PHONE TRUSTS BOOST | INRATES IS CESED ~"” BYP_S, BOARD ORDER’ pares | Company Must Restore Tariff Raised Under Regulation * Aimed at “Frank” Evil. ALBANY, July 9—The New York! Telephone Company, under a ruling | of the Second District Public Service | Commission to-day, will have to re-| store the rates to thousands of its gubscribers, which were raised a few ‘weeks ago. The commission recentiy fesued an order aimed at public of- ficlals and others who enjoyed re- @uced or free telephone rates. The company, taking an advantage of this vuling, which was not intended, raised ebarges to thousands of subsoribers who had flat rates, including more than 1400 apartment houses and clube in New York City. ‘The commission etated that the original order was aimed at the prac- tice of giving free or reduced rate telephones to favored individuals in such as village, town and city officials. It was so phrased, however, that the telephone campany was enabled to insist on the | raising of a large number of rates throughout the State. ‘The telephone company, as an in- stance of this, in one community where it had less than 6,000 sub- scribers served notice that the rates in 1,900 cases would be raised. The commission says there is “a suspicion” that a large number of people have been having free phone service in return for aiding the com- panies in getting franchises. It adds: “Whether or not such a suspicion is justified, it seemed to the commission that In fairness to the public at large the practicé of more or less indiscriminately giv! free telephone service to local officials throughout the State should be stopped.” The Medicinally Per: LAXATIVE Internal Antiseptic LIVER REGULATOR and REMEDY tor CONSTIPATION WAP6 ore free trom narcotics or bad after-effects,- Gentle, Soothing, Healing; & Tonio to the Me yb pur ai Wool Crash FOR MEN AND YOUNG worst 20 WILL CLOSE Hand Tailored Suits FOR MEN AND YOUNG MEN, 33 TO 44 CHEST. oe en ee STORE CLOSED ALL DAY SATURDAY Franklin Simon 8 Co.
