phone Company Makes
Material Cut in Rates
5000 PRIVATE TELEPHONES

tions have ben made by the Delaware

been reduced from s7s TO S72 per year
The rate for extension phones has also
been cut from S1.OO to 80 cents per

in a corresponding degree reduced by
the lengthening OF the time for the

charge was 10 cents for three minutes
or fraction thereof the future charge
will be Is cents for FIVE minutes or
fraction thereof.

ever, In the rate for residential tele-
phones they costing S24 per year.
Object Of Company.
1t is the object OF the d. & A. T. & T.
CO.. to reduce its rates at intervals
when IL is possible to do so. Beyond
the actual running expenses and fair
interest on the money invested. the
company has no desire to accumulate a
large surplus of capital. With this in
view a sliding scale Of rates will be
adopted when possible, and further de-
creases in rates are anticipated. This
decision win be made effective despite
any opposing lines.

ating in Wilmington and the imme-
dlate vicinity 5000 telephones 5000 Of
which are residential phones. Whining

senting taxes for the ensuing year, and
in the same period Collector Sayers de-
posted about 100000. The collections

Been Sent Him.

City Solicitor Townsend has approved
and sent TO the Mayor for his signature
the contract between the city and the
Wilmington Sanitary Company for the
