Atkins, acting president of the com- pany, to answer questions regarding the company’s efforts. to_acquire tha ennsylvania Sugar Refining company’ at_Philadelphia. James M. Beck, counsel for the com- pany, ineffectually appealed 1o the committee not to go into this slibject on the ground that former officers ot the company are awaiting trial in No- vember on a charge of conspiracy Lo acquire the Pernsylvania property and that their interests would be preju- diced if the committee prejudged the case. 2 Chafrman Hardwick and -the com- mittee overruled this objection. They held the committee was directed to In- vestigate every phase of thé company’s operations, and there was no intention of prejudging the case. AMERICANS SHOW UP WELL AT HORSE SHOW. Army Officers . Take No Prizes, But Give Good Exhibition. Lotden, June 12—The most interest- ing event at the opening of the inter- national horse show at Olympia today was the appearance in the ring of the American arm officers. _Although the performan-cs of their horses in the open jumping competition over the course were by no means perfect, Ma- jor Frederick S. Foltz, Fifteenth cav- alry, and other American officers ex- pressed - themselves as satisfied with the results attained. The competition, they said, had at least given the horses and the men training and had accus- tomed the horses to the ring, so that wea it came to the military contests, which was the main object of their coming over to London, they would be in_a position to do their best. The Americans failed to win prizes, but some of their performances were exceedingly commendable. Several o the Americans took part in the morn- ing, afternoon and evening events. The attendance today was not so large as usual, counter attractions at Ascot and various entertainments kept many away.

Boston, June 12.—The New Eng- land Telephone and Telegraph com- pany, it was announced today, is about to inaugurate a sweeping reduction in rates, to take effect during the comi- ing symmer and fall, and to be applic- able to all exchanses outside the Bos- ton and suburban districts. This ac- tion follows the recent decision of the Massachusetts highway commis- sion affecting the Boston and sub- urban districts, by which the tele- phene company’s znrual revnue was reduced between $300,000 and 540 000. - The. company officials believe that the reductions announced today, which it Is estimated will take from its rev- enue 3$200,000 additional, will not be pure loss, as they are expected to cre- ate an increased volume of business.
