THIRTEEN BILLION WIRE CALLS
Twenty million Miies of Wire Cur.
ried Mesasges tn 1912.

WAsHIE6roS, March s,-There were
l3.735.65s.c45 telephone calls In this coun-
try during 1912. according To statistics
made public to-day BY the Census Bu-
reau. In 1907 the total was estimated At
l0.+0o. 1885 while IN 1906 Il was only
5.o7o.55a.563 calls.
While some companies keep an ac-
curatc account OF the number OF mes
sages.' says the report; ''as d rul. no
record Is made from which accurate sta
tistcs can be compiled. 1t IL estimated
that there were i3.735.G5s.2i5 MESSAGES
or talks sent over the telephone lines OF
companies which had an inc me OF at
least $1,000 during 1912. a message may
represent either a few words or long
conversation. and therefore docs not In
dictate the extent to which the equipment is
used.
1T was impossible TO obtain even an
estimate Of the number OF conversations
over the private branch wires and the
party lines which do not require inter-
connection at the public or central ex-
changes. No estimates were made con-
corning messages for the l.iV2.s44 tele-
phones on the lines Of small companies
which had an income OF less than $1,000
during 1912.
Messages for these smaller systems
were included to Some extent In the census
of 1902, therefore the statI.tics of mes
saxes reported for the three years are not
strictly comparable and they should not
be considered as representing the total
amount Of business transacted by tele-
phone systems OF the United States during
1912.
"In 1919" the report continued, "lhe
length OF wire used on the telephone lines
Of the United States amounted TO 202is :
32s miles. This represents a gain OF
l6.3%7.S75 miles during the decade. or \
increase OF 3i3.2 per cent There were
S,729.592 telephones In use, or 6,35s,54s
more than the number reported for 1902,
an increase OF 26s.2 per cent.
"The number OF telephones reported ny
thee Bell telephone system Increased by
1878 per cent from 1909 to 1907 and by
GA per cent. from 1907 to 1919. Durni,
the same periods the number OF telc.
and systems increased by 1894 per cent.
and 22 per cent. respectively.
in 1902 the Bell system controlled 90. !
per cent. Of the wire and $50 per cent of
the telephones in use. In 1912 this sys-
tenn controlled TAT per cent, OF the wire
and $50 per cent. OF the telephones.
THE total proportion of the wire mile
age and the total number of telephones
owned by the Hell telephone system have
increased during the decade. Will, tho, e

the Cause.

WARRINGTON, March S.-President Will

Judiciary in whipping the Administration
antitrust measures into shape
IT was said to-day by friends of the
Administration that the President will
ask Chairman Clayton and other menu
bers Of the committee to come TO the
White House this week In order that he
may fad out the cause Of the delay.
According TO present Indications the
bearings on the bills Will run along In
definitely. This is what is worrying the
Administration leaders. They seem to be
OF the opinion that Chairman Clayton
should fix II date for the conclusion OF
the hearings and then get to work with 4
view of reporting the bills to the House.
President Wilson deli, his message
on the trusts At "A joint session OF Con-
gress on January 20 last. A few days
later the antitrust programme of the

FRENCH EXPORT TRADE
SHOWS SERIOUS DROP
Real Financial Depression Evil
denced by Statistics of
Foreign Trade.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence of The Star
PARIS, June 19.-The French customs
department has issued the statistics of
the export and import trade of France
with her colonies and foreign states for
the first four months of the year. These
figures show altogether as compared
with the corresponding period of 1913. an
increase of nearly $4,000. 900 in imports,
but a decrease of over $1O.OO0OOO in ex-
ports.
The increase in imports is almost en-
tirely agricultural products and raw
manufacturing material, owing to the
bad harvest in France. while there is a
slight deficit in the import of ready
made goods. The export Of manufac-
tured goods shows a decrease of $4,000
oGo, and foodstuffs dropped by over ST.
100000 which practically balanced the
increased export of raw material.
Bad Showing for April.
The most important feature, however.
is the change for the worse in April. The
figures all around. as compared with
1919. show an increase of over s5.OO0,OOO
in the Importation of raw industrial ma
terial, but deficit in the import OF
manufactured goods and alimentary
products. making the total import in
crease little more than half million
For exports. however. the only increase
was a paltry 100000 in raw material.
while there was decrease getting or
for FIVE millions in manufactured arti-
cles, and one of s3.J0O,OO0 in foodstuffs-
the total drop during April amounting
| to S9,OOoO00.
In other words, French farmers have
seen their exports dwindle by q per cent,
which is very serious outlook. espe-
cially when taken in conjunction with
| the deficit in the revenue from taxation
during the same period. All point. in
deed, to a real economic depression.
These figures are scarcely calculated to
render easier the task of the chamber
| to find means of balancing the budget
with an already avowed deficit Of ovei

FEAR FORESTER Is DEAD.
Louis Margolin Missing in Sierra
National Forest,

FRESNO Cal, June 27.-Louis Margolin,
chief inspector Of timber estimation. fifth
district of the forest service, apparently
has been swallowed up in the wilderness
of the Sierra national forest in this
county, and the belief is expressed by
members of the forest service that he
may have persisted.
1t is feared that Margoln may have
been killed in the heavy electric storm in
the mountains several days ago or that
he has been drowned in one of the
swollen streams.
Scores of rangers have been engaged in
search for him.
The home of the missing man is New
York city, where his father, mother and
brother live. He is a graduate of Har-
ward and was trained in forestry at Cor
nell.
