to the contracting parties.
Mr.. bipe stated last night that he
had lines out for first-class FIRST
baseman. This man. II landed. will
about complete the complement OF
players, nearly all of the 1907 team
having been reserved. While no state

carry as few men as practicable. for
only In this way can high-class players
be secured and retained.
Mr.. Lipe will spend several days in
the city familiarizing himself with the
situation and getting acquainted with
the players now in town.
Manager Ralph Reeve. who succeed
ed Shaffer. Is reserved, and will prob
ably be. seen at his old position at

WON / RECOMMEND
PRIVATE EXCHANGE
Cost Of City Hall Branch to Be
Considered Direct by
Council.

a meeting Of the subcommittee on
electricity, which was constituted re-
Gently and charged with the duty OF
Investigating the ACCESSIBILITY of in
Sailing a branch exchange telephone
service in the City Hall to connect
all municipal telephones, was held
yesterday evening In City Electrician
Thompson's Office In the City Hall.
Messrs. j. w. Crews. assistant general
manager for this district, and II. T..
Norris. local manager OF the South
|ern Bell Company. were present and
conferred with the subcommittee.
There are now sorty-six stations on
direct service. with four extension
sets. which cost the city s1,1t2 per an
mum. With the installation of the
exchange 1t is proposed to add TWEEN
ty new stations. making. a total of SIX
ty-six. With this number OF. stations
Order the branch exchange system
the cost will amount to $3.75s. which
allows for the employment Of three
operators. The total cost for the same
number OF stations on the direct SER
vice. as at present. would amount to
s2.552.
Comparison Of the branch exchange
service with that Of the direct SER
vice. it was shown, is overwhelmingly
IN favor of the direct service, as with
the exchange service persons have to
call through two operators and there
are more chances for mistakes. The
committee will not make any recon-
mendations concerning the branch ex-
change service, but will report the
facts as presented with the figures
of cost for each ktnd of service.

Enemies to Injure

s Following the many other dittlculties
which have assalled Mr.. II. Z. lIechler
In again becoming treasurer of Hem
rico county, comes now the rumor that
he will find 1t difficult, II not impossi-
BILE. to give the required bond. which
will be something like 100000, 1t has
been noised abroad that acceptable per-
isonal security cannot be obtained by
him. and that the gilt-edge surety
companies are 10th to bond him. This
report. though somewhat vague In
origin, has nevertheless been circulated
throughout the city and county, de-
spite tho fact that it has been given
small credence.
4 Mr.. Hechler last night said that hav-
Ing until next January 10 execute the
5necessary bond, he had so far made no
effort towards obtaining It, and that
all reports to the effect that he is hay
ing trouble are absolutely without
5crcd!table foundation, Hc says that
