So far the Giauts have aoeoiniilislied a run of vi&torio that is domwalizing ito What has practically become an aUeged pennant race. Un less the western teams are able to whittle down tho lead of the New- Yorkers substantially, they should to urn to New York so far ahead of the I procession that itho rotrt of the race would ho a eantem. It was pointed out, however, that in i 190(5 the Giants were out ahead with a magnificent string of victories at about the same time of the year, and then wasted away to a more contender befo.ro July 4 had livened UT) the coun try. Today tho Giants will take on the Pirates. From Pittsburg they go to ('iu-einii-ati and 'then will take on the Cardinals and Cubs in order.

As we used 2,400 tons of coal last year and will probably use at least 2,500 tons this year, it is apparent that the in crease in the cost of coal will cause a large increase in the cost of making gas. Then, too, stokers wages have advanced from $72.00 ner month tn Rionnn X per month, an increase of 29. Most other labor costs have advanced ac- coroingiy. The result of these increased costs will be to cause the gas plant to exper ience a loss of about $1,461.00 this year, as shown in Gas Rate Talk No. 2, un less additional revenue is provided to the company by an increase in its rates for gas. The above loss is the amount that the gross income will be exceeded by the total operating and fixed or overhead expenses. Therefore, the com- rLwT..noAonlIlltoreceiveany interest on the investment of $215, 576.78 which the Public Service Commission has determined as being the actual value of the plant, but would also be' out the sum of $1,461.00 above mentioned.
