Il was admitted today by F. H

The main feature OF the proposed
changes IN the public service o

messages used IN one year reaches
2,1OO, when the charge Of additional
messages Is increased from q cents
each TO 4 cents each. BY 1905 the
charge will be IS per hundred instead
of 81 a. now.
Business houses, whose messages
run far above 2,l00 IN q year, will, OF
course. have to pay pretty stlffy for
increases.
Branch Exchanges.
For private branch exchanges the
minimum annual rate IL increased
from SI20 per year to 1892 per year.
The increase Is caused by charging 8
cents per message for 200 local mes
sGEes per month instead OF 2h cents,
a. now in effect.
The rate for local messages from
public pay stations 10 TO be increased
from 8 cents to 10 cents 70 reach
period OF ave minutes or less. The
estimates Of the telephone experts is
that this will increase the earnings
Of the company $4,000 q year, half
OF the total amount which the people
OF the District must pay.
Telephone officials tell the Utilities
, Commission that there is q tremen-

President Bethel today stated that

cost $500, 900, and another building
for housing the hundreds Of cir
operators being brought here, thai
will cost thousands OF dollars.

, have more money from the public, al
though this has been in the air SOM
