issued an injunction forbidding pay

over to the trust.
B. G. Hubbel resumed the stand
when the hearing of the government
suit against the A. T. & T. Co. re-

Competition in the telephone
business has been the only check
that has prevented the Bell interests
from forming an absolute monopoly
and hosting prices of service to stu
pendous figures" said Mr.. Hubbell
''The Bell company takes great
profits in the large cities where it
has practical monopoly by boosting
rates as it sees fit. The money taken
from big telephone users meets the
loss suffered in smaller communities
where competition is keen.

that the club is without funds with

and the plans of carrying out the con-

stated that the log Of that route would
be published in the Blue Book within
the next few months.
As the meeting broke up, Phil Young
said: 4 DO not know what is the

Williams, of Baltimore, won the decis-

WlHams's terrific infiShting gave him
the victory, although Campi rallied in
the last round and administered more
punishment than he had inflicted in all
the other rounds combined
There was not a tame round in the
20. Both lads were marvels Of ag-
e-ressiveness. Several times VIII
liams overwhelmed Campi with his
rushing tactics and had the San Fran
ciscan hanging on the ropes, but Cam
