ELECTRIC INSPECTOR'S PAY.

Ordinance to Have Light Company

Contribute $1,800 a Year.

An ordinance will be passed by the council next Monday night, directing the Kansas City Electric Light Company to contribute $1,800 annually to the city to pay the salary of an inspector of electrical meters. Patrons of the company can have meters installed in premises occupied by them tested for irregularities by depositing $1 with the inspector. Should the meter register too fast the $1 is restored to the patron, but should it prove slow or correct the dollar is retained.
