r.. l.. Barber, of Wauseon, O., in his
paper, "The Development of the Tele-
phone" said in part:
at the time OF the advent of the
independent movement had those who
were in possession of the telephone
interests of this country been disposed
to be half way fair with the people
the independent telephone movement
would never have been born, and those
of us, who are Eere assembled today
would never have had the pleasure Of
communicating with each other, nor
the experiences we have had since we
engaged In this line of human endear-
or. But they were not 80 disposal. /.
They seemed to believe that they had
everything their own way: that the
telephone was invented only for the
rich of the populous centers of out
country, and by their acts of exclusion
deprived nine-tenths of the population
of our country the privilege of enjoy
ing this greatest of modern improve
ments. The telephone is no longer n
luxury to be enjoyed by the rich, but
1t has become an everyday necessity
to the home, as the cool, stove, and
essential to the business office as the
desk or typewriting machine"

Railroad Men do Not Believe the
KIM Story.

The story that Thomas w. King.
president Of the Pittsburg & Western,
is to take the place of Frederick n.
Underwood as general manager of the
Baltimore & Ohio after July T. was
generally discredited yesterday. II
served, however, to bring out one
thing In connection with the matter
which has been lost sight of In the
discussion as TO the possibility Of Mr..
Underwood retiring from the r. q o.
The story has been going the rounds
for some time that Mr.. Underwood
was to retire. 1t all seemed to start
with the rumor that he was going to
the Denver & Rio Grande az Its gen.
cral manager. This mistake was quite
natural, seeing that the position Of
general manager of that road was Of
fered to Mr.. Underwood, but 1t
happened to be the brother of the
general manager of the g. & o., who
| Is now connected in a prominent ca
Ipacity with one of the Western roads
The story that Mr.. Underwood went
there as n representative of J. j.
Hill is also put TO rest by other de.
tails which have been brought to light
1t seems that Mr.. Underwood went to
the B. & q. after great deal of per.
suaslon on the part of the officials Of
that company, and he was wanted be.
cause of his worth and not because he
represented any holding in that prop
lerty. Mr.. Underwood was at first un-
willing to 80 to the road, so the story
goes, aud 1t was necessary 10 give him
the maximum salary of the Office which
he fills and then adds a bonus to IL
with tivc-year contract before lie
would make terms. AS but fraction
Of the time covered in this contract
has been spent on that road, it is be-
lieved to be wholly unlikely that Mr..
Underwood now contemplatcs change
which will make it necessary that he
surrender his contract or ask to be re-
leased from It, Another reason why
the story Is discredited Is that the feel
ing between Mr.. King and the b. e.
o. officials is none too cordial, too
strong contentious having been en-
gagged in recently for there to be any
great amount of amity between them.

OF Unusual Interest to the People Of
Akron.

al business Mt Cleveland yesterday.
The convention assembled at 10 o.
clock and listened to President Thorn
as annual address and several papers
by we'll known telephone men.
This morning the election of officers
will take place and the city where the
convention will be held next year will
be selected. President J. NJ. Thomas
will be reelected and it is the intention
to accept the invitation from New
York for next years convention. This
afternoon, If the weather Is fair the
delegates will be entertained with II
four hours ride on the lake.
President Thomas, is his annual ad-
dress, strongly advised the independ-
ent interests to work In harmony. He
rccounted the telephone business of the
past year, which, lie said, was one or
the great progress for the indcnpend-
ent people.
"It will take at least 100000 900 to
install all the telephones that our pres
ent population requires" said the
speaker. "When we think Of these
possibilities, the broad expense or ter
ritory, our great population, the almost
incomprehcnsible number of dollars
that it will take to supply a demand
that can created, we wonder how 1t is
possible that men should take mar
row view Of the subject and allow
themselves to waste their time and
money IN warfare over territorial di-
vision. There is ample territory for
all, and certainly place for every
dollar there is to invest. What we
need more than anything else at this
time Is good, clear business judg-
ment which will devote itself 10 this
great work.
Hugh Daughevty Of Bluffton, Ind.
read a paper on "lndependent Tele-
phone Investments" He said in part:
Conclusions should not be drawn
from an inspection Of figures indicating
profit fol- the present month or year,
produced by subtract!ng operating ex-
pcuse from gross receipts alone. Sew
eral things IN the way of conditions,
along With the figures, must be con-
sldered.
First, the necessity of the telephone
service to the business world, second.
the rate charged for exchange and
toll line service; third, the character
of construction and equipment; fourth,
the profit and benefit 10 the user Of
the telephone securing continued and
increasing patronage.
ut would seem that the knowledge
that the members of this Association
have Of the Increase of business for
tive years past Of the independent tel
ephone throughout the United States
would be sufficient answer TO the first
proposition, VIZ: that 1t Is a necessity
to the business world and cannot now
be dispensed with any more than the
telegraph or mail service.
Il think that fifty years hence the

money viii be perfectly safe as far
as permanency. stability and satisfac-

to be charged for telephone service
should be such as the public can afford
to pay in the locality where the invest
ment is made, No arbitrary rate can
be named for all conditions.

Why Sentries Go Mad.

Peering into darkness or semi
darkness while on sentry has a
tendency to produce a distortion of
vision which makes of every bush an
enemy, and this has in many cases,
even so recently as the Soudan cam
uaigns, so affected the nerves of men
that they have had a resulting
monomania as to eternally seeing
various creeping objects.
One man in the Soudan saw every
object of a vivid crimson for some
months and after being On outpost
duty during an alarm, and he was
only cured with great difficulty. Gen.
Hamley tells of sentries who, on being
relieved, yet stood stock still i'm
movable, speechless. and staring fixed
ly into vacancy. In some cases, after
the man had been removed this sort
Of fixity would remain for hours.

Red-haired Italians are fairly nu-
