Court. which reversed the conviction
and declared the law unconstitution
upon the grounds urged by Mr..
Richie. These cases are reported In
the Sth volume Of Bissell's Reports
and the Tooth volume Of u. 8. Supreme
Court decisions. In q late issue OF
Tho Chicago Magazine in an article
upon "The Up.Builders Of Chicago II
appears the following:
Frederic Town. Maryland. 10 the
birthplace Of william Ritchie. He
was born August 36, 1854. He was
schooled at Frederic College and st.
Johns College. both located in Mary
land. and was graduated from the
latter.
In 1881 he came to Chicago, entered
the law ONCE Of Hon. 8. Corning Judd
(who afterward served 40 Chicago'a
postmaster under Mr.. Cleveland), and
was admitted to the bar In 1886.
Immediately Aupon his admission the
law hrm Of Judd. Richie. & Eshel
was established. Two Of Mr.. Ritchie'a
brothers won distinction at the bar
John served In the congress and was
afterward member Of the court Of ap
peals Of Maryland. Albert, the other
brother. served upon the supreme
bench Of Baltimore. Their father was
physician. Among his regular pa
tients was Barbara Fritchie, Whit
tiers heroine, and he served as execu
tor Of her estate.
William Richie also has earned dis
tinguished place among lawyers oi
first order. His victory in the lead
ing cases OF Fowler vs.. Equitable
Trust Company, but one of many OF
his cases before the Supreme Court
Of the United States. induced the
Roosevelt family of New York to re-
tain him as counsel, and ever since
such first employment he has acted In
that capacity for the family. He rep
resented the estate of Samuel ]. TIL
den and William B. Ogden in litigated
cases involving hundreds of thou
sands, and in every case he gained
favorable decision. One Of these cases
was brought by powder manufactur
ers. and Is known as Du Pont vs.
Ogden.

have the council take action upon the

It is asserted by Aid. Britten that

devices ut work 1t Is impossible to

Hartman estate. with Kennedy Todd
and De Forest Of New York, and with
the receivers of the Chicago subway
as a body-has already begun the
work of giving genuinely cheap and
efficient telephone service to the city
Of Chicago.
In Chicago the receivers of the sub.
way have installed already more than
twenty-five thousand automatic tele.
phones. They give an unlimited serv.
Ice for $S5 a year-about one.half the
charge Of the Bell monopoly. They
give unlimited telephone service to
private families for less than thirty
dollars a year. With a full extension
of their system even the poorest fam.
lilies will use the telephones, and be
better OF at the end Of the year
through the saving Of carfare.

this new system, which 10 backed BY
Armour and the others, 10 three cents
per call, and the intention 10 to lower
this rate eventually from three cents
to one cent At one cent the pro6t
would be enormous, with the econo.

The amendment was drafted by
