His pro- posal is to erect la Singapore a rullable electric Installation, and to apply the light to the stiest lamps at the rate of five pence per Board of Trade unit per hour. He rabolts figures to show that, on the basis of the 1,030 street lamps at present sapple with light by the Gas Company, there would be a clear saving to the Municipality of $8,0ce a year. That is to say, the Municipality at present pays $50,000 a year for a specific quantity of light for specific number of bours,' for 1,010 lampe, for precisely the some quantity oflight, as measured
