THE TELEPHONE COMPANY.
What President Tyler Says About Re

What President Tyler Says About Re-
 auctions in Prices.
 Regarding the rival telephone com pany, which, it has been reported, pro- poses to do business in this state, Pres ident Tyler, of the Southern New Eng land company, when asked about the matter yesterday, said he had no in formation whatever save what he had read in the papers. He did not even know whether a corporation had been formed.
 |, Asked about the proposed reduction in the price of telephones furnished by his company, he said.
 Within the next eighteen months we shall be able to make decided reduc- tions in the prices all round. In the last ten years we have reduced the cost |of telephones fully 100 per cent, and during that time have largely increased the number in use. Ten years ago there were only 5000 or 1000 of our tel ephones in use in the state, and now there are S5,000. In this city alone there are now 5000 telephones in use, or at least double the number of ten years ago. We are constantly extend ing and improving the seryice.''

AMERICAN DRUMMERS IN 20.
 LAND

German and Austrian salesmen are hotel without seeing one or more of them.
 Representatives of American houses travelling solely for selling purposes and not with the purpose of locating agen- cies, should at least know German, though I have seen salesmen sent out from the United States with no knowl- edge of any foreign language whatever, r,iying entirely upon paid interpreters at each city. Such interpreters are sel- dom to be relied upon.
 The representative speaking only his native tongue sometimes forms unde- sirahle acquaintances on the trains solely for the purpose of speaking English, which may result disastrously to his employer. To cite case in point two American traveling men during the past season met on the train an en- tertaining gentleman who spoke English perfectly and was thereby of much as- sistance in travel to my com patriots and moreover took a great inte! est in American commercial affairs. Learn Ing LnGlr ueSCl1dClOn LO US HIS uOlle town, Warsaw, this man was of still greater assistance, and the upsnot was that at least one of the Americans was prepared to turn over his Russian busi- ness to swindler, practically upon the mans own representations as to his financial standing and general com mercial worth, though he gave as ref erence the name of a certain count, one of two brothers who, through loss of fortune, etc.. has become rather lax and has lent himself to various schemes which do not bear close scrutiny, while the other brother is thoroughly reputable in every way and has an excellent reputation. The travelling man obtained a report on Count, which was upon the brother in good standing and was thoroughly satis- factory in every way. Corrected in- formation was given my compatriot before any actual financial damage had been done.-Consul Clarence R. Slocum, Warsaw.

ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS.

Until recent times no other vice-pres- ident ever was shown any especial fa- vors by the president. Hobart held something of the same relations to Me Kinley that Van Buren did to Jackson. He was frequently called into cabinet consultations. In the social functions of the capital he sometimes acted in McKinley's place. But the preferences of this sort which have been extendEd to Vice-President Fairbanks are alto gether unexampled. When Roosevelt started out on his vacation he asked Fairbanks to represent him in address ing the International Railway congress, which was about to assemble at Wash ington. At Rooseyelt's request; Fair banks, at a formal function at the White House, nsar the close of that congress, received it's members and did them the honors just as if he himself was at the head of the nation. No such distinction as this was ever before conferred on the second officer of the government by the first officer. At Roosevelt's request, Fairbanks has just represented him at the opening of the Lewis and Clark fair. Here is an era of good feeling between president and vice-president which sets an example that all future heads of the nation should follow. In some directions, at least, the government in recent times has improved over it's forerunners.- Leslie's Weekly.

CONTROL OF INSURANCE.


 The message which President Roose- welt sent to congress on the sixth of last December contained this urgent recommendation: .,.-..-
 'sThe business of insurance vitally af- fects the great mass of the people of the United States, and is national and not local in it's application. 1t involves a multitude of transactions among the people of the different states and be- tween American companies and foreign governments. I urge that the congress carefully consider whether the power of the bureau of corporations cannot constitutionally be extended to cover interstate transactions in insurance"
 The recommendation passed unheed- ed. A bill, it is true, for the regulation and supervision of insurance was intro- duced early in the session by MT. Nor rell of Pennsylvania, but it went to the pigeon-hole. Later in the session Sem ator Dryden, an insurance man, intro duced a bill to establish in the depart ment of commerce and labor an insur- ance division, but that measure never emerged from the committee on judi ciary. There was at neither end of the capitol that careful consideration of the question which MT. Roosevelt recom- mended and urged two months before the first public appearance of the Equitable scandal.

Present Prison Methods Compared

freSent Prison Methods Compared
 With Those of a Century Ago.
 Connecticut, for the fifty years prior to 1927, confined her prisoners in an abandoned copper mine near Simsbury. From the sides of a shaft, which went down about one hundred feet, drifts ran into the hill. There, in rooms built up of old blanks, and with heaps of straw for furniture, were crowded to- gether from thirty to one hundred con- victs-men who had failed to discern that the words of Juvenal, Dare to do something worthy of transportation and a prison, if you mean to be any body" are not sound advice for the Land of Steady Habits" The feet of these luckless ones were fastened to bars of iron, their necks were chained to the beams above, Disease and pes tilence, cruel and degrading punish ments, frequent outbreaks, days of -draiver, toll and nights of infer nal pandemonium were the chapters of the history of those years. Part of the thorough-going nature of such punish ment in that it was certain to destroy all hope or even chance of reformation in this world, and so insured we'll lnerited continuance of expiation in the next.
 The characters civilization and pro- gress of people may be measured by the nature of the punishments inflicted by it's lawh.
 As corollary of the two preceding paragraphs it is interesting to note that now at the Connecticut State Pris- on, the session of tha night school is just closing for the summer. Every prisoner in the place, who has desired or needed to learn to read, write and cipher has attended. These men have been vlimbing over the enclosing walls of ignorance-walIs to which there are no returning footsteps.
 Garfield said that 1t is cheaper to re- duce crinla than to build jaiIs. The state seems to be worrying less over what her prisoners have done, than over what they may do for themselves and for her when released. Most of the scholars in the prison school have been anxious to learn; some of them have been eager. All without exception, who have interested themselves and worked, have made sound progress The few who went out for a change 0 air got just what they were looking for. A horse may be led to water but can not be made to drink. Those who have ears to hear will hear; those whose ears are shaped differently will doubt less fulfill their destiny. When we were young and went to school, most of us went because we had to. The boy who loved his spelling book wasn't of much account for anything else. Here 1t is different. The writer's most un- pleasant school experience has been re- fusing requests for Just few min- utes more. "-Monthly Record, Pub lished by and for Inmates of the Con- necticut State Prison.

 NEW YORK.

NEW TURK.
 Importation of foreign gasoline auto mobiles is a we'll established industry in this country, but the importation of eectric vehicles built abroad is a new branch of the trade. The first of the GalIia electric carriages ever brought to the United States were cleared through the customs on Friday, and wsre run in the streets of New York on Saturday.
 They were consigned to Count Ar mand de Gontant Biron and Bernard Maurice Dufresne, both of whom are interested in the SOciete L'Electrique of Paris, France, manufacturers of the Gallia. They imported the two models to exhibit to their friends here. Both carriages have landaulet bodies by Million-Guiet, and are extremely smart in apparancs. The rear wheels are driven by two separate motors; there are eight speeds up to twenty miles an hour, and the batteries will carry the machines sixty miles without recharg- ing. The double motors are claimed to permit of shorter turns around corners. The motors are suspended so as to rem der them independent of both chassis and axle, giving the carriage easy run ming and smooth riding qualities.

CHINESE TASTE IN TRIPLES.

Generally speaking, the coast cities use foreign spirituous, vinous and malt products in about the proportions indi- cated. American beer is popular, but some German and considerable Danish beer are imported. Whistles are large ly of English and Scotch origin. The wines represent almost every nation that produces wine, but the European brands very largely predominate. be- lieve that Aericans can develop good trade here in whistles, can increase their sales of beer greatly, and that they can especially better their trade in wines. The consumers include not only the large and increasing foreign population, but the wealthier classes of Chinese who are taking to foreign bev- erages. When Chinese official gives a dinner nowadays his tabe will show an array of forsign wines which speak volumes with respect to future trade. The Chinese people, as a whole are be- coming more and more prosperous eve- " year, and their ability to buy such products is constantly increasing. One indication of this is apparent in their trade in native wines. I see no reason why foreign goods should not replace such native products to an indefinite extent. California wines particularly ought to have the cream of the market here, and I believe that little pushing of the trade by personal representation or otherwise would have immediate and gratifying results. The success due to efforts of agents for American firms so far indicates the great extent of the field yet untouched. The demand for wines is for sherry, claret, hook, cham pagnes and port in the order named.- Consul George E. Anderson, Annoy.
