Two Alarms of Fire.

AS a proof that the automobile fire
apparatus of this city. is useful IN the
winter time as well as summer, the Fred
elick fire department was called upon to
answer an alarm on Sunday and Monday,
and on both occasions good time was
made.
Sunday about noon fire broke out IN
one ofthe houses owned by former Mayor
John Ed. Schell, and tenanted by Thos.
Leakin, Colored, in Locust Alley, between
Fourth and Fifth streets An alarm was
given and all OF the companies respond
ed. The Juniors, however, extingulshed
the blaze before the arrival of the other
two companies. The fire started il a
bed on the second floor and would have
spread rapidly, but for the quick action
of the department.
Smoke coming from the home of Mar
ion Little, on West Patrick street, caused
an alarm to be sent in Monday morning
about 9 O'Clock. Upon investigation it
was found that on account of the heavy
wind the smoke from the stove had been
driven back into the kitchen. Ali of the
fire companies responded.

Farmers Association Wins Vic
tOry.

A general reduction of the telephone
toll rates for Frederick County to take
effect on April Ist, 1914 was ordered on
Tuesday, March 3rd, by the Public Serv-
ice Commission
The order was filed in the case of the
Frederick County Farmers Association
against the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company of Baltimore. The
association alleged that the toll rates
were excessive: that the charge for ex-
cess time was discriminatory, and that the
toll service be abolished and a fiat
county rate established. The case was
heard on MAY 10th, last
The commission declined to substitute
the flat county rate for the present toll
service, but declared that the toll rates
were unreasonable and excessive. The
charge between Emmitsburg and Mount
Airy war ordered reduced from 20 to Is
ceutS, and the charge between Emmits-
burg and New Market and between En-
mitsburg and Brunswick was reduced
from IS to 10 cents, and the charge be-
tween all other exchanges was reduced
from 10 10 S cents, provided that the
present grouping of exchanges remains
in force.
The commission also ordered the rate
for excess time for the long distance
messages was reduced to cents per ex-
cess minute.
The company is given IS days to an.
nounce its intention to obey the order or
to appeal to the courts.
