EXPRESS COMPANY ASKS TIME.
Cannot Comply with New Interstate Com
merce Law by August "a.

Washington, July 1S.-An application has
been made to the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion by C. H. Crosby. vice-president and general
manager Of the United States Express Company.
for an extension of the time that company will
have, under the new interstate commerce law, to
file its rates with the commission.
BY the provisions OF the law, express conpa-
nies must have on file with the commission by
August q next their rates Of charges. Mr..
Crosby says it will be physically impossible to
file the rates by the time specified in the law.
In his petition he says:
From an Office Of the United States Express
Company to another Office OF the United States
Express Company, there are, in round numbers.
some six million rates to be Transcribed from va
rious records and put into such shape as to be
available for the purposes Of the commission
From an office of the United States Express
Company to an Office Of some other express COM
pany than the United States Express Company
there are probably 100000 more rates.
Mr. Crosby says the company has engaged all
possible competent men to do this work, but
that it is not practicable to complete 1t under
six months.
This is the only petition Of the kind the Inter-
state Commerce Commission has received, but
others are expected. No decision has yet been
reached by the commission on the request for
an extension Of time

INDEPENDENT PHONE BID
Shaso Says His Company Would
Give 81, 900, 900 for Monopoly.

John NJ. Shaw, president OF the Atlantic Tele-
phone Company, said yesterday he did not be-
lleve the Board OF Estimate would seriously
consider the proposition for telephone uonop-
ely made by the New York Telephone COM
pany. His company. he declares, would will
lingly pay S1.o00,000 year for such a monop-
oily as the New York company wants on pay
ments averaging less than 100000 a year. Mr.
Shaw said:
In the first place. our counsel tell us that the
board has no legal right to make such a con-
tract--a contract 20 guarantee a monopoly OF
the telephone business to any one company. AS
sumo for the sake OF argument that the board
has such right the price offered by the COM
panies IS ridiculously inadeQuately. will per-
sonally pay 70 the city Of New York for a mo-
nopoly 20 sell toothpicks larger price than the
New York telephone companies have offered for
a monopoly OF the telephone business.
IL the city has the right TO sell monopoly Of
the business TO any bidder, the city should in
justice to itself get good price. Now. the At
lantic Telephone Company will pay the city OF
New York 81 100000 a year and supply all the
departments with free service If the city OF
New York will guarantee to the Atlantic Tele-
phone Company a monopoly OF the telephone
business under the same terms as the New York
Telephone Company demands as the price OF the
payment OF 100000 a year.
When we made our original offer 20 the city Il
was with the expectation OF fighting competi-
don from an existing company. Had we ex-
pected to bid for a monopoly. we should almost
have been ready to let the city name its own
price.

him and his sister had been deposited with
Henry NJ. FIatteau It is alleged that Mr.. Flat
teau turned the papers over to Cooper when this
accounting was demanded.
Mrs. Gottleib demanded the papers from her
brother. She alleges that he refused to give
them TO her or to her counsel unless she left her
husband and took her two children with her

JOHN w. GATES GIVES BULL1sH VIEWS
Quoted as Saying That Advance in Stock
Prices Is Likely.

John w. Gates, who was in the city yesterday
for the first time in several weeks. was quoted
in an interview expressing bullish views on
the market outlook. saying in part:
The iron and steel industry is stronger to-day
than IL has been in two years. Consumption is
increasing rapidly and Bessemer iron is scarce
article. Foundry iron conditions are also strong.
The business on the books Of the various steel
companies represents many months activity for
the mills. The tendency OF steel and iron prices
is upward, and we can look far enough ahead
20 forecast that there will be decline in steel
prices for eight months or a year at least.
AS to the stock market, reports have been
circulated that have been short Of stocks This
is entirely wrong. have been doing nothing to
speak of in a speculative way for weeks past.
] still hold my investment stocks and will con-
tinue TO hold them.
The excellent crop reports which are becoming
better every day, the large and increasing earn
ings OF the steel and iron companies, railroads
and business enterprises in general will eventu-
ally influence higher prices for stocks. but We
can look for this usual midsummer dulness for
some time to come.
