POWER COMPANY WAKTS
TO BPRBAD
FIELD LIMITED AT PRESENT
it Want* tii<> Council to Give it
(lie KIrIiI to Erxtemd
Us Wires and
Pipe*.
The Manhattan Light, Heat and Power
Company of St. Paul Is now In the Reid
asking- tor a privilege which would Seem
to be i>t" material benefit to the company
anu residents of the city. The circum
stances which brought the new corpora
tion into, at present, partial competition
with the St. Paul Gas Light company are
as follows:
Five years ago in April the Manhattan
building, at Fifth and Robert street.-,
passed into the hands of Smhh .<: Taylor,
who have long boon Identified with real
estate Interests in St. Paul. At first, t>r
the accommodation of their own building,
the firm placed therein an electric light
plant of quite extensive proportions. Not
long afterwards they b.-gan accommodat
ing neighboring blocks across the streets
:iot only with light, but heat from the ex
hausi steam of the pant. To do this le
gally, however, it became necessary to s -
cure permission from,, the city council.
rk"ni^ limited franchise gave them the
privilege of supplying six blocks b tunded
by Third, Jackson, Sixth and Minneso
ta Streets.
Smith & Taylor then increased the ca
pacity of their plant to the extent of $ •">.
em or $40,000. This is now in operation and
giving the best of satisfaction to its
patrons.
Two months ago the Manhattan Light.
and Power company was Incorporated,
with a capita! of $1,000,000, with 1- 1.. C
Brooks as president and A. Wilford Zahn
manager. It was in the case of this appli
cation for incorporation that Attorney
General Douglas decided that the Man
hattan company was a manufacturing
concern. Application for a franchise giv
ing the new corporation the same privi
lege enjoyed by the Old company was
made to the city council. A resolution to
that effect was passed unanimously in
that branch of the municipal legislature.
The application is now pending in the as
sembly, and has been referred to the c >m
mittee on streets of that body.
Three hundred customers are now be
ing supplied by the new company. From
outside the district to which it is now
confined there are many applications for
!).),h light and heat. It is conceded by
many that within the narrow limits in
which the Manhattan Light, Heat and
Power company now operates light la fur
nished 7M per cent cheaper than it is by
the old company to consumers on the out
side- of these limits. It is due to the new
corporation to say that arc lights are new
furnished within the prescribed tenitory
of the Manhattan company by both con
cerns for $60.50 per annum. Outside of
these limitations the price is $142, and in
some sections of the city $14.") per annum.
It is at once apparent that the Manhattan
company can, unless it should be granted
equal terms with the older corporation, b3
forced out of the field entirely. It is quite
easy to reduce prices in a small section
of territory for a special purpose, and
when competition is done away with, ro-
Btore them again. When the Manhattan
concern entered the small Held againsr
the SI. Paul Gas Light company, all busi
ness houses in that section enjoyed the
benefit of its enterprise. It Is to extend
this benefit to the entire city that the
.Manhattan now asks the city council fjr
a franchise.
The company has recently added ma
terially to its plant in the way of new
machinery, including a large generator
and the finest switchboard this side of
Chicago. By disposing of its exhaust
steam the new company has been enab'ed
to reduce- prices for lighting. It has
supplied the neighbors in the six blocks
mentioned by simply crossing the streets
with conduits to the adjoining buildings
and from these to other blocks wi.hout
tearing up the streets longitudinally. It
dees not ask to do this in its application
for a franchise, where there is asphalt
pavement. It simply desires that no
more restraint be placed upon its oper
ations than Is now placed on that of its
competitor.
While the older corporation makes the
claim that by using water power from
Apple river it can reduce prices for light,
the Manhattan can meet all such compe
tition by the sale of its exhaust steam.
The company, in fact, was enabled the
first year of its operations to save more
than enough to its patrons to offset a
5 per cent gross Income tax.
So soon as the franchise is granted
nearly $50,000 will immediately be invested
in machinery necessary to increase the
capacity of the plant. Every business
house in the city can be accommodated
with light at the greatly reduced figures
charged by the Manhattan company. It
is, therefore, urged by advocates of the
new corporation, many of whom have
voluntarily petitioned the board of al
dermen and assembly to grant the fran
chise, that a great saving in the price of
illumination is offered by a thoroughly
reliable corporation, a home company
comprising home men whose interests are
and have been for many years in the
city of St. Paul.
On favorable action by the council work
will be commenced and completed within
six months' time. At present the com
pany is considerably hampered in its
work of extension, even In the prescibed
territory of six blocks. Before it cait
cross a street to perfect a connection U
is necessary for it to secure a permit
by resolution of the council and submit
plans and specifications for the approval
of the city enginpe'". Such restrictions
are not placed on the old company arid
the new one asks only for equal priv
ilege?.
In Minneapolis there is a new c >m
pany seeking the same privilege asked
by the Manhattan. It is the Interna
tional Electric company, with headquar
ters in the Lumber Exchange building.
Its opponent is the General Klec'ric com
pany, operated by water power from th
Mississippi river. And yet the new com
pany successfully competes with the old
one and has greatly reduced the cost of
illumination to the consumer.
The Manhattan was the first to Intro
duce in St. Paul the "enclosed type" of '
arc light, which burns 100 hours. The \
old company has adopted the idea and is i
now experimenting with it with i view i
of introducing it In city lighting. Tin
first one in use in S(. Paul was it
place of Adam Decker, on Jackson
street, and was placed there by the Man
hattan company and is a success. It i
can supply them whenever wanted if
granted the franchise prayed for. In the
Manhattan building the new company
will be centrally located and enabled to
reach all patrons in the city. It is not
an experiment, but has given universal
