CHAPTER Xxx.
In ChrIstle's Room.


Keith swept his glance up and down
che street without results. Surely
Hawley and his companion could not
have disappeared so suddenly. They
had turned to the right, he was GER
tain as to that, and he pushed through
the crowd of men around the theater
entrance, and fastened to overtake
them. He found nothing to overtake
nowhere along that stretch of street,
illumined by window lights, was there
any sign of man and woman walking
together. He stopped, bewildered,
staring blindly about. failing utterly to
comprehend this mysterious vanishing.
What could 1t mean? What had hap
pened? How could they have disap-
peared so completely during that sin
gle moment he had waited to speak to
Fairbain? The mans heart beat like
q trip-hammer with apprehension. a
sudden fear for Hope taking posses
sion of him. Surely the girl would
never consent to enter any of those
dens along the way, and Hawley
would not dare resort to force in the
open street. The very thought seemed
preposterous. and yet, with no other
supposition possible, he entered these
one after the other in hasty search,
questioning the inmates sharply, only
to find himself totally baff1ed-Hawley

swallowed by the earth. He explored

PHONE PATRONS WILL VOTE
ST. JOSEPH MERGER TO, DEPEND
ON SUBSCRIBERS.
Managers Believe Consolidation VIII
be Permitted if People De-
eide FaVorably.

st. Joseph, Mo.-The two telephone
companies of st. Joseph-Missouri
and Kansas (BelD and Home-again
are considering the question of merg-
ing and with this end in view blank
ballots have been mailed to the sub
scribers of each company inviting
them to express themselves for or
against the proposition.
Statements have been made by the
officers of the companies that neither
company opposes a merger and that
whether or not there is to be a con-
solidation of the plants will depend
primarily upon the outcome of the
vote of the patrons.
If the returns show that a majority
of the subscribers favor one company
and a universal service, with the rates
no higher than are now charged by
the Bell company, which are slightly
in excess of those of the Home com.
pany, the matter will be taken up with
the public utilities commission. 9th
erwise, the statement says, negotia-
tons looking to a merger will be
abandoned and the existing COMPETE
tive system will be continued.
Some time ago the representatives
of the telephone companies sounded
the public utilities commission on the
question of merging the plants, but
they were not willing to give any
guaranty as to rates. Fearing that, in
the event of merger, telephone rem
tails might be advanced, the utilities
commission declined to sanction such
a proceeding.
The Missouri & Kansas company,
whose rates are the higher, has more
than 10000 subscribers in. the city,
while the Home company has about
1900. With the public in favor of
the union, there is believed to be no
doubt that the public utilities com
mission will at once authorize it.
