Cooperative Telephones.

The cooperative telephone system
established at Grand Rapids, Wis.,,
should be- brought to the attention of
the public 1t seems that the city has
enjoyed service that is not only eff
cient but remarkably cheap. The CON-
pany was organized in 1896 with q
capital OF $1,000, divided into shares
OF $50 each. Any person could become
q member of the combination by SUBJ
scribing for one or more shares and
by leasing one telephone for each
share of stock. Tie company was
thus to be controlled by the telephone
renters and for their sole benefit. A
writer in the current issue of The Mu-
piclpality says the company now rents
300 telephones and has increased it's
capital stock to 100000 The rents
are uniform, being established at first
at 81 so per month for business houses
and 81. so tor residences, and after six
months dividend Of one GER cent a
month was declared. After eighteen
months the rates were reduced to 50. %
and Sl.00, and the dividends were in
creased TO Il per cert month. The
net cost Of service to each of the rent
ing stockholders shows a cost of 1924 a
year for business houses and 81 per
year for residences. Let any town
having a service on the non CO opera.
tive basis come forward with a better
showing than this. Next to actual
municipal ownership and operation,
private co-opers tive telephone com.
panies would seem to be easily the
best.-The Independent.

Banks of Venezuela wouldn't Cash

Willemstad, Island of Curacao, Ian.
4.-There is a financial panic at Ca
racas.
Yesterday afternoon a large number
OF small traders and private depositors
went together to the office of the Bank
of Venezuela for the purpose of ex-
changing the banks notes for silver.
The bank refused to exchange more
than twenty dollars worth of notes for
any one person, and at o'clock in the
afternoon closed it's doors. The panic
continued. Bills issued by the bank
are now selling for so per cent. OF their
face value.
The leading firms at Caracas, not
withstanding the present situation,
have presented no notes for redemp-
ton, as they are all interested in sup
porting the bank.
A martial paynnent to the troops was
made yesterday, but it is not believed
that these payments can be continued

that the government shall be given
the power to lease for sixty years up

Is no danger of concentration of own

THE CROWN PRINCESS
Is WANTED BACK.
saxOny's Royal Family Is willing to
Forget.


Vienna, Jan. 4.-Reports have been
received here from sources closely con-
nected with the court of Saxony of a.
possible reconciliation between the
Crown Princess of Saxony and her
husband. The family of the Crown
Princess are especially concerned with
the Princess unborn child, desiring
its birth to occur under conditions per-
uniting of proper Identified ton, and
to prevent possible substitution, which
it is supposed the princess might at
tempt If the Crown Princes family
attempted to claim the child.
The Crown Prince is reported as even
now unwilling to abandon the belief
that the unborn child may be his own.
While King George angrily insists that
his sons faithless wife be cast adrift,
the Crown Prince places no obstacle in
the way of a reconciliation if his wife
should desire to come back. 1t is nat
urally to be understood, according to
report, that 1t is impossible to permit
the Princess to return to Saxony and
become Queen, but the suggestion is
made that she reside in retirement near
the frontier, where she could see her
children occasionally.
No effort will be made to negotiate
with M. Giron, who is regarded as a
raw student, but it is thought that
the Princess might be induced to ac-
cept the foregoing proposals on ac-
count of her love for her children.

TRIED TO SAVE DREYFUS.
Du Patty de Clam Talks About the
Hum be rfs

Paris. Jan. 5.-The Temps has pub
lished an interview with Col du Patty
de Clam on the articles published in
the Gaulois by CASTOR Pollonais. the
well known polemist, in which it was
asserted that the colonel recently made
deposition before the magistrate in
vestigating the Humbert case to the
effect that the archives of the general
staff contain documents showing that
the Humberts were active in trying to
save Dreyfus.
Col. du Patty de Clam confirms the
accuracy of NJ. Pollonais' statements.
He adds that he was struck during the
Dreyfus affair with the activity of the
Humberts in behalf of Dreyfus. He
says the former was specially active
in 1897, when everybody whom the
Humberts could command worked hard
to save Dreyfus. What the Humberts
wanted was money, says Col. du Patty
de Clam, for money gave all the in
fuence in behalf of Dreyfus, and the
Humberts were able to set many
springs at work.

TRAIN WRECKED ON
STILLM0RE AIR LINE.
Engine Turned Over and Engineer
Miller Hurt.

Miller Hurts
Wadley, Ga, Jan. Aust as the
StllmOre Air Line passenger train
was rounding a curve that is within
the corporate limits of Wadley the To-
comotive struck some obstruction that
caused the entire train to leave the
track. The locomotive turned over.
Engineer Miller was the only one Sc
riously injured. He was unable to
jump safely before his engine turned
over. His injuries were given medical
attention here.
Conductor Battle did not escape I'M
hurt, but his injuries were confined to
bruises on the head. None of the pas
sengers was hurt.
The accident occurred at $40 O'Clock
tonight. 1t would have been more
serious had the train not been running
at reduced rate of speed on account
of being within the corporate limits.
A wrecking crew is now employed
in repairing the damage. The cars
are being replaced on the track, which
will be open for traffic tomorrow.
The cause of the wreck is not now
known. The matter will be investi-
gated by the officials.
