sieting of a wife and seven eblidren , two of

The heads of familIes In Omaha who rc
gard the monthly gas bIlls as a burden wIl
have occasion for self.coniuratuintion who
they recelvo their April statements.
The Omaha Gas Manufactnirlng comnpan
has riecitled on a 25 vcr cert reductIon i :
tiio price of gas to all consumers. It is not

May 1 wIll be computch en the basis of tin
reduction. The iirosent rate Is $1.70 per 1,00
feet , wIth 10 cents oft for cash. The net
price Is $1.45 , with tirci caine discount , whtc ]
niakcs the net price to the conounoer i.3
per 1,000 feet ,
President Frank Murphy of the gas corn
pany calls attention to ( lie fact that thi
reduction is purely voluntary on ( lie par
of the company. Tire tclsthig ordinance pro
vides tat the company tony charge $1.60 pe
1,000 feeL until the conetmmilption of gas. cx
ceeds 200,00U,000 feet annually. Although ( ii
Present consumption falls simort of this html
by nearly 40,000,000 feet , the. company lie
decided to melee a radIcal cut at thh time
makIng the cost of all gas the lImIt Indicate ,
by the ordinance for fuel gas , winch Is $1.35
Wlilio there rice one or ttt large clUe :
whtre the price of gas Irt as low as $1 or
account ofactive competition , tire reduction :
that have beeii effected during the existencu
of the Omaha company are better apprecIator
by hooking at the prices whIch the prevlou :
generation vas cornpelioil to pay. In 186 :
the price of gas in Orriaha was $5 per 1tl3l
feet. Ill 1877 it was reduced to $3 , where I
rcnialncd tmntll 1883 , Whre It war. , rlecreaer
to $2.50. Three or four years after the extru
iralf-rioilar was knocked oft arid the prici
rcmnalnetl at . $2 until the $130 rate went int
effect.
TuB FIRST FRANCHISE.
The Omaha Gao Manurtucturing companl
vae organIed In 1867 nod received a twenty
five-year franchise fron the , city ; subject t
such reasonable restrictIons as might ho tm
posed as the cost of nirtiufacture becaini
cheapeiied. This fraiichi're was praitlcalll
exclusive in its nature. The L'ate constitu
tion knocked out the monopoly by the pro
vision that no exclueve fruunchlsea rultoulti b
granted in the streets of any city In Nebraska
braska , and for sonic years repeated attenipti
were made by outside capitalists to breal
into tile field previously enjoyed ox
elusively by thro local concern. Tin
United Gas Improvement company , which
was composed of Philadelphia capitalists
entered the arena In 1883 , and finaill
eacured a thirty-year franchise. Thu
was rctrictcd , however , by the corrditionr
that the maximum prieo to consumers sitonit
not eicceed $2 , rind that gat for all publk
buIldIngs , including school houses , aimould he
furnIshed at $1.25 per 1 000 feet. It war
also provided that thio city mIght purchiasc
( ho plant at any time after the expiration ol
fifteen Years.
The local conr.pany macIc euch a determined
fight against the neW concnm that th Phil
adeiphia people finally agreed to a cornS
promise , by which they purhaseJ a large
amount of thin stock of the local company
at a liberal price. Tire result was that the
thirty-year franchise was never accepted and
thto gas buelnesa of the cIty rcmainz under
( lie nominal control of the local organization
to this day.
The Nebraska and Kansas Gas arnilleat-
ing company obtained a franchica in Omaha
in 1887. but lcwao so hedged about by re
etrictions that ft ivaa' never accepted. Tire
council made It bligatory on the newborn -
pany to furnish gas to private conurners
for illuminating purposes for $1.25 , and to
the city for $1 , while tlio maximum price of
fuel gas was fixed at 75 cents.
CONSUMPTION OF GAS. '
The Nebraska Gas Fuel' ' company obtaIned
a forty-year franchise In 1888 , but. as the
company was unwilling to make any guar-
airtees there were never any practical results.
The twenty-five year franchise of the
Oriiaha Gas Manufacturing company cxpiret
in 1803 , but the company continued to fur.
nisir gao at the old prhccm for severalmontha.
Finally an ordinance was introduced in the
city council and railroaded through on the
following evening , which granted a franchise
for fifty years on conditions that were die- ,
covered to be extremely unfavorabie to the
: lty. The Bee at cnce calicO attention to ( lie
weakness of the proposed ordinance and the
Dommercial elib and other business organl-
rations led in insisting on an amendment.
Fhrt agitation resulted in the ubstitution of
Lire present ordinance , which was agreed
Lo by all parties concerned , paeaecl by the'
ouncIl and signed 'by Mayor Hernia.
The increase in the consumption of gas to
rome extent indicatee the dveiopment of
ire ciiy. In 1880 the total annual coneump-
Ion \yao only 10,000,000 cubic feet. In 1894 :
Ire aggregate am ount of gas sold for all
urposcs wan 155,103,789 and in 1805 the
otal reached 161,214,470. With tue
rdditional reduction in the price
intl the Increased use of fuel gas
t Is expected that ( lie consumption tvill reach
iose to tiio 200,000,000 mark at the end of
ho present year.
