POOR TELEPHONE SERVICE.
What Causes the Constant Ringing Over
the Wires.

What Causes the Constant Ringing Over
the Wires.
For several days the patrons of the
telephone service have been gradually
annoyed by ringing noise in the
phones, that render it almost impossi-
bic at times to hold conversation.
Yesterday morning TINES reporter
visited the central office to investigate
the cause. He was informed there bv
Manager Wright that the noise was a
greater nuisance in the central Office
than it was to the general public, and
was caused by the proximity of the
wires OF the street railway to the telc.
phone wires.
The railway wires arc heavily
charged, while the lines of the telephone
are not, and the electricity escapes from
the railway wires to the telephone lines.
MIR. Wright says this can be remedied
only in one way, and that is by placing
return wires to each instrument so that
the electric current can be completed
without using the ground rs medium.
This will cost considerable sum of
money. and the telephone company
think that the railway company should
bear the expense. At any rate this
VIII be done as necessity before a
good telephone service can be given.

approve of the use of Mrs. Cleveland's

signed to do political work. We trust
you will not undervalue our objection.

Electricity in Arms Making.

The electric current has been utilized
since 1899 at the small arms factory at
st. Etienue for annealing the steel wire
of which the hammer springs OF the rifle,
1886 pattern, are made. These springs
are manufactured of steel wire, :
millimeters thick, cut in lengths of 3.2t
meters; the wire is rolled spiraliy. and (
current Of t~wenty-three alnperos Is
passed through it. Heating is rapidly
effected; when it is judged sufficient the
circuit is closed, and the hammer spring
is dropped into a water tank.
One man can anneal twenty springs
in three minutes, equivalent TO about
2,4O0 per day. Electric annealing being
clean in operation and cheap vii! no
doubt soon be applied in numerous cases
