P.S.C. GIVES PHONES
$S2,OOO,OOO VALUE
Upstate Commissioners
Split Difference Between
AppraisalS.
COMPANY'S COUNSEL
WON'T CONCUR YET
Chairman, However, Believes
Acceptance and a Lower Rate
Schedule Are Near.

The upstate Public Service Commits
sion placed a valuation of $4,000 900
on the property Of the New York Tele-
phone Company yesterday. Thus a
medium was struck between the $780,
100000 claimed by the company and
the S66,OO0,000 fixed by Professor Ed
ward W. Bemis and accepted by the
legislative committee.
Both investigating bodies agree,
however, that telephone tolls should
be reduced and the income cut $1,000
900, giving fair return on the in
vestment and satisfying those who
complain that the rates are too high
It was expected that yesterdays
meeting Of the commission would re-
suit in an amicable settlement of the
question Of valuation, upon which the
reduction OF rates depends. While the
company gave no intimation of its at
titude, Chairman Van Tantvoord was
optimistic that the findings would be
accepted. In this event a final order
and definite schedule of lower rates
might be expected within a month.
Amicable Settlement Deferred.
The amicable settlemeIc expected
was not reached. Much pickering pre-
coded the announcement Of the com
mission, and John l.. Swayze. general
counsel to the New York Telephone
Company, refused to forecast specih-
cally the action of his corporation.
In spite of this. the commission an
nounced its findings, as follows:
I'VE believe that $50 900 900 is the
valuation of the property, and per
cent a fair return. In reaching this
conclusion we did not fail to take into
consideration the payment by the COM
pany of Az per cent on the gross re-
turn to the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company as rental for the
instruments. We find it is excessive
by so much as it exceeds an annual
rental of 81 an instrument, which we
think a fair charge.
"As a result Of these findings it is
our determination that there shall be
reduction in the operating revenue
Of $3,00O,000."
Commissioner Emmett then injected
controversial element into the ses-
sion by announcing that he disagreed
with the valuation fixed by the ma
jority He thought SSS,OOO,OOO or $780,
600 900 would be nearer the proper
figures, but agreed on cut Of from
$1,000, 900 to S3,OOO.OO0 in operating
revenue, and declared that the ques-
ton was largely one Of mathematics,
Following this ripple Chairman Van
Santvoord announced:
"Our announcement Of the valuation
stands if there Is no more evidence
We now invite the New York Tele-
phone Company 10 submit new
schedule embodying the proposed cut
and we will consider it together with

MANY Of those men who are besieg-

of 3O6 West Seventy-eighth Street, yes
terday in explaining her idea of a
university Bundle Day Mrs.
browne finds that the universities and
colleges in New York and vicinity are
willing TO cooperate in collecting bun
dies to be distributed among the needy
unemployed
"The appearance OF these men is
enough to prohibit them from getting
employment" said Mrs. browne. "One
man told me the other day that he was
a master mechanic and was sure he
could get work if he could obtain shoes
and trousers.
"A boy told me he was so shabby
that people drew away from him on
the street. That boy was well edu-
Gated and a fine looking young fell
