Telephone Rates.

The ost-repeated assertion that tele-
phonic service cannot be afforded at a
lower rate than that which prevails in
most of our large cities, and the oft-re-
peated statement, on the part of the
American Bell monopolists, that "the
larger the business, the larger the ex-
pense" (Which is contrary to all known
data Of commercial science), have OF late
received most convincing setback. As
everybody knows, the. fundamental Bell
patents have expired in Great Britain.
In 1898, the same patents will expire in
the United States. By reason of certain
adverse judicial decisions, there exists
lust across the border-in Canada-a
state of affairs which is plainly indicative
of what will take place here in 1893 To-
day Montreal furnishes the cheapest tele-
phonic service ON this continent. The
long-established "Bell" company de-
mands only $25 year for either residen-
tial or business houses. The opposition
company, the Federal Telephone Co.,
which brought rates to their present
basis, charges $35 q year for business
houses and $25 year for residences.
Both concerns are doing lively business.
The local "Bell" company has about
5000 subscribers in the city, and the
opposition company has about $3.50 sub
scribers. Both organizations use the
same apparatus. This reduction in tele-
phone rates not only applies to cities
with from 5000 to 10000 subscribers,
hut is also taxing place in Berlin, which
has even larger number OF subscribers,
and also in London, where the rates
have been reduced from els to Gl0 per
annum. What better evidence than
these facts can be adduced to prove that
the business can be done, and is being
done today, in the largest cities of the
world when the patents have become in
valid through the expiration Of their
terms, and that legislatures, in this coun-
try, will regulate the rates SO as to con-
form to these, in some just proportion,
after the patent monopoly on the Bell
and Blake apparatus shall haye expired?

THE CONVENT IMPROVEMENT.

Work to be Commenced at Once -
More subscriptions Received.
The committee having in charge the
work of procuring funds for the renova-
ton, filling in and improvement, sani-
tarily and every other way, of the Sisters
Convent, met last evening and received
very encouraging reports from the vari-
ous canvassing committees, although the
canvass for funds cannot yet be said to
be more than fairly inaugurated.
II was determined 10 proceed immedi-
ately with the necessary work of filling
in the entire block, and it was ordered
that bids therefor be advertised for at
once.
Following that at least, and probably
proceeding in conjunction with il, will be
the erection of q new three-story addition
to the present large building, and the
tearing down of all the older structures,
As the funds come in other work will be
commenced, and it is the intention of the
gentlemen having the matter in charge
not to rest until the convent can be really
said 10 be almost a new convent through
out. and a credit and an ornament to the
city.
The money seems to be gradually COM
ing in for this purpose, sometimes even
without solicitation, and there are to be
credited tothe larger sums published $500
from ~ Friond," and 500 from j. w.
kaseberg.

Mr.. SilcoX's lecture lasted two hours,
and was then hastily closed, evidently
not having all been delivered. But the
speaker was hindered by the giving out
OF his reading-lamp, so that when half
through he was compelled to lay aside
his manuscript. But even under these
circumstances the lecture was an intel
iectuat treat, replete with important
truths, rich in spectacular illustration
and overfiowing with valuable statistics.
There was pleasant vein of humor in
the discourse, some fine advocacy of re-

What Has Recome of the Man Whom
Haley Assaulted

What Has Recome of the Man Whom
Haley Assaulted
The battery case of Jerry Haley was
continued indefinitely in the Police
Court yesterday. The complaining wit
ness, L. Kies, could not be found, but
Judge Cravens decided not to dismiss the
case. He thought the complainant was
trifling with the court.
The complainant said, when he applied
for the warrant for Haley's arrest, that he
was walking peaceably along the street
on Saturday afternoon, when Haley
sprang at him and dealt him prize
lighters blow in the face, without provo
cation.
Haley, on the other hand, declares that
Kies insulted him and that he deserved
all he got.

A GOOD BEGINNING
Now Let the Police Commissioners Do
some More Recommending.


some More Recommending.
The City Trustees did commendable
thing yesterday in ordering the re-
vocation of the licenses held by a
woman named Marcellus and one
John Bowman, conductors Of notori-
Gus dives on Second street. Now if
the board will supplement this good work
by refusing licenses to other parties to
reopen the same places it will be doing
another wise and proper thing.
Some months ago the Trustees were
asked by Police Judge Cravens and Po-
lice Captain Lee to revoke the license of a
notorious dive on another corner of Sec
ond and l. streets, where men were made
drunk and robbed almost nightly. The
board decided in that case, after listening
to lawyers argument in behalf of the
keeper of the dive. that the latter was en-
titled to hearing, and an evening was
liked therefor. ltresulted in farce-the
license was not revoked, and the dive
goes on as before.
It is gratifying to note this change of
heart on the part of the Trustees-that
they have at last been able see their way
clear to deal with the keepers of these in
famous dens that disgrace the community
SO that hereafter, when proofs are laid
before them Of the disreputable character
of place, they may have the courage to
revoke the proprietor's license without
granting the divekeeper hearing" in
public.
And it is to be hoped that the Police
Commissioners will not be backward in
asking for the revocation of dive licenses.
now that the Trustees have placed them
selves on record as being prepared to act
in accordance with the Police Commits
sioners' recommendation in that partic-
ul8T.
OF course the latter body viii not stop
with the cases of Madame Marcellus and
John Bowman. The Rosebuds, the We
toes, and for that matter score more of
equally disreputable headquarters of
thieves and prostitutes are, in the Ian
guage of their patrons, still in it." Let
the good work inaugurated yesterday go
on.
