After three hours of the rale waa fixed as follows: Flat rale, $1.00 for the first light and 50 cents for ench additional; meter rate. 13 cents per kilowatt hour; arc light, $4 per month. The nutter of hiring an engineer and foreman waa then taken up and discussed for some time, but it was so late no decision could be reached, aud lbs matter went over until tonight. A report of the treasurer showed that the $10,00 which was raised by bonding is about exhausted and It will take considerable more to complete the work. The machinery is being put in place and a fair estimate 1 that it will take about. $2,nOU more before the plant can be paid for.

The following says In part aa follows: "From October 17 to October 23 my family and I were hidden In the dark-ne- s of our cellar and now thank Uod that our lives were even spared. There happened here the mot terrible scenes. There are 30,000 famines that saved absolutely nothing but the clolhes which they wore and are now huddled together in the open streets. There were 20,000 Injured and 15.000 murdered. Little children were burled out of windows to their death, and awful injuries were inflicted. Women were piecrced with large knives, their stomachs and intestines cut open and were then left to die In the street by (he thousands. "On October 17 a manifesto cams from BL Petersburg giving us a constitution. This produced a good feel-lu- g and everybody celebrated aa on a holiday. People paraded the street a with red flags and sang songs of freedom and speeches of freedom wore made. "But on the aaine night mobs eon-g- it gated on the outskirts of the city and started to boat the Jews. On ths following day a crowd of marauders, with the assistance of the police, started to march through the streets with the national flag and ikon of the church and also the exar's pore trait. A they went they cried "Bey Sxidov (meaning "beat tfao Jews. As they sang and yelled they threw stones at the houses' and destroyed homes In the center of the city. If any Jews were found in the street they were horribly tortured and murdered outright. Houses were robbed one after the other and the large stores and warehouses were pillaged. "In one word. It looked like a veritable and awful war. Merchandise was carried away from stores In great loads. The doors and windows of homes and buildings of all kinds were broken In, and we all thought wre would be killed. "On account of these deathly scenes I am too weak to give you anything like a true description. All I can tell you 1 that we are all sick from the happenings and our nerves cannot bear any longer.
