 Although the administration finally has succeeded in getting the currency bin before the senate. other ob- stacles which threaten 10 delay the measure are apparent On December i. the senate will set aside the eur rency bin and by agreement take lip the bill giving San Francisco the rieht to secure q water supply from the Hetoh Hetchy valley.
 On December the senate has agreed 10 take up a bin giving the president authority 10 build a gov ernment railroad in AlasHa. This may be set aside in favor of the cur rency bill.
 Senate leaders were moi inclined to predict when the currency bill might be finally acted upon, but it was de clared certain that it's consideration would run well into next year, prob. ably up to about the frs Of February.

DOWNED THE BELL
 TELEPHONE SYSTEM
PATRoNIZED THE BELL SYSTEM IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN SUE.
 FlcIENT PATRONAGE.
To Prevent 1t Being Entirety Driven District.

Chicago. Nov. 22-One prosperous i independent telephone company was represented today by a witness fo. the government in the hearing hera in the antitrust suit against the sAerican Telephone and Telegraph Company
 Edwin D Schade. general manager of the Johnstown, Pa, Telephone com pany. and vice president of the ln- dependent Telephone association, tes. tified that his company had forced the Bell system to the wall in his territory. MT. Schade said he had urged a few persons, including one of his own directors, to subscribe for Bell service in order not to have the trust" business reduced so far that it would be driven out of the West ern Pennsylvania field altogether,
 The telephone rate between Johns town and Pittsburg is 40 cents for three minutes, said Mr, Schade Be tween McConnellsburgh and Pitts. burg, over which the Bell lines have no competition, the rate, he said, was S1. 45 for three minutes The distance is about 75 miles in each case.
 MT Sohade complained of de structive competition" by the Bell system. charging that the trust Of fered free service on some local lines and had reduced toll service to almost I,nothing" He was cross-examined by E. s. Pillsbury of San Francisco, rep resenting the Bell system,
 Your company gets about s year more from each subscribed than the Bell does. Your rates are higher than the Bell rates You have TITS subscribers where the Bell has only 2.100 in your territory. You pay a 12 per cent dividend and have large sinking fund and first class equip ment. In other words, you are in a highly prosperous condition?" said MT Pillsbury
 We are" replied Mir Schade.
 Then what do you complain of?" We object to unfair competition, | said Mr. Schade. He said his com pany was operated more profitably | than the American Telephone and Tel egraph Company, because of the com plicated nature of the American com pany's business. which made its oper ating expenses unduly heavy.
