THEODORE JENKINS MISSING.
Has Not Been Heard of Since the I'll
of May.


The friends Of Theodore Jenkins, an en-
ploye at the Baltimore and Ohio ticket
office at 18th and New York avenue are
considerably worried over his mysterious
disappearance. He has been missing since
Tuesday, May T. No theory can be adj
vanced for his unexplained absence, as his
affairs In connection with his duties at the
ticket office were in the best Of condition
and he had apparently no trouble worrying
him. Tuesday morning the It'll OF May, he
started. ostensibly for his office. between
the hours Of Z and o'clock, and since that
time nothing has been heard Of his where
abouts. He was an employe Of the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad at Baltimore for
nearly fifteen years, working in the ticket
office for five years. About year ago he
was transferred to this city.
1t is not thought that he had any enemies
In this city and he was very popular among
the employees Of the ticket office here. He
was about twenty-five years of age. His
parents reside in Baltimore and are of the
oldest and most influential families of the
monumental city. The affair was reported
to the police last night

EFFECT OF DECISION.
Telephone Company to Appeal-Meet-
ing Of Subscribers TOniGht.

The decision of the Court Of Appeals in
the telephone case, which reverses that OF
the Supreme Court Of the District and
maintains the constitutionality of the act
of Congress limiting the rate to be charged
for telephone service in the District, is, OF
course not in line with the view Of the law
as held by the telephone company. It is
the intention Of that corporation to make
appeal to the Supreme Court of the
United States. The representatives Of the
company say that they will not be satisfied
now until decision is had from the court
Of last resort.
One of the effects of the judicial decision
was noted in the transactions today on the
Washington stock exchange, when the
stock of the Chesapeake and Potomac Tel
ephone Company declined two points In the
quoted prices.

Association will be held this evening at 8
