TELEPHONE SYSTEM
MAKING CHANGES

"Give me Ill please, Central, says
the local or long distance telephoner.
"The number has been changed to IL
X; / will give you that number, 2"
comes the ever-pleasant response even
though it does seem unkind because of
the unexpected change in numbers.
But the city of Salem is growing, es.
pecially in telephone service, and so in
the last month alone over 40 numbers
were changed. There are about $3.50
local subscribers and 800 rural for tel.
ephone service. New equipment has
been added at the local office with the
rapid increase of patrons, and the wir-
ing system is being changed according
ly. According to the terms of those
who know, the distribution is being
centralized" and the number of
"iacks per station" has been changed
to equal the number of Jacks per
line" and the long telephone numbers
have thus been avoided and lne short
er ones retained with designating pre-
.xes. Inc new telephone directories
viii go to press July Is and will be
ready for distribution about the middle
of August.

LASSEN ERUPTIONS
GROW MORE VIOLENT
outburst Today One Of Most Violent
AS Usual. 1t Is Followed by Heavy
Thunder Storm.

Redding, Cal, July 2.-Mount Lassen
erupted violently again at $3.50 a. m.
today.
The outburst was abou, the equal of
yesterdays, which was the fiercest up
to that time since the crater became
active.
Reports of the latest eruption came
from the forest station at Mineral. 1t
could not be seen from here on account
Of the haze, which attributed to min
ute particles of volcanic matter afloat
in the atmosphere.
Today's outburst continued in full
violence for about 30 minutes but at
noon the crater was still suffering
smoke.
All who were in the crater S vicinity
at the time of yesterdays eruption
were believed to nave reached safety
In spots on the slope, those who have
assembled it said, ashes are hip deep.
A thunder storm following each erup
tion seems to be the rule and there was
heavy one last night.

AUSTRIA KEEPS WIRES HOT.

Austrian attempt to inflict punishment
for an act which it is charged in

Though official confirmation was
lacking, the report was generally cred
tied that Austria has demanded the ar
rest and punishment by Servia of the
persons here said to have been inyolv'
ed in the assassination conspiracy. AT
the same time the Servians quite open
ly rejoice at the archduke's S removal
they bitterly resent, as a national in
suit, the implication that an extensive
plot to kill him was hatehed in theil
capital. Not only was Francis Ferdi

people thought it should hay

EFFORTS TO SAVE
BOYS LIFE FUTILE
Body of Paul Reamer Recovered After
Being in Water Ten Minutes, But
Could Not Be Resusitated

All efforts to resuscitate Paul Ream-
er, the 12-year-old son of DR.. E. f.
Reamer, of 1905 Court street, who was
drowned yesterday afternoon in North
Mill creek, were fruitless, although the
pulmotor of the Portland Railway,
Light & Power company was rushed to
aid as quickly as possible. The pull
motor arrived about 20 minutes after
young Reamer was taken from the wa
ter and every effort made to bring him
back to life.
Paul was in swimming in North Mill
creek along with his brother Frank
He had learned to take few strokes a
few days before but that was all. The
alarm was given by the brother, who
hastened home about two blocks away
P. A. Jones recovered the body from
the water, which was about five feet
deep at that spot.
Under the direction of Dave Pugf
and DR.. Reamer, the boys father, the
crowd of people watched the efforts tC
bring the boy back to life. After q
false hope had been raised at one time
the work was given up. 1t is believed
that the throat of the lad was cloggeG
up, which hindered the successful op
Grafton of the machine.
The funeral will be held Friday morn
ing at 10:30 clock from the residenc,
on Court street. Rev. Richard N. Avi
son will conduct the services. Buria
will be in City View cemetery.

Vera Cruz, Mex, SuIy 2.--Generals
Carranza .and Villa having fallen out,
refugees who arrived here today said
President Huerta might not attempt
an immediate escape from Mexico City
after all.
Tuesday, it was stated, the dictator
seemed likely to make dash for safety
at any minute. Then he heard of the
Carranza.Villa clash and that Villa s
advance had ceased, and evidently
made up his mind that he had been
granted reprieve. At any rate, there
were no signs when the refugees left
that he was planning hurried depart
ure.
Conditions in the capital, it was said
were frightful. The fuel supply is al.
most completely exhausted. The poor
are starving. Many shvps have closed
The price of the necessaries of life are
almost prohibitive.

increase Of sl,40o,96l over the previous

gross being offset largely by operating
expenses. which increased Sl.l6l .O9o.
The surplus for the year, after paying
soj3.826 interest on rcfunding bonds,
which have now been converted into
stock, was S5,3l5.704.
With this interest saved, the report
said. the surplus earning would have
been equivalent to 7.s7 per cent on the
stock. if the issued stock on July !,
after conversion, namely S14.52O.OoO,
had been outstanding during the year.
H. 1913, the company. earned 9l6 per

On June Q. 1918, the date of closing
the books for the dividend, payable

Brooklyn Rapid Transit stockholders
was 3,709. On the same date of 1914
there were 6.3l9, an increase of $50,
