GLASS MIGHT TELL
SAYS HIS SUCCESSOR
Telephone COmpany's New Man.
ager Would Call Convicted
One as Witness
Explains High Rental Charge OF
Instruments on Basis of
Cheap Repairs

Louis Glass, the official of the Pacific
telephone and telegraph company un-
der conviction for bribery. was named
last night as a suitable witness for the
investigation being conducted by the
board of supervisors preparatory to the
fixing of local telephone rates, a matter
vital to the 10000 subscribers in San
Francisco. Glass was nominated by his
successor General Manager E. c. Brad
ley, who said that he believed Glass
might know something about the re-
ceipts of the corporation in San Fran
cisco for the year 1905.
The supervisors, acting as commit
tee of the whole, and with Supervisor
Murphy as interlocutor, were endeavor-
ing to find out an approximation of the
receipts of the local telephone company
for the year 1905, agreed upon as a
year of normal service. In the absence
of Mayor Taylor, Supervisor Paul Ban
croft acted as chairman. The tele-
torney e. S. Pillsbury; E. c. Bradley,
vice president and general manager. c.
w. Burkett, chief engineer; w ]. Phil
lips, division superintendent, and others
PORE OVER FIGURES
The early evening was spent in
arithmetical diversion. Burkett was
questioned on the value of equipment
T. r. Sherwin. auditor of the company,
testified regarding the payroll of the
company, giving figures and statistics
and showing that the San Francisco
system bore but Is per cent of the gen
eral clerical expenses.
The question of why the Pacific tele-
phone and telegraph company pays a
yearly rental of $1.65 per instrument to
the Bell telephone company, when the
articles can be purchased outright for
$3.50, was probed into by Murphy.
Bradley explained that it was cheaper
for the local company to rent the in
struments because when that was done
the Bell company kept them in repair
and was always ready to aid the COM
pany in improvements. He did not
think the method was profitable to the
Bell company, he said.
But the Bell company controls 81
per cent of the stock in the local corr
poration and controls the policy of the
directors in the matter of buying or
renting instruments" insisted Murphy
"A minority controls the board" said
Pillsbury, but it has never done any
thing so atrocious as to cause the Bell
company to overthrow it"
Never decided to buy the instru-
ments outright queried Murphy.
Bradley gave the net receipts of the
Pacific telephone and telegraph COM
pany for 1905 as s1.760.oO0. He said
that the returns from the separate dis
tricts could not be segregated Mur-
ply wanted to get records from out OF
town districts and deduct their total
from the grand total to get the San
Francisco figures, but Bradley said that
was impossible. for the several district
records were for the most part In San
Francisco at the time of the fire and
were destroyed. Murphy thought that
San Francisco's percentage of the total
profits would have been about $4,000
000. 2
Mr. Glass might know about 1t,
suggested Bradley. 'I.ll see him.

SAYS WOMEN IN
SCHOOLS BIAS BOYS
Prof. G. E. Rugh Tells Club
Members Female Teachers
Are Too Numerous

Professor c. E. Rugh, who has been
a school teacher for many years, told
the women of the California club yes
terday that one of the things that is
wrong with our public school system
is that there are too many women in it.
THAT may seem a strange thing to
say here" said Professor Rugh, whose
topic was the training of citizens in
public schools, but it is true. In civic
matters womans viewpoint is not the
same as a mans, and it never will be-
And, consciously or unconsciously, the
teacher impresses that viewpoint upon
the men of the future. Again, when
1T is a question of personal influence
our boys respond much more quickly
to one of their own sex. A boys ideals
are formed by watching some one
whom he not only admires but hopes
to initiate
Professor Rugh would not have girls
taught entirely by women and boys en-
tirely by men, but believes that chill
dren should have both men and women
teachers He assured the women of
the California club that they could do
no greater work in the world than by
establishing a labor bureau of some
sort that would occupy children for
the hours that they are not in school
and teach them the value of sustained
labor.
He also spoke of the insufficient
number of teachers that carry on the
work the overcrowded classes and the
large results that parents expect from
short hours. He asked that children
be taught to respect the teacher and
the institution, and stated that one of
the most serious phases of modern
life was the contempt in which the
child of today holds his instructors, his
school and work of any sort.
The occasion of Professor Rughs ad-
dress was the first civic day, which will
be kept hereafter by all the clubs of
the federation March 10. Other speak
ers yesterday were DR.. A. A. dan
coma, whose topic was the new San
Francisco, and Miss Julia Morgan, who
made an earnest appeal for artistic
public buildings in this city. DR.
d'Ancona spoke of the proposed diago-
nal streets that will cross the water
front, relieving Market street of the
larger part of the present heavy traffic
He spoke of the possibility otherwise,
of an overhead trolley being necessary,
alluding to it as one of the greatest
possible detractions from a city's
beauty and charm. DIR. d 'Ancona's view
of the overhead trolley was enthusias-
tically applauded. An informal chat
followed these talks.
Some of those present yesterday
were Mrs. Arthur Cornwall; Mrs.
James Orr president of the California
club; Mrs. e. c. Hurff, president of the
San Francisco district of women's S
clubs; Miss Elizabeth Ashe, manager of
the Telegraph hill neighborhood
house; Miss Alice Griffith, Miss Sallie
Maynard. Mrs. L. v. Bradley. Mrs. E. L.
