INSISTING on The WIRES
Telephone Company Argues lngen-
lousy Before the Commissioners.
Claim They May Extend Overh cad
Wires without Violating Law II
Mileage Is Not Increased.

AT the hearing given by the Commission
ers yesterday 10 the managers OF the Cheese
peaSe and Potomac Telephone Company,
the Argument was made wholly upon the
right of the company, under the law, TO
string wires for the purpose OF making
connections, and the plea was advanced
that SO long as the mileage or wire was
not increased there was no liability.
Judge Jere Wilson. the ,ompa ny 5
counsel. contenoed tnat under the act OF
July 10, 1883, and of subsequent iegisla
ton the company was restricted only i'll
the matter of StrIngine additional wires
that the mileage shall not be increased -
but that the Commissioners have the
power to SO adjust the existing service as
10 accommodate the needs of the service
lie thought the Commissioners had the
right to shift cross wire-one that crosses
street-from one square TO another, and
that so long as the mileage is not increased
there would be no violatio n.
Does not all this really tend to g de-
mand for additional legislation, an in
crease in auihority?' asked Commissioner
Ross.
Il think not" replied Judge Wilson.
lis 1t possible to get a judicial construc-
ton Of the Commissioners authority?'
pursued Mr.. Ross.
II do not see how we can" responded
Mr.. Wilson; and he then proceeded to Illus
trate his point by citing examples OF ha rd
shin one instance being where the com
pany is rendered liable to fine Of S25 per
day for maintaining eight feet OF wire
for the accommodation Of an important
interest.
Attorney Thomas, representing the Dis
trict said that under Judge Wilson'S con-
struction of the law the company might
remove any given amount OF wire even
dead wire in order to decrease its mileage
and make up for this decrease by adding
wire somewhere else along its lines for the
accommodation of some other important
interest. He had advised the Commis-
sioners that the electrical companies may
be permitted to replace old wires with
new wire or a different wire. but he asked
Judge Wilson whether or not it is his
opinion that the company may. under the
law, take down half mile or wire in one
locality for the purpose of putting up the
same amount of wire else ewhere in the CITY,
Judge Wilson replied that in his judgment
il is not a violent assumption to say that
the law gives that right.
Mr.. Bryan said he could not see the
Justice OF the present construction of the
law. He does not believe that Congress
meant to destroy all rights. and if the
stringing of overhead wires is utterly pro-
hlbited, and underground conduits are not
permitted, the effect isthat necessary house
connections cannot be made at all.
The question: will be exhaustively in
quired into by Attorney Thomas, who will
render his opinioDn covering the entire con-
tcntion. The company will then deter
mine what course it will pursue.

A considerable number Of researches
have been going on in the psychological
laboratory Of the University of Wiscon-
sin during the current year. Mr..
Quantz, fellow In psychology, has been
investigating the psychology of the
reading process. His main attempts
have been to ascertain what processes
help to make one a rapid reader and
how far the ease of comprehension is
related to the quickness Of reading. The
research has not gone far enough to
yield very definite results as yet and
will be continued another year. but
number OF very significant suggestions
have been reached. Mr.. Bolton, q adu.
ate student, has been investigating the
relation between sensation and sugges-
tion, or, in other words. how far what
we see Is determined by what there is
there to see or by what we suppose Is
present. A number of ingenious
methods of studying this influence have
been devised and paper Is In prepara-
ton on the subject. Another investiga-
tion relates to the question Of how far
we mean the same thing by the same
words. The investigation begins With
the color-names and attempts to ascer-
tain how far what we associate with
the name red" or "blue" is the same
for different individuals. Similar in
vestigatlons regarding size and shape
and other common notions are also In
cludsd in the study.
