The above summary shows that the
number of subscribers has increased dur
ing the decade 800. 81 per cent. the number
of persons brought into communication
per exchange has increased $50 per
cent. the mileage of wire per subscriber
has increased 40. 80 per cent; while the in
terest- bearing and profit-sharing invest
ment has increased but $50 per cent per
subscriber.
Unfortunately the census report for 1880
affords no basis of comparison for cost to
subscribers per conversation. While these
data possess considerable statistical value,
it ia impossible by such methods to convey
a proper representation of the actual
changes that have oecurred in the business
of operating telephone companies during
the decade from 1880 to 1890. Improve
ments in instruments and exchange switch
boards, changing from grounded to metal
lie circuits, placing wires underground,
extension of lines to extra territorial dis
tricts and finally; the introduction of
long distance service, combine to make the
service rendered in 1890 more valuable and
satisfactory to subscribers than the service
rendered in 1880.
The presence in the statistics for 1890
for the first time of the items "5, O29. 438
feet of cables" and 1854. $50 miles of wire
underground" requires a few words of
explanation and comment. The rapidly
increasing number of subscribers rem
dered it imperative to employ very large
number of wires for the service. This led
to punching of wires in cables. The average
number of wires so punched in present
practice is about so pairs. The increasing
number of wires and cables for various
electrical purposes led to an urgent demand
that the wires be placed underground in
the congested districts of large cities.
A comparison of the cost Of the two sys-

mense Growth of the Telephone
Service in the United States.
New Haven is specially interested in the
report given below just made by the
United States census bureau, showing the
great growth and increase of the use of the
telephone in the last ten years in this big
country of ours. The growth is certainly
wonderful, as also the growth of the plants
and the increase of the money invested.
The telephone, few years ago looked
upon doubtfully and as an uncertainty
and by many as merely visionary project,
has become indispensable and all
over the globe the telephone wires are to
be seen and the telephone "hello" ia
heard. The long distance telephone came
later and brought a new surprise with its
| achievements. New Haven has an i'm
portant place in the history of the tele-
phone for New Haven was the
first city in the world to
have telephone exchange system
| by which one subscriber could converse
with another. To the energy, enterprise
and sggressiveness of the late Herrick P.
Frost and George W. Coy, now of Milford,
much of the honor of this pioneer move
ment in New Haven is due. New Haven,

to have DR.. Bacon talk with ex Governor

the late DIR. Bacon, but the wires didn'
work satisfactorily. Still, as in the cast

A BUSY LIFE.

Everybody remembers with affection
our genial fellow townsman, Mai. NEW
son. Not many years ago he was a
smiling and undaunted aspirant for all
or any of our local Offices. He never
was elected, but he appeared perennially
on the Republican ticket. No Repub-
lean ticket was complete without him,
and his courage and high spirits under
uninterrupted defeat were the city's
wonder and admiration.
When HARRISON came in, then also
came Maj. NEwsoN's opportunity. He
was appointed consul to Malaga, where
there are grapes. very fine grapes. in
deed" Since then. save for an occa-
sional personal letter, but little has
been heard of him. The reason for his
silence has at last been disclosed. He
has been very busy, and has recently
given an account of his stewardship in
report to the state department. This
document has been published at the
governments expense. is enjoying a
wide circulation. and exciting interested
comments in the metropolitan press.
The GLOBE has been favored with

has to tell him about his feelings.
He says in his report: mot an Ameri-
can vessel of any kind has made it's
appearance at our port for the past two
years. One who loves his country longs
to gaze upon the stars and stripes of its
commercial steamers and ships; but
they come not"
This is important, and probably ac-
curate. But if one did not read further
it would convey false impression of
the way in which the major spends his
time. Thus far he would seem to be a
sort of Enoch Arden, shipwrecked,
looking for sail, no sail from day to
day, etc. But the picture is misleading.
He really has not been loafng on the
sea shore: lie has been much occupied,
and he gives us full details.
For one thing. he has been shopping.
He recently bought six pairs of socks at
% cents pair. Besides this, he has
imported gas stove from New York.
This took good deal of time, and
proved very expensive. 1t cost nearly
SIS to get it from America to Malaga.
BUTT pays for all the trouble and out
lay. because here are his published
words: ''Let me say that my stove is a
beauty and works admirably. 1t is still
burning and still gives pleasure and de-
light and plenty OF heat"

THE HOME RULE CAUSE.

Despite its apparent majority of forty
in the house of commons, home rule for
Ireland is still a long way in the future.
After the announcement of GLAD
STONES cabinet, which will probably
be made the last of this week, parlia-
ment will adjourn until February. In
the interval the new administration
will shape its policy in both domestic
and foreign affairs, and Mr.. GLAD
STONE will prepare his home rule bill.
The Irish members of the house of
commons will probably insist on the
presentment of the home rule bill i'm
medlately on the reassembling of par
lament, and they have the power to
block other legislation until their de-
mands are acceded to. A large proper
ton of the English Liberals, on the
other hand, will probably desire
to see other domestic measures
advanced at least on an equality with
the home rule bill. Mr.. GLADSTONE
himself is said to be DESTROYS to give
precedence to the one-man-one-vote
measure, whose passage would greatly
facilitate Liberal success in future
elections. Under the present suffrage
system in England an adult male prop
erty owner can vote III every borough
where he has property interests, and as
the landlords are almost universally
Tories, the resulting advantage to the
Tory cause is easily comprehensive.
The One-man-one-vote measure is de-
signed to do away with this advantage,
and il the Irish members are wise in
their day and generation they will
allow GLADSTONE to pass this measure
before the home rule bill is pushed. AL
most inevitably another appeal to the
country will be necessary before home
rule becomes an accomplished fact,
since the house of lords will feel war;
ranted in throwing out any home rule
measure which the present narrow ma
jorlty in the commons passes. To Sc
cure in this next election a sufficient
majority to compel acquiescence by the
lords. Mr.. GLADSTONE will need all the
| assistance which the one-man-one-vote
measure can give him. The American
friends of home rule for Ireland ear
nestly hope that the Irish members OF
parliament will temper their zeal with
patience and allow Mr.. GLADSTONE
his own time and way in accomplishing
the grand reform to which they may
rest assured he is inviolably welded.

GLADSTONE'S GLORY.

Joyous Acclaim Greets the New
Premier at All Points.
LONDON, AIg. 16.-Contrary to the
popular impression, but not to the i'm
preston of those who know best the
feelings of her majesty, Mr.. Gladstone
had warm reception at Osborne. AL
though Queen Victoria does not like
Mr.. GladStone's politics, she has the re-
spect of veteran for veteran, and is
known to be grateful to Mr.. Glad
stone for the tact and skill with
which he has often interviewed to
protect the royal family from Radical
assaults in parliament. Her majesty
talked with Mr.. Gladstone for half all
hour in private. Of their conversation
of course nothing has been revealed.
All that has reached the public from
the royal precincts is that Lord Sails
bury himself was never treated more
cordially.
Mr.. Gladstone left Osborne on his re-
turn at 10 o'clock this morning. At
Cowes great throng of spectators was
assembled and they cheered the new
premier over and over again, it being
noticeable that the henchmen of the
royal household were just as demon
lStratlve as the rest of the people.
Yesterday they were a little re-
served, but the news of Mr.. Gladstone's
favorable reception had gone abroad
and the dependents of royalty took
their cue from the queen. At South
amptOn it seemed as if the whole city
had poured out to meet Gladstone, and
as the royal yacht approached, the
cheers of the people were audible far
out on the waves. Mr.. Gladstone, his
face beaming with satisfaction, bowed
repeatedly to the people Who rent the
air with their shouts and hurrahs. 1t
was evident to everybody that his inter-
view with the queen had been satisfac-
tory.
On his way back to London Mr.. Glad
stone received another great ovation at
Basingstoke. The crowd was mostly
country people assembled from far and
near on the news that Mr.. Gladstone
had passed the day before and was on
his way back today. 1t was a peculiar
gathering. including substantial farm
ers in broadcloth, ordinary Workingmen

and therefore the object of the high ad-

there seems TO be imminent danger that
all this glory is turning the colonel's
head. His ideas are getting trife too
large, even for a man of his eXtraordi-

Chicago to no-limit game of bluff. and
