THE TELEPHONE SERVICE.
Subscribers VIII Pay the Usual
Rate.

The telephone investigation has again
been POSTPONED. 1t was adjourned from
last Friday to today, but as the mem
Bers of the committee did not attend
this morning no order was made for the
future.
If the people of Washington are basinS
any hopes OF relief from telephone monop-
oily upon the present Congress or the Sc
lect committee to investigate the tele-
phone service they are leaning upon a
broken reed
in the first place, the provision in the
District appropriation bill limiting the
charges for telephones is a piece of legis-
1ative buncombe that means nothing 1t
was not intended to mean anything. No
penalty is prescribed for a violation of
the restrictions imposed and the telephone
company simply laughs.
Only few days ago business man of
the city called al the telephone company's
office and proposed to renew his con-
tract at the rates named in the District
bill. He was fatty informed that If he
wanted telephone service he would pay
the company's rates, Sl25 per year. for
each telephone. He undertook to argue
the question, referring TO the action of
Congress to rates that was about TO
become law. The officers of the COM
pIny informed him that Congress did
not make rates for them. They con-
WINGED him that he could only get service
on their terms and he renewed his con-
tract at the former rates
The provision in the District bill was
first proposed by Mr.. Baker, of New
Hampshire. two years ago. 1t was
adopted by the House. but was stricken
out by the Senate. At the present session
Mr.. Berry, of Kentucky. started the agi-
tation against excessive telephone rates.
MIR. Pitney. of the Appropriations Com
mittee. tore out of an old bill. the Baker
provision and offered it as an amendment
IT was adopted and when the bill reach
ed the Senate. the Senators. instead of
promptly striking ii out. as it was ex-
pected they would do. agreed to it.
The provision was unchanged in con-

Report of the ConfeIees Is Sub
mitted to the House,

There were just sixty-six members

Mr.. Henderson of Iowa submitted tbe
conference report on the bankruptcy bill.
The report was signed by all the con-
ferees except Mr.. Terry of Arkansas.
A statement setting forth the changes
made from the original bill was read.
1t was long. tiresome and technical, and
not single member paid any attention
to the reading. The conference report
was agreed to in the Senate last Fri
day.
AT the request of Mr.. Henderson it was
agreed that the debate should be limit
ed to fiftyfive minutes on each side he
to control the time in support of the re-
port. and Mr.. Terry to control it for the
opposition.

FAR11.dL SUSPENSION.

Our citizens were considerably
worked up over the report on
Tuesday morning that the
Adams mine had largely sus.
pended operations. Such a con
dition seemed probably on &C.
count of the suspension of Sc
many other properties of the
Consolidated group. However,
it is not nearly as bad as itlooks.
Today we interviewed Supt. J.
H. Hearding, and from him we
gathered the information thai
No. 1 and No. 3 shafts have lei
ont the night shifts. No. 2 still
works vigorously. The men left
off Of mining are put to work
cleaning up the large tract OF
ground between No. 2 and No.
shafts and will probably be re-
tanned on surface work unit
further orders. The object Of
the close is said to be due to {
lack Of dock room at Cleveland

CH-ARG LS COME HIGH.

Under the above caption the
Duluth News Tribune of Wed
nesday gives room to a screed
relative to the remains of Harry
Garfield, drowned, from which
we clip as follows:
THE body of Harry Garfield
came in on the Missabe train
yesterday afternoon. A rather
unpleasant occurrence happened
in connection with shipping the
body from Virginia. The under.
taKer at Virginia that had charge
of the body while there. wrote tc
Canfeld's parents in West Du-
luth asking if he should furnish
a casket for the body. He re
ceived word not to lay out the
body, but to send it to West Du.
luth as soon as possible. 1t is
supposed he was angry at not
obtaining the Job for he sent the
body by express. When Under
taker Fowler went to the train to
get the body it was refused him
till the charges, amounting to
ST., were paid. The body was
delivered to the express office in
Duluth"
The statement of the N. r.
does an injustice to Undertaken
Weinberg; and is Intentionally
misleading. The body of Harry
Garfield was brought to Virgin
ia, and Undertaken Weinberg
embalmed the remains and de-
livered same to the express com
pany, his charges for same be-
ing $10.25, which can IN nowise
be considered exorbitant. The
express charges on the remains
to Duluth were 1918, making a
total charge of SIS. 43, instead of
$500 as averred. The News.
Tribune might profit by beng
more careful of the truthfulness
of it's statements before giving
them the circulation afforded by
it's limited list.
