The Parkersburg council is show
ing evidence of a desire to turn
down the new home telephone COM
pany which wants a franchise there.
Should this be done the Bell will get
stronger hold than ever on the
people Some time ago this com
pany in setting one of it's poles be-
gan to cut a large flag stone in
front of mans place of business.
The stone had been bought by him
and placed in position. To cut it in
the manner they had begun would
have ruined it. The merchant re-
monstrated and was pushed aside as
if of no consequence. The incident
aroused such excitement that some
OF the linemen were very roughly
handled. This shows the attitude
OF the company where they are not
opposed by any other company.
Where there is opposition their
rates are much lower and their con
duct is much more endurable. No
council can make a mistake by
granting a franchise to competing
telephone company 1t has worked
like charm. We have two ex-
changes and we have fair rates. Be
fore the opposition came we paid $50
year Now We pay $12. Both
companies are doing better than
either one separately so that every
one concerned is benefited.

DESTROYED BY A TORPEDO.
Opinion Expressed by Rear Admiral Bel
KNAPP on the Explosion.

KNAPP on the Explosion.
Boston, Feb. 17,-Rear Admiral
George Belknap, U. S. N, retired, said
that he was inclined to think that the
Maine was blown up by torpedo.
Il do not see, he said, chow an ex-
plosion of the forward magazine could
have occurred. The keys of the maya
zines are always kept in the custody of
the captain. All the ammunition is
carefully cased, mostly in the form of
projectiles, and their explosion by them
selves is next to impossible. If, as the
dispatches state, the whole bow of the
ship was blown off, it is apparent that
the explosion could not have been caused
by the boilers or the coal getting heated
/ do not see how it could have occurred
flo the palntroom, as every precau-
ton is taken to prevent the collection of
explosive gases in the paintroom, and if
such an explosion occurred, it would
have been more likely to have caused
fire than destroy the ship.
Rear Admiral Belknap said it was
very significant thing that the Maine
should have blown up IN that particular
harbor at this particular time. In the
absence of information as to the cause
of the explosion, he thought that was
the most significant indication in the
whole matter.

WASHINGTON, Feb. IA discussion
upon coast defenses was the interesting
feature of the senate. Many senators
took the ground that the appropriations
should be for the full amount of the es.
Inmates by the war department instead
of some $4,000,000 less. Senators Per
kins and Hale said that it was the policy
of the appropriations committee to make
an annual expenditure of So OO, 600 a
year for fortitcations.
Senators Stewart, Hawley, Chandler
and Lodge spoke in favor of increases
Senator Teller also advocated liberal ex-
penditures, and during his remarks
made significant illusions to Cuba and
Hawaii.

Mexican officers we're on the trail of
