Telephones Destroyed.

Nearly 1000 telephones of the
old Delmarvia style were destroyed
one morning last week in Whining
ton. Employees of the Company
threw the instruments out of the
third story of the building at
Seventh and Orange streets. The
metal and wood of the boxes were
separated by the violent contact
with the street. The metal parts
we're sold for junk while the frag-
ments of the wooden portions were
carried away for kindling. The
recently installed automatic seavice
ofthe Delmarvia company rendered
the old instruments useless.
