Miss DaTst of the Ohio Press was next intro
duced, and said she had no apology to make for
being an Ohio woman; that the Buckeye State had
contributed its full share of distinguished women
to the country, and Ohio women to-day were earn
estly laboring 10 open up new fields to their sex
wherein they might find a livelihood, and the re-
suit of this was that as a rule Ohio women were
fully able TO take of themselves under all Cir
cunStances.
Judge Shellabarger then introduced Secretary
Sherman, who stated that he was laboring under
much embarrassment, as the nature of the meet
ing had been misFepreSented to him, as nc had
been informed that after single hour devoted to
speeches the fOorwas to be cleared fOrthe dancers.
He said that he saw from the expression of many
bright eyes before him that they would infinitely
prefer that 10 tine prosy speeches OF a lot of old
men, and would therefore extend hearty well
come TO his Ohio friends, and set an example to
his associates which they would do well to follow

the Baltimore Press Association, and sir. Irvine of

Mr.. W. II. Barnard, secretary and treasurer of the
National Capital Telephone Company, makes a
statement in which he says that there seems TO be
an erroneous impreSsian in minds of people
generally as to the cost of carrying on telephone
exchange and the amount telephone companies
are making. The rate of SIS per annum, here
tofOTe charged by the company, WAS fixed
when the business started, upon eSti-
mates for a probable two hundred subscribers
with no precedents or actual figures upon which to
base the cost of carrying on an exchange of even
that number. The growth of the business was not
fOTeseen, either iIf the number of persons who
would ind the telephone useful or the extent to
which it would be employed. Two years has
demonstrated the fact that $40, as uniform rate
applied to the present subscribers, does not psy
for the amount Of business carried on through the
telephones in use, and the whole volume OF bust
ness is of course increased with every added sub
scriber."
Every exchange in the country" continues Mr.
Barnard, must eventually adopt a system of
charges which will not compel subscribers who
do small business TO pay the losses the plIsi-
ness of those who do more. The company he
says, has never paid dividend, and under the
old system of charges never could pay one" The
company offers TO give any of the subscribers who
will call at the Office details sufficient 10 show that
they are not the propretors of a grand swindling
monopoly that their charges are lower by half
than those of ether cities Of like population that
their management is carried on with strict busi-
ness economy, and that profit if at all, is matter
entirely of tho future
