INDEPENDENT TELEPHONES.

New York. Jan. A dispatch from Boston printed in an evening paper today said that a combination of all the independent telephone companies throughout the United States was be- ing formed for the purpose of arriving at an agreement with the Bell com pany and practically doing away with all friction and competition in the tel ephone business.
 Frank s. Gardiner, who is the sec retary of the Peoples Telephone com pany, said this afternoon that there was no possibility of the New York company going into such a combina- tion and he did Tot believe such con- bination was being formed, because the man at the head of the Boston in- dependent company had organized sev- eral independent western companies, which were operating successfully against the Bell company. Some of the Boston telephone people were here a few days ago and conferred with Oar win R. James, president of the Peo- ple's Telephone company, but they simply came to see how things were working here in order to report at home

RIVAL OF ROBSON.
Stewart BriCe Volunteered for SerV-
 ice Similar 10 that of inc Hero.

On the 2d of July General Shafter cabled the war department that it would be absolutely necessary for the navy to force an entrance into the har- bor Of Santiago, engage the Spanish fleet, and cooperate with the army in it's final reduction of the city. This ca blegram was incorporated in Admiral Sampson's report. The following day Admiral Cervera's fleet left the harbor and was destroyed.
 Again General Shafter told Admiral Sampson that he ought to force an en- trance with one of his vessels and clear the channel so as to allow the fleet to follow. His desire was to lessen the enormous loss of life that would follow Q general assault on the Spanish trenches The presence of the fleet in the harbor would have haStened tha surrender and saved the army from the loss of life caused by protracted expos ure in the trenches.
 Still Admiral Sampson refused to risk the loss of one of his ships.
 It was then that General Shafter tel egraphed the war department that if necessary he would send in transports for the purpCsa of clearing the channel of mines and opening a path for the navy to enter, without any other dan ger than the fire from the land batter ieS.
 The answer of the war department, as published in the World, with the suggestion to use baled hay as a pro tection, was received by General Shaf- ter on July 6, or three days after the destruction of the Spanish feet
 Instead of sending fer the hay, as suggested Shafter called Colonel Hum phreys, chief of the quartermaster's department, confded to him his plan,

COAL PRICES.
Will Be Increased 25 Cents Per Ton
 at Buffalo and Chicago.

New York, Jan. 3-Men prominent in the coal trade in this city said today that the advance of 25 cents per ton for anthracite, which took effect in Buffalo and Chicago on January 1 would not necessarily affect tha' eastern market, although the increased general demand for coal might cause an advance in prices everywhere. The president of one of Gha important coal companies said it was not unlikely that the coal producers would take some action. Should cold weather continue, this president added an advance in the price of coal at tideWater was pretty certain to be made.
 The new prices in Chicago are $4.75 per ton net for egg, stove and chest nut and $450 per ton for grate. At Buffalo the p cents increase makes the prices $4.50 per gross ton for egg, stove and chestnut and $4.25 for grate. An at tempt was made to establish these prices two months ago, but no agree ment could be reached.

SANTIAGO TRANSFORMED.
Effect of Gen. Woods Enforcement Of
 Sanitary Regulations.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Capt. Brady of the signal service, who las ben building telegraph lines in eastern Cuba, says that Santiago has under gone a complete transformation since General Wood put into effect the Amer ican methods Of municipal regulation. Instead of being able to tell what part of town you were in by the particular Cdor greeting your nostrils, Capt. Brady says, the city is now free from cdors and is as clean, orderly and well regulated as many American cities of it's size. Brigades Of Cubans, m- st of them former Cuban soldiers. are at work daily laying pavements, and so3n the city will have paved avenuss and streets instead of the long stretches Of mud and filth. Every morning the street cleaning brigades, also compcs- ed of Cubans, give the streets a scour- ing, keeping the ditches open and the sewers flushed. There are nc more rowdyism and noisy Concentrations. The health conditions have improved with the cleaning up process and when Capt. Brady left there wSs net a case Of small pox in the city, a record a. most without precedent, as official ra- ports heretofore have shown that the city had these diseases almost the year around.

MONEY ORDERS IN THE EVENING
Postoffice Authorities Making Arrange
 ments for Their Issue

Washington, Jan. 3-The following suggestions for general adoption at the postofices in all large cities was given out at the pOstoffice department today:
 "It is now the practice at the larger pGStoffceS to close the money order business about o'clock in the evening. The department realizes that many per- sons, particularly those whose time is fully occupied during the day, are thus prevented from obtaining money or ders, and it has sought for some time to remedy this inconvenience
 "A plan recently adopted at St. Louis has proven so successful that it will be generally introduced by Assistant Postmaster General Heath, who has suggested that in asmuch as a clerk is on duty at the stamp window of the larger offices during all or part of every night, he may issue money orders when application is made therefor. At pres ent no arrangement is provided for the payment of orders, but if this measure meets with the approval of the public doubtless complete system of issue and payment will be provided for in the near future

GOSSIP OF EUROPE

| To the great sorrow of Queen Vic toria, and of all the royal family of England, the young duke of Albany has inherited the pronounced tendency to epilepsy from his father, whose entire life, so prematurely ended, it served to blight
 It had been hoped that the young prince, who has recently been a school mate at Eton of young Astor, and of ocler American lads being educated at that 6OO-year-old college, had escaped th5 afFiiction
 But during the past few months he has developed unmistakable signs of lne malady, and about a fortnight ago had his first fit, which was of such an alarming character that he was at once removed by orders of the doctors to his mothers home at Claremont a full week b5fOre the end of the term Nor is it likely that he will return to Eton.
 The affair is all the more sad, as the boy is very bright, merry, and popular, with a very keen sense of humor. In fact, mentally he bids fair to resemble his father, who, in spite of his phenom- enauy delicate health, was the most in tellectually brilliant, and far and away the most accomplished of all the sons of Queen Victoria.
 It may be remembered that the late duke of Albany met with his death in a particularly shocking fashion, hay ing first lacerated himseR with a pair of disappointed scissors and then rolled down stairs while in the throes of a most violent fit.
 It is to be hoped that his son, the. young duke, may ba preserved from ali analogous fate. But unfortunately cpl lepsy is enc of those mostly hereditary ailments for yhich there is little or no cure, and ali the hopes which had been

CAREER OF GARRETT A. HOBART
From a Country School Teacher to
Vice President.

From a Country School Teacher to
Vice President.
Garrett Augustus Hobart was born at
Long Branch n. j., June 3, 1914. He
received his education at Rutgers Col
lege and graduated when he was 20
years old. He began his career as
schoolmaster. Later on he took up the
study of law and was admitted to the bar

of Paterson, and in 1872 counsel Of the
freeholders Of Passaic County He rep
resented the Third district Of Passaic
County in the State Assembly in 1872.
Mr.. Hobart soon became one Of the
leading Republicans of his section. He
was married July 81, 1869 to Jennie Tut
tie, daughter of ex-Mayor Socrates Tut
tie of Paterson. He was reelected to
the Assembly in 1873, and at once took
the highest rank and was chosen Speak
er of that body. In 1876 Mr.. Hobart
was elected to the State Senate, and in
1881 was elected president of the SEN
ate, and was reelected the following
year.
During his terms in the Senate he be-
came q member of some Of the most inn
portant committees. From 1880 to 1891
he was chairman of the State Republican
committee of New Jersey, and under his
leadership the party conducted some
brilliant campaigns. He was nominated
In 1884 for United States Senator, but
the Legislature being Democratic, he
was defeated by John r. Macpherson.
He was delegate at large to the Repub-
lican national convention in 1876 and
again in 1880. He became member of
the national Republican committee in
1884, and served until 1896, when he was
nominated for Vice President and elected.
Since his election to the vice-presidency
Mr.. Hobart had played an important
part in political affairs. Between the
President and Mr. Hobart there have ex-
listed the most cordial relations, and the
visits between the two have been of the
most informal and neighborly character.
Mr. Hobart was a first-class business
man and was connected with numerous
big concerns. Mr. Hobart was a very
fascinating man, with a pleasant face.
He always had his pocketbOok open in
behalf Of charity. When he located in
Paterson his entire capital amounted to
only $3.50. He worked hard and his eff
forts were rewarded by remarkable
success.
Garrett A. Hobart was well beloved in
Paterson. He is said to have been
good neighbor and an honest business
man. During his illness the city seemed
to neglect regular duties to hear the news
from the bedside. and on all sides were
heard prayers for the sick man. Mr..
Hobart in health was a genial, courteous
gentleman and was most approachable.
After his election to the vice-presidency
he remained the same to his old friends
and associates.
Mrs. Hobart has been invaluable to
Mrs Mckinley, relieving her Of many Of
her trying social duties. Mr.. Hobart
has been equally valuable to Mckinley.
He was man of great tact, and his Dip
lomacy has been made use of by the
President in several trying situations.
