JUSTICE AFFORD ATTACKED.

 Officer Following Controversy.

Jack Sell Adminlsters whipping to
 Officer Following Controversy.
 Justice of the Peace Joe Afford was givers severe whipping yesterday afternoon by Jack Bell, who it is said is a trained nurse and who while not engaged at this. works about where gaming is in progress. The engagement is said to have taken pace on Valley street near the rear of a saloon, and statements disagree as to what the trouble started over, hu- there is one report that it grew out of an arrest. Judge Afford was taken to Hogaboom's drug store where his wounds were dressed, and later was taken home. His injuries while painful are not serious. Con- stable Carpenter made the arrests in the case and the details will be aired in the evidence adduced when the case is tried, which wiR prob ably be this afternoon.

AT THE PRINCESS.

Any act that is called back fifteen times is certainly some good" isn't it. Well. that's what happened at the Princess last night to Dick and Dolly Marriman. The audience sim ply wouldn't let them off the stage and MT. Marriman had to sing every thing in his repertoire, in which his wife joined him, before those pres eut concluded to give them a breath ing spell between shows.
 They are just an indication Of what the show tine fast half Of this week is. Elina Gardner. witn her cute baby limitations and songs, was also great hit, and she came back seven or eight times before the au- dience would let her depart for the nexs act. The Asaki Troupe of Jap si,ese do a wonderful act, and opening the show. they are a happy prelude for the other excellent features that follow. Becker and Howland, come dians, made one of the big hits oi the evening, and Klein ott and Nich- olson, one of the best musical com edy trios ever at the Princess dem ons irated their worth to close the bill that has not been surpassed uhis season. This is one show that the ci:y can well be proud of.

Efficiency Increased,
 Waste PreUented

The proposed arrangement between the Western Union, the Anglo Amer icsn and the Direct U. s. companies will bring the eight cables of the three companies under one operating con- trol. The consequent increase in effectiveness and economy will place the Western Union in a position to offer certain advantages in cable service not now enjoyed by the public.
 The other way open 10 enable the Western Union to make such im- provements and introduce such new services as it proposes 10 do, would be to lay new cables. This would seem to be the height of folly. Duplication of the existing trans Atlantic cable facilities at a cost of many millions, when there are more than ample facilities for all business, would put an unnecessary financial burden upon an already fully burdened business and would probably postpone the reduction of rates or introduction of new services.

The Trans- Atlantic Cable Situation and Competition

The trans Atlantic cable situation is as follows:
 The Mackay group of seven ca bles. including the German cables, owned by or worked in physical con- nection with the telegraph lines of that company form one system.
 The French cables comprise an in- dependent system, using both the Western Union and the Mackay land lines for their United States connec- ton.
 In competition with these is the Western Union group of cables, eight in all, owned by three separate com panies, two of which are British companies owning five of the eight cables. sve t T
 7ioo onIy Of the British owned cables Terminate in the United States and all of then, are entirely depen- dent on the Western Union for their connection saitk any telegraph system. or for their reaching any centre Of business and are notU lUorked srcIu- sipeiy, SO far as business IS concerned. tptfh the Western Union

Proposed Modification of Existing Arrangements

A provisional modification of an arrangement which has existed for many years has been reached between the Western Union Telegraph Com pany, The Anglo American Cable Company and the Direct U. s. Cable Company, under which the cable sys- tems of these companies now worked exclusively in business connection with each other, but operated and maintained separately, will be oper- ated in direct physical connection with each other and with the Western Union land system.
 Two objects are to be attained by this arrangements:

 Second, the introduction of nero forms Of seryice to the advantage Of fhe public.

Limited Business Hours
 and Idle Facilities

As at present carried on, the trans Atlantic cable business is practically all fash service, i. (. instantaneous. Owing to the difference in time, there are only a few business hours of the day common to both sides and during these hours at least 75& Of the cable business is done. This is demon strated by the accompanying chart
 In the interests of international business nothing should be done to interfere in any way with the so-cailed flash or instantaneous service, and :he lines should be kept clear to ac- commodatc such messages during the few business hours common to both countries; but to continue to confne the cables to this class of service, as at present, will utilize only about as z of the existing capacity of millions of property and places on that limited service all the capital, maintenance and operating charges.

Monopoly of Gable
 Business Ir1poSsibLe

There is no cable monopoly pos sible. The three systems-the Western Union, the French and the Mackay--will continue to exist.
 The Mackay Companies is a hold ing organization with no physical property, but exercising through stock ownership, lease or contract, operat- ing control of various companies owning land lines and cables which make up the Mackay System. Through this control all the various properties are operated as one system to great advantage in service over what could be given by these same companies if operated separately.
 The French cables form another system.
 The Western Union System, under the proposed arrangement for one operating control over the present segregated units, will be enabled to make two distinct advances in the trans Atlantic cable business:
 I-BETTER SERVICE. This will be insured by more efficient and econom- ical working resulting from single direction over the operations of both cables and land lines.
 a-PUBLIC ADKANTA GES. The greater part of the cable capacity has been and is now unutilized. Ii will continue to lie dormant and unutilized under existing conditions and tradi- iions. The Western Union purposes to make these wasted facilities useful to the public by means of new kinds of cable service.
 In addition, the Western Union in- tends to nstionalize it's land lines by opening them to all trans Atlantic cable companies.

ed the two wires to see whether
the current, the ordinary house
light voltage Of 10 was on, not
being aware that by mistake he
and Hoover had connected the
wires with the heavy street
light current of 2200 power.
The shock was like lightning
stroke and he was probably dead
the instant it struck him, and
it required & strong blow on the
wires with club to release his
hands from the deadly current.
Physicians were summoned,
but he was past human aid, and
the body was removed to the
home of his stricken mother,
Mrs. Sallie Kuykendall, in
Washington street.
Young Kuykendall was
twenty-one years of age and
besides his mother leaves two
brothers and three sisters.
