor and Pendleton was taken to E. E. Calvin, general manager of the Southern Pacific, who ha 3 accepted the plan in full. A franchise ordinance embodying the terms has been drawn up by representatives of the city and of the Southern Pacific. PEVDLETOX EXPLAINS PLAN" Pendleton explained the working of the pian to the city council this even ing at the resumed hearing of the Southern Pacific company:s application for the renewal of the franchise. The revenue planned is in addition to the cost of paving Seventh street by the company, which is estimated at J200, 000. The negotiations which brought about the agreement, a revolutionary concordat in municipal franchise af fairs, have set a precedent of inesti mable value for this city, aconling to Pendleton. Just as Chicago derives its thousands of dollars a mile for' car lines operated on its streets under mu nicipal franchises, so will Oakland be gin to receive an income from a pub lic service corporation for a railroad line as soon as the franchise is granted. That means that hereafter adequate payment for the use of municipal high ways may be exacted with surety from a:i similar public service corporation?. Streetcar and railroad companies will pay for value received on every fran chise Oakland may grant. BASIS OF COMPUTATION In establishing the agreement be tween the city ffrnl the Southern Pa cific company, it was necessary « to make a basis of computation on the capital invested in the proposed im provement. This sum was fixed at about three-quarters of a -million. The Oakland plan stipulates: That the railroad shall receive in teroM at S per e*nl on the capital in vested: that the Southern Pacific shall nlso receive a sinking fund of 2 per cent on the Investment; s thai tiie rail road sbaU bold 70 per cent of the gross receipts for operation, jaxes and in cidental rxprnses; that the net income, or the amount remaining out of the gross intake, shall be shared by the city and th<- Southern PaciQo,. the city taking 35 per «^nt, and the Southern Pacific 65 por cent. The books of the company are to be subject to the inspection of the city auditor at all tim<=>s: the gross income may bo authoritatively determined by consuiting each year live sworn state ment'made scjni-annually. by the rail road. This statement is'filed with the interstate commerce commission. CITY HAS ADVANTAGE As Pendlelon explained to the city council tonight, the city In this plan has a decided advantage hi the definite percentage bring fixed for operation mihJ maintenance. Xot allowed at any time In the life of the. franchise, more than TO per cent annually of the gross amount collected, the company must bear out of this amount all improve meiits and betterments. The agreement will become imme diately effective. The company will make its first payment to the city July 1, 1911. When the Mcl rose extension is made, the city will derive its pro rata for all traffic on the whole Seventh street line. ACCEPTED BY RAILROAD Pendleton's statement set forth the following plan, which was accepted by the Southern Pacific: first — That the nilros*- should receive 5 p<»r cent interest on the capital invested.
