SEES TWO CENT PHONES.
Great Eastern President Says Rates
Should Be Lo1ger.

The announcement made by Union N Bethel
general manager OF the New-York Telephone Com
pany that public telephone rates would be reduced
next June or July o cents call. created great
deal of interest in view OF the fight which the
Great Eastern Telephone Company. the new indie
pendent company. is making to gain foothold in
New-York In reply 10 Mr.. Bethel President D. A.
Reynolds Of the Great Eastern Telephone Company
said yesterday:
The idea of the Bell telephone people voluntarily
reducing rates is funny. They never made a con-
cesson in rates in their whole existence until
forced to do so by formidable competition We have
forced them TO cut their rates everywhere we have
met them, from Illnois TO the Atlantic seaboard
They reduced rates in Philadelphia because they
were forced to do so by the Keystone
The first reduction they made in New-Eork was
last MAY, two months after obtained our fran
ch!se and they found meant business and could
be bought off
This second reduction follows victory last
Saturday before Attorney General Mayer. We are
not through with them yet. I expect TO q
two-cent rate in greater New-York before we get
through.
There is more net profit in two-cent telephone
rate in New-Y ork than there is in five cent fare
to the traction lines in the CITY, We have sixty
thousand telephone contracts to-day in New-York,
and getting new ones at the rate of one thou
sand day.
