AMtstant City Attorney Dunn and othrr

with Thorn W. Bi-ikburn ai plaintiff in

Former Councilman Harry Zimman and
Weaver & Oilier, who handled the suit
and were attorneys for Mr. Blackburn
from the start, contend that this finding
will have to be made by a court and jury.
City Comptroller Lobeck has funds on
hand to the amount of $142,981.91, available
for the payment of any money that may be
allowed the Omaha Gas company toy the

just added the. product of the

any Interest, except for the first two years
after the suit was started. This 'tern of In
terest will be pretty substantial before a
final agrepment is reached.
Acting Mayor Burmenter this motnln.5
held a consultation with Mr. Dunn touch
ing the case. The' assistant city attorney
said he believed the city and the company
should not now find any difficulty In com
ing to an agreement. "There la nothing
that I can see In the way of a quick set
tlement," said Mr. Dunn. ' "The city hps
had the gas and the company Is entitled
to a fair price for it. What that price Is to
be can only be decided after a hearing
and a showing by both sides."
It Is understood that, In anticipation of
this outcome of the suit. City Chemist
Crowley's office has been making tests of
the gas burned in street lamps for four or
five months past. Just how much gas Is
being consumed by the street lights now
arid at the time the $23 contract was at
tempted to be entered into by council will
have to be shown ut the hearing In court,

Mr. Zlmman and Weaver St Glller, as at
torneys for Blackburn, admit that perhaps
better gaa ar.d better light are being fur
nished now than was the case In other
years, when they Insisted on $10 per lamp
per year as a fair price for the gaa and
$9 a fair price for the use of the burners
and hoods and for maintenance. At that
time council hart an offer from' the Cleve.
land Street Lighting company to furnish
burners and hoods and maintain the street
equipment for $9.90 per light, the city to
pay the Omeha Gas compnny for gas
actually used, at au agreed figure per 1,00)
feet.
The city of Omaha owns the posts used
for gas lighting, but the company controls
the Welsbach burners and the hoods. A
royalty Is paid on these, and as the city
contends this royalty Is paid to the parent
company controlling the Omaha Gas com
pany. At present the street gas lights are burn
ing between four and five feet an hour,
and the quality of 'gas Is meeting the re
quirements of the standard set by the
ceuncll.
W. J. Connell, who had a large part In
tho court case all through, seeking to up
hold the oontrai-t made by the council, had
no comment to make pending receipt of the
decision rendered by tho court and the dis
senting opinion of Judge Letton.
Georae V. Clabaugh, vice president and
secretary of the gas company, is 111 at his
home and his views could not be ascertained.
