DAYTON, O., Oct. :n.-(Speclal Corre-
ivondence of The Bee.) Teie phone competl
tion In Dayton. O., Is particularly Interest
ln, for the reason thnt the new company
In the city has the s-cond largest auto
matlo Installation In the country and the
automatic equipment I" put forth as a
great economizer. Furthermore, the Home
Telephone company of Dayton has lie own
building erected for the particular service
for which It Is uned. The company Is a
local organisation and started Into busi
ness under what the promoters were pleased
to lerm the most auttpiclous conditions,
This new telephone company, which has
had Its plant in operation Jut one year,
promised the telephone users of Dayton
improved service at lower rates and the
local Investor a good profit on their In
vestment.
Inquiry among the business men of Day
ton, many of whom are financially inter
ested in the new company, elicits the gen
eral Impression that the local service of
the Home company is as good as that of
the Bell company, while the long distance
service of the old concern Is superior.
Borne express a preference for the auto
matlc system, believing that a user makes
his own connection quicker than the ope
rator on the manual system does. In press
ing the Inquiry to details, the Investigator
brings from the user the statement that
the Bell local service is more extensive
than that of the Home company and for
that reason more valuable. To sum up
the effect of the competition on the tele
phone service of Dayton, It may be said
that In promptness of connections and dis
tinctness of transmission one service Is no
bettor than the other; that the Bell local
service is nearly twice as extensive as the
Home: that the Bell has the greater num
ber of toll line connections and has the
advantage of exclusive connections with
the Cincinnati exchange.
Extent of Home Service.
II. P. Miller, general manager of tho
Home company, says the new exchange ha
3.600 stations in service, although his latest
directory shows but 3,121, of which 1,407 are
buslnejta and 1,714 are residence 'phones.
The latest directory of the Dayton Bell ex
change shows 6,077 stations In service S.1B
business and 3.&1 residence.
Taking the figures from both directories,
which are Issued about the same time, a.i
a basis for calculation, we find the business
men of Dayton are paying a higher rate
per connection In the Home exchange than
they are payinj In the Bell exchange, as
follows;
Rate
No. of Maximum per corv
Btatlons. Bus. Kate, nectlon.
Bell ti.077 t',2 1.0118
Home 3,121 40 $.0128
The residence rate, per connection. Is also
higher In the Home than In the Bell ex
change, as follows:
Rate
No. of Maximum per con
Stations. Res. Rate, nectlnn.
Bell 6.077 $3S $.059
Home 8,131 24 .077
As a matter of fact, therefore, the tele
phone users of Dayton are paying more
for the borne service than they are for
the Bell, although the rates, per telephone
Instrument, are much higher in the Bell
exchange. This point may be brought
out more clear! by quoting from a state

telephone company of Ashevllle, N. C, as
follows:
Lesson of Experience.
"The public needs to be reminded that
this is a business of furnishing telephono
service and not the renting of telephone
,ln,strur.("ns. The telephone subscriber
has an Ineradicable belief that the larger
the exchange the lower the rates per
station should be, and as a reason for
that fnith he quotes the Indisputable busi
ness axiom that the larger the business
the lower the cost per unit. The average
telephone manager will reply that axiom
has no application to the telephone busi
ness. Both are wrong. The axiom applies
with full force to the telephone business.
but the subscriber makes a wrong applica
tion of It. He makes the telephone instru
ment the unit, whereas the true unit is
the telephono connection. If the company
was in business of renting telephones, as
one company rents bicycles, another sewing
machines, and another roller skates, then
the more telephones it rented, the lower
it should make the rental, and, in that
case, a telephone should cost less In At
lanta than In Hendersonvllle. As a mat
ter of fact, however, a telephone In At
lanta costs three times, and Is worth more
than ten times as much as one In Hen
dersonvllle. The difference grows out of
the fact that the Atlanta subscriber uses
telephone thirty times a day, while the
Henderson subscriber uses his twice. The
Atlanta subscriber pays $64 a year for
telephone service, but his conversations
cost htm only two-thirds of a cent each,
while the Hendersonvllle subscriber, at $21
year and with 'only 126 connections, pays
3 cents for each of his conversations. Doing
larger business, the Atlanta exchange
can do business at a less rate per con
versation unit, but It would soon bankrupt
itself if It atemptcd to do business at the
flat rate per Instrument charged in Hen
dersonvtllle." .
And so it Is with the Bell exchange at
Dayton doing a larger business, it can
do business at a less -ra to per connection
than the Home exchange charges, but it
would soon bankrupt Itself If It attempted
to do business at the Home rate per In
strument. And It should be remembered
that a telephone Is of value to the user in
proportion with the number of connections
It affords him.
Some Pol n toil Comparisons.
While the rates per connection of the
Dayton Home company are higher than
the rates per connection of the old ex
change. Its rates are a great deal lower
per station or per subscriber. As the Home
exchange grows in extent of service Its
rates per connection will naturally decrease,
and by the time its number of connections
is equal to the number of connections In
the Bell exchange, Its rates per connection
will be conslderabl less than the Bell
rates per connection.' To Illustrate this
point let us prosume that the Home ex
change grows to the present extent of the
Bell exchange and put the figures In tabular
form, as follows:
No. Max. Bus. Rate Per
Stations. Rate. Conneet'n
Bell 6,077 $72.00 $.0118
Home 6.U77 40.00 .161
Now, the question arises. Can the Home
company afford to give a service of that
extent at the business rate of $40 per sta
tion, making the rate per connection only
a fraction of a cent? If not, then it must
Increase Its rates per station and the tele
phone users of Dayton will have gained
nothing, so far as rates are concerned,
from years of competition.
Mnnt Homo Company Raise Hates f
As a matter of fact, the present rate
per station of the Home company, with
only 3,121 stations or connections in serv
ice, are Insufficient to produce an Income
sufficient to cover the proper charges
against the business. The capital stock of
the company amounts to $1,200,000, of which
$0)0,000 is preferred 6 per cent dividend
stock. The bonded debt of the company
is $JW),000 at 6 per cent. General Manager
Miller is authority for the statement that
the plant represents an investment of
$826,000, which Is a little less than the total
of the preferred stock and the bonds. Mr.
Miller la also authority for the statement
that the operating, maintenance and gen
eral expenses amount to $15 per station
and that t per cent on the whole Invest
ment Is a proper charge for depreciation.
Tb,e annual charges against the business,
therefore, may be stated as follows:
Interest on bonds, t per cent on 8250.-
000 $ 1' 500
Interest on preferred stock, $ per
cent on $t0,uoo Soooo
Expenses, $,121 stations, at $15 each.. 4dM5
Depreciation, 6 per cent on s.',ooo. ... 41,'auo
Total $13o!mb
The possible Income from 3,121 stations is
aa follows:
1,4(17 business telephones at $19 $r.2i
1,714 residence telephones at $24 41.136
Total $a7,416
After allowing the uncollectable rentals
and toll line receipts, the probable lnro.ne
may be about $100,000, or more than $3o,0iio
a ear less than the total charge against
the business. From this showing it seems
than an advance In rates Is absolutely
necessary to make the Dbyton Home Tele
phone company a self-sustaining business.
An advance In rates to the level of the
Bell rates In Dayton Is necessary to
make It a fairly profitable business. And
with such an advance seemingly Inevitable,
what have the people of Dayton gained
by the telephone competition! What la
the ultimate compensation for placing an
additional expense of about $50,000 a year
on the telephone usera of Dayton during
the period of competition or "doublo" tele
phone service? What does the city get,
ultimately, for having Its streets torn up
for additional conduits and for having its
streets encumbered with additional pole
lines? H. J. Q.
SCHEDULE 0FGRAIN RATES
New Tariffs on Shipments Origination;
West of MUklsslppI Effective
November Seventh.
A new schedule of grain rates on ship
ments originating west of the Mississippi
river will go Into effect November 7. The
Burlington is the leading mover, but It Is
probable that other roads will become In
volved. The new schedula will dlscontinua
the proportionate rate between Omaha and
Cincinnati. At present the rate to Cincin
nati from this city In 15 cents, 9 cents being
allowed for the haul from the river to this
city.
The present rate Is considered too small
for the haul and a rate Is promised of 10
cents to the river and 9 cents from the
river to Cincinnati, making a rate of 13
cents. This will make an increase of 1 cent
for the haul west of Chicago and I cents
for the eastern haul. Such a rate is re
garded a fairer proportion of the rate be
tween the points named. It means the
abolition of the through rate and the adop
tion of locals Instead, which are regarded
more satisfactory.
An advance all along the line Is looked
for after the close of navigation on No
vember B. Local terminal lines have as yet
received bo intimation of the raise, but
the rate usually follows the closing of the
water routes. The closing of the lake will
advance the seaboard rate both by way of
St. Louis and the Chicago gateways. Tho
local to be adopted by the Burlington Is an
Independent movement originating at Chi
cago and is made to overcome a short pro
portional In the territory affected.
BARTON BUYS JOBBING TRACT
Pays Twenty-Seven Thousand Dollars
lor Five Lots In Wholesale
District.
Guy C. Barton has just completed the
purchase, through George & Co., of five
lots on Howard street between Eighth and
Ninth for the sum of $27,250. The deeds
were recorded yesterday morning.
What Mr. Barton proposes doing with the
property Is not given out, but the lots
are In the wholesale district and it is un
derstood he considers them most available
for the erection of business houses. On
the lots, or some of them, still stand old
landmarks In the shape of dilapidated
buildings once the commodious dwellings
of prominent Omaha people. These will
be removed as soon as Mr. Barton deter
mines to replace them with new structures.
One of these lots was school board prop
erty, another was the property of Abra
ham Martin, another tho homestead of
Theodore C. Livingston, another that of
John C. McGinn and still another lot be
longed to Lawrence Rath, a resident of
New York.
The deal has been pending for some time,
but is now complete, and the transfers,
deedu, etc., are on tile In the court house.

P. K. Ilcr Tells of Formation of Land

Promoters and Purchase
of Tract.
The Omaha, Lnro'.,i and Beatrice Elec
tric railway has formed a land compnny
with the Intention of bullrtlnor a manu
facturing suburb to Omah: ut S irpy Mills.
Something HUe 500 acres of land has been
acquired and factory sites will he donated
to companies willing to locate in the west.
P. E. Her wns In Papilllon all Saturday
morning getting options on additional
property and closing up unflnlt4:.?d nego
tiations. He has been retieent so fsr as
to the plans of his company, but now ftels
things have reached a stage where he can
talk. Mr. Her rays:
"I became connected with this line some
thing like a year ago, although I had pre
viously been approached regarding it. At
first I was inclined to think It was a pa
per scheme and paid very little attention
to the matter, but after a thorough In
vestigation and becoming acquainted with
Mr. Hurd and some of the other parties
Interested, who are located in Akron,
Cleveland, Pittsburg, St. Louis and New
Tork, I became convinced they meant busi
ness and were experienced men In that
line with plenty of means to carry out the
enterprlso and that this1 road would do
Omaha and the( state a vast amount of
good. These roads In the east are quite
popular throughout the country and with
merchants who, as was remarked by an
eastern friend of mine having consider
able experience with them, would not do
without the lnterurban electric roads even
If obliged to build themselves. This road
would be of untold advantage to the pack
ing houses and stock yards.
"Our relations with the Omaha Street
Rallwny company, as well as with a num
ber of the railroad companies entering
Omaha, have been and are very pleasant
and cordial and they have shown a will
ingness to meet us half way.
feck More Manufactories.
"As to the object In the purchase of so
much land: Fur the last two years we
have labored under great difficulties- In
endeavoring to get manufacturing Indus
tries to locate here, tho great objections
being the high cost, of land, water nr.d
power, together with the enormous taxa
tion. We have lost a great many manu
facturing concerns on theso accounts, they
having located in Iowa, reoria, III., and
other places. Large Omaha jobbers are
now carrying stock in warehouses outside
of the city.
"I tried some years ago to get the city
council to pass a resolution providing that
no tax, or at least a very small one, should
be assessed upon the Improvements placed
upon real estate by manufacturing enter
prises until their business waa thoroughly
established, but without result. This Li
done in Peoria and a great many other
eastern cities, which have by this means
built up quite large manufacturing cen
ters and, I believe, should be done In
Omaha.
"Under these circumstances the need of
building up a manufacturing city in close
proximity to Omaha Is very apparent.
After talking with the commissioners of
both Douglas and Sarpy counties, who as
sured me they would do everything In their
power to encourage such enterprises, I
concluded If we could build a manufactur
ing center on or about the line between
these two counties, where plenty of water
could be obtained, It would be of great
importance to this section.
Means of Promoting: Industry.
"Getting the land, as we do, at a price
which will allow us to donate the ground
for the erection of their works, according
to the nunmbcr of people employed, with
the saving In water rents and city taxa
tion, and cheap living for their employes,
we could offer great advantages to manu
facturing enterprises locating there. With
this railroad, making the distance . from
Omaha approximately live or six miles and
a service between there and Omaha of not
to exceed ten or fifteen minutes for both
passengers and light freight, It would be
bo convenient for the manufacturer and
his distributing house that lie would be as
well off as if in the city Itself.
"With that end in view, I encouraged
my eastern associates to organize a land
company In connection with their railroad
company, which, after an lnvestlgatlqn of
the property, they were well pleased to
do, telling Mr. Hurd and myself to go
ahead and use our beat Judgment and they
would stand by us, giving us, however, the
privilego of connecting with this enter
prise such other Omaha parties as we Baw
fit to work in harmony with us.
"This will make an ideal location for
flour, cereal, glucose and starch mills, as
well as distilleries, tanneries, glove and
shoe manufactories and kindred enter
prises, having an abundance of water,
sewerage facilities and railroad connec
tions. "Other railroads no doubt will be glad
to connect themselves with the onterprise
and put in trackage facilities, some of
them, in fact, having already signified
their willingness to do so,
"I think this will bo of great benefit to
Omaha and believe inside of two years
there will be u great amount of money
expended at that point. Property is too
high priced In Omaha and Bouth Omaha
for manufacturing industries to purchase
and we cannot afford to see any more of
these enterprises locate elsewhere In pref
erence to Omaha. Negotiations are already
under way looking toward the location of
some large manufacturing enterprises on
this property."

- This mammoth elevator, and one of the
first Independent elevators to be erected
In Omaha, is slated for completion by April
1, 19U6. Work on grading the Great Western
elevator and mill sites will not be com
pleted, according to Mr. Stickney, much
before Christmas, but the new elevator will
not be delayed by this.
Largest of Kind in State.
The capacity of the Omaha elevator,
owned by the Omaha Elevator company, a
Poavey concern, is 1.500,000 bushels, E. I.
Peck being manager. The company has
three-score Interior elevators and does not
do much business In this city. The pro
posed elevator to be erected by Omaha
Stickney capital will be the largest inde
pendent elevator in the state.
Dhjcusslng the possibility of Duluth mill
ers and elevator men moving to Oiriuhn,
Mr. Stickney said:
"I huvo been talking the matter over
with Duluth people. They nre forced to
curtail their business live months in the
year through the closing of navigation
rail rates being rather too high for profit
able all-rail business. Some of thera have
seriously considered coming here to this
gateway of the great crops of Nebraska."
"While tho president of tho Great West
ern is working fur the interests of Omaha
and his own as well, It might bo well,"
said a member of the Grain exchange, "lor
the Union Pacific and Burlington to take u
frerii lease of interest in this town and
Nebraska farmers. These roads are in a
position to help along the good work by
giving to the grain shippers from Interior
points something like a decent adjustment
of rutes. We are paying much more than
Kansas, Iowa or Minnesota shlpp-s. Rates
from here to Chicago are 1J tents on the
luu founds, while from the Interior of
tht state they run from 6 to 16 and Is cunts
to Omaha. Of course, we do not look for
through rates, but there should be some
coiuehslou, even though the railroads are
obliged to nuke up truinloads they have
to do that with livu slock and everything
else. Nebraska lived uu adjumiutut of
