Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from State Development of Water Power: Statement of Clark H. Hammond, Corporation Counsel, City of Buffalo, at the Joint Hearing of the Senate and Assembly Judiciary Committees, Albany, N. Y., March 12, 1912
So, when you talk about the Public Service Commission, I can give you the facts that I have been up against, and those are the facts.
Now, another proposition, a little hole that we have discovered. We have the Niagara Falls Power Company at Niagara Falls that generates and transmits electricity to the city line in Buffalo. It then' transfers or sells that power to the Cataract Power and Conduit Company, the Niagara Falls Power Company being a majority stockholder of that company, the Cataract Power and Conduit Company, and the Cataract Power and Conduit Com pany then sells it to the Buffalo General Electric Company, and the Buffalo General Electric Company distributes it.
Now, I have looked with great care into the Public Service Commission's law and I have not found any provision where. It is provided that a mayor of a city or a hundred consumers can file any complaint against a gene-rating company if they don't do business with _them.
