TELEPHONE MEETING.

The Railroad Commissioners we're
here yesterday, for q hearing on the
petition of the Clarendon Telephone
Company for permission to increase
it's rates.
Commissioners John G. Richards
and Frank w. Shealy were present,
Mr.. McDuffie Hampton being absent
on account of sickness.
The Telephone Company was rep
resented by Mr.. j. G.. Strauss, of
Sumter, and the subscribers were rep
resented by Mr.. Charlton DuRant.
The hearing was held in the Court
room, and lasted several hours. A
large number Of subscribers were
present.
Mr.. Strauss contcnded that the
Company should be permitted to
raise its rates upon several grounds.
That the stockholders should receive
a fair return upon their investment:
that the rates should be the same as
are paid by other towns under SIM
liar circumstances; that the more
subscribers the Company had, to
each individual, the more the service
was worth, and that the cost of ma
terial and equipment had increased
to such an extent tnat it was but
iShI tIlt1I HlSHcT rate should be
charged.
He contended that the rate now
charged in Manning was less than the
prevailing rate in towns it's size. He
asked that the Commission fix the
rate at $500 for business phones,
$2.0o for residence phones and tolls
for adjoining stations at the rate of
one cent per mile for three minutes
conversation.
Mr.. DuRant contenoed that in the
majority Of the towns IN the State,
about the same population, the rates
were. lower than here, and that if
the increase was allowed, the rate
would be great deal higher than the
remainder of the State. He also
showed by the sworn statement of
the Company that in the past three
years 1t has paid two dividends of Ii
per cent, and one Of ten per cent.
and after charging off about twelve
hundred dollars to depreciation, left
still surplus.
He ridiculed the idea that the Com
pany should be allowed to charge y
rate in accordance with the worth
of the service to the individual sub
scriber.
Both sides submitted to the Com.
mlslon mass of documentary evi-
dence and statistics. The Conission
TOOK the mater under advisemcnt, and
stated that a decision would be an.
hounced as early as possible.

BURSTIN BOILER
JARS ORANGE3URG
Near Miracle Wrought When Nobody
is Badly Injured in Terrific
Blast

Orangeburg, Nov. 28.-What is
unanimously considered little short
OF a miracle occurred here today
shortly after noon when the boiler at
the Orangeburg steam laundry ex-
rloded and the two ends Travelled
through the air in opposite directions
about half block. The remarkable
part lay in the fact that no one was
seriously and, it is said, only orc
chold slightly, injured. The plant had
closed down for dinner and the steam
was rather low.
Goes Through Clear Space.
From what could be learned, when
the boiler exploded the heal arose
20 considerable height and started
III the direction Of Russell street. For
tnnately it headed for an opening
about fifteen feet wide, between the
brick garage Of Crum Brothers and
The small wooden store of w. r..

ing three stops, striking a fence, the
ground ana corner Of the frame

through this opening into Russell
street. Here it landed, - oh re-
luctantly, for it il tol : wit
hcSSeS that the WanIcr N"ad
seemed inclined to rs, ~ too
much steam had been C..
Little Damage Dvuc.
The other end landed near the cor
ner OF Calhoun and Windsor streets,
ana evidently succeeded in getting
mere through open space, for no Sc

or the employees Of the laundry live,
was damaged to some extent by hot
water and mud thrown up. Small
1amage was done in several places
along the routes taken by the parts
~ the boiler by fire falling, but
these were, quickly cxtinguishcd
Whilc the realization of what
might have been the result left room
iGr littie other than serious thought
ABOUT the occurrence, it is said tnat
on hrSt hearing the terrific explosion,
shaking houses for some distance
around, the conjecture of some was
mat one of the huge guns used in
the European war was being tested

BOYCOTT ON EGGS
HAS Been STARTED
IN new YORK CITY
HOUSEWIVES ARE DETERMINED
TO BRING DOWN THE PRICE
OF THE HENS PRODUCT.

New York, Nov. 28.-New York
city's fight to reduce the high cost
of living began in earnest today with
a boycott on eggs by thousands of
housewives. This was followed with
direct appeal by the National
Wilson for the regulation of the
with the egg boycott there was a
break in the price of turkeys of from
to 5 cents a pound.
Virtually every branch Of the mu-
nlclpal government was at work to-
day in an effort to find a solution to
the food problem. A statement is
sued by Israel Feinberg, president of
the board of coroners, declared that
"the present high cost of living is
directly reflected in an increase in the
number of suicides, deaths from lack
of proper nourishment and birth con-
troll"
Looking for Remedies.
The eliminating feature of the
days activities was the passage by
the board Of aldermen of a resolu-
tion providing that the committee on
general welfare be directed to report
as early as possible ga practical plan
for investigating sucn conditions,
with view of adopting such ordi-
nances, recommending such legisla-
tlon, or taking such steps as may be
best calculated to remedy tahe evil"
At the same time the department
of health was instructed to make a
thorough investigation Of storage
warehouses.
Commissioner of Weights and
Measures Hartigan announced that
Mayor Burns, Of Troy, president of
the Conference of Mayors of the
State of New York, would come here
tomorrow for a conference with
Mayor Mitchell and Mr.. Hartigan to
devise "a comprehensive, united pro-
gram to conserve the food supply of
the State and keep the price down"
Movies Join Crusade.
Cooperating with Commissioner
Hartigan in extending the boycott on
eggs, he said tnoight, were 700 mo-
tion picture theatres in the greater
city. These houses will until further
notice display the following notice on
their screens:
"Smash the egg gamblers-join the
egg boycott. It's the man higher up
not the retailer. Practice economy
in use of eggs: Buy only for aged,
lnfirm and children. Decrease the
demand and watch the price come
down. It's up to NDu."
Sixty-five cents Of every dellar paid
by the consumer for food goes To
the middlefaan, according to John J.
Dillon, commissioners of the New
York State commission of foods and
markets.
