CITY OF SOMERVILLE.


OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF LIGHTS, - January 2, 1893.


To the Honorable the Mayor and City Council : -


GENTLEMEN, - As required by ordinance, I have the honor to submit my report relating to street lights for the year 1892.


There were in the city on January 1, 1892, 517 street lamps. During the year 115 electric arcs and ten incandescents have been added, and 144 incandescents discontinued, making the number in the city December 31, 1892, three oil lamps, 273 electric arcs, and 222 incandescents.


The arc and incandescent lights are to burn, by terms of the new contract made for five years from October 1, 1892, 3,828 hours in each year. A schedule of the time of lighting and putting out is given to the company each month by me.


A fine of six cents per hour for arc and one cent per hour for incandescent lights is imposed on the company for all lights out dur- ing the time they should be in service. The way of obtaining the outs is by the police patrolmen, which seems to me to be the best way yet devised. It is done so in all cities which I have knowledge of. The police cover the whole city, and a report from them each morn- ing comes as near being correct as any that can be obtained without great expense.


Three of the arc lights have been changed from iron poles and placed upon arms, on wooden poles, leaving only four upon iron extensions which belong to the city. Four arcs are suspended across the street, twenty-nine are upon wooden poles, and 236 are upon arms. The change made from placing the arc lights upon poles to arms is a good one, and carries out the recommendations of my report of last year.
