All of Queens County, excepting Far Rockaway, Included la a local
area with Brooklyn without toll charges.
Staten Island gives a firs ceat toll charge to Manhattan, excepting
from Tottenvllle, ten cents, and Its local rates held low.
The new rates mean a reducttea of fS, 000,000 annually In charges
for telephone service la New York City in addition to the 10 per cent
cut mado a year ago.
New rates ordered Into effect July 1 next, to remain for three years.
BOARD ORDERS FURTHER CUT
FIGHT ON
(Continued from First Page.)
ent local rates are continued where
the Company proposed to Increase,
them.
Many features of the company's
schedule, are approved by the commis
sion, including the principle of mes
sage charges beginning at S cents re
tail and scaling down to i cents
wholesale. Its sons system also la
adopted, but the tolia heavily cut
Since announcement by the tele
phone company of Its proposed reduc
tions, complaint centred chiefly on the
private branch exchange schedule.
This tended to prevent, owners of
small apartment housea from giving
their tenants a E cent telephone call
without direct lose themselves, be
cause of charges Imposed on switch
boards, extra trunk wires and exten
sion stations. In large housea the
rate would have been possible because
of wholesale uses of measages at 21-1
centa each. But In small houses. It
averaged above 5 cents.
EXPENSE INCURRED BY OWN
ERS NOT FIGURED.
The commission took the ground that
any expense Incurred by owners for
operatora or attendance could not be
considered In rate making, because
that waa either offset by value of free
interior telephone communication or
else was Indirectly charged In the
rent. Likewise the claim of large
hotels that valuable' rental space waa
given to switchboard and booths waa
discarded. Only acttlairserrlcs' 'pay.
ments to the telephone company were
considered.
Taking the company's proposed
schedule for this class, the Commis
sion cut switchboard charges, but
left unchanged the rate for extension
telephones at M per year each for the
first ten, and scaling down to .0 for
twenty or mure. As a .result they
figured out the following:
A ten family apartment bouse could
obtain under the new ratea a switch
board, one trunk line, ten extension
telephones and ,00O messages, which
waa considered a fair quota, for $270
per year, which la equivalent to 4 1.3
centa per message. The same service
with two trunk lines would cost 4.1
centa per message. In a large house
with 50 telephonea and Increased con
sumption of calls the rate would be
approximately 4 centa.
Under auch a schedule the com
mission considered that tenants
could expect five cent calls. It Is
a question, however, to be settled
between tenant and landlord, as the
commission cannot dictate the charge
that one subscriber may Impose on
persons In his house. It can regulate
the company's rates, but not the
landlord's.
TENANTS CAN SUBSCRIBE TO A
DIRECT LINE.
If a tenant Is .d.arged too much he
has the alternative of becoming a di
rect line subscriber at a t cent rate
00 messages for M0.
Aa for large botela their mesaagos
coat them considerably leas than five
centa each, ao far aa payments to the
telephone company are concerned.
The commission declined to take cog
nisance of their charges to guests.
Telephone service at 10 centa per lo
cal call la a source of fine profit to
the large hotels.
Benator James A. Foley, Chairman
of the legislative committee Inves
tigating telephones, examined the
Publlo Service Commission's sched
ule and approved It.
"While It la not as long aa that
prepared by Prof. Bemla for our com
mittee," he said, "yet It meets so
many of the demands that I think we
can accept It as the best available
under the circumstances.
"In the Bemla schedule there were
more reductions In private branch ex
change and extension station ohirges.
Also in the sliding scale of ratea for
wholesale use of messages from 6
cents down to 3ti cents each, the
Bemla schedule began Its cuts earlier.

who offered them candy and penales

MraT. Helen Bplagler, who con'ducta
the Argus Press Clipping Bureau, on

porter about this suspect. Ths family
consists of Otto Splngler, hla wife,
their daughters, Helen, fourteen, and
HUdegarde, eight, and their son
Alfred, six.
CHILDREN'S ANNOYER ELUDES
THEIR PARENTS.
"I never saw the man," said Mrs.
Splngler, "but my children told me
of him many times and I often looked
for him. He was rather old, perhaps
sixty, aa they described blm; tall,
heavily built and active la hla move

reported that he spoke to them and
to other children In the hallway, at

"Several tenants lnhla house and
othera near (by ware on ths lookout
for the man, but he was so sly we
never got" a iook at him. Ths an
noyance lasted during three or four
weeks.
"When the 'detectives bes-an ta
search for him he, disappeared, 'and'
no one has seen "his ih the' neighbor

weeks ago.
"Mra. Slibennan, the housekeeper,
told mothlrfier children had been
annoyed by the same man. I fear
that he has come back, entered the
block somewhere elae, passed over the
roofs and come dawn here. I don't
see how else the murderer could have
been In this building. I was In the
hall on this floor for some minutes
before little Leonore came In with
the pall of milk.
"Ever since the atrange man had
annoyed the children I bad forbidden
our girls to go Into any part of the
house alone after dark. Last evening,
not long after 7.18, HUdegarde aaked
leave to go Into the hallway. I went
with her but remained standing near
our door. A gaa Jet waa burning over
my head and on the floor above there
waa another Jet burning, so that If
any one stood there 1 would have
seen him.
VICTIM CHATTED ON WAY TO
HER DEATH.
"As HUdegarde returned Leonore
came upstairs from the street carry

asked, 'Where's Boobte?' meaning our
Alfred, six years old. She used to say
Jokingly that he was her sweetheart
Then she went on up toward her
home and HUdegarde and I went Into
our flat.
"I am sure that no one could have
come up the stairs from the atreet
after that for I was In my office at
the front of the apartment and must
have heard any one that passed.
There was no sound until fifteen min
utes later, when I heard Mlsa Johnson
cry out when abe found the poor child
groaning on the floor."
Leonore Colin, when abe died, atlll
held a lemon drop. She had not
bought any candy, as at first reported,
and this waa all ehe had. It waa
about an Inch long and had white
stripes. The police have searched all
the candy shops and stationery stores
In the regtorl, but have not been able
to find any candy of the same pat
tern. It Is believed possible the murderer
had given the child this candy, prom
ising to give her more, then entered
the house next door and mads hla way
swiftly over the roof snd down ths
stairs In time to meet her Juat before
ahe reached the safe shelter of her
own home. The gift of the candy
would have prevented the little girl
from crying out in alarm at sight of
the stranger.
Ths neighborhood In which the
crime was' committed la full of all

BAKERY CASHIER SAW MAN
WATCH CHILD.
Mlsa Julia Coll, cashier at the
bakery No. 270 Third Avenueraere
Leonore Cohn flrjt tried to get milk
last evening, saw man looking after
the child aa she left the shop.
"I was buay when the little girl
came In about 7 o'clock and aaked for
milk." aald Mlaa Codla. "She often
came here, and X remembered her,
for she was always such a polite
child. When I told her we had ao
milk ahe smiled so prettily and said.
'All right Thank you.' Even though
I waa busy, I couldn't help glancing
after her and thinking she was such
a little toddler to be out on an er
rand. "Aa I glanced after her I noticed
a foreign-looking man standing In
front of our store, looking In. Hla
glanoe fell on Leonore aa ahe passed
out and I am surs he turned and
looked after her, I could not say
whether he followed her or not"
Mlsa Codls could not tell muoh la
detail about the man. She tbougut
he wss dark, smooth faced an!
seemed rather like an Italian. She
thought he was middle sged or el
derly. She could not describe bis at
tire or whether he wore a hat or a
cap.
Mrs. Herrmann Juugaa recalled
that Leonore came Into her delica
tessen ahop, No. 319 East Twenty
sixth -Street, abdtt 7 P. M. She Lid
often beep there before with her
aunt, Mrs. Ecker.
"The dear child came In singing
some kindergarten song." said Mrs.
Jungen. "She 'got a quart of milk
and asked me to put It on her aunt's
account Sbo thanked ms very
politely for the milk when I handed
her the pall, and I laughed and gave
her a couple of little animal crackers.
She went away munching her crack
ers and singing the kindergarten
song."
Mrs. Jungen looked after the girl
aa she walked up tho street and is
sure that no one was following her.
It Is easily possible that the man Miss
Cordis saw a few minutes before was
waiting around the corner.
Leonore lived on the second floor of
the house, which la between Twenty
fifth and Twenty-sixth Streets. Short
ly after. 7 o'clock ahe waa aent for a
quart of milk to a stors In Twenty
sixth Street.
As abe went past the flrat floor
Mrs. Helen Splngler, whose door
was open, spoke to ber. The child
smiled aa ahe passed on up the stairs.
Within a few minutes the Mlaaea

Look back at tour childhood dayi.
Remember , the "dose" mother insisted
on csstoroil, calomel, cathartics. How
you hated them, bow you fought against
taking them.
With our children it'a different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physio simply don t realise wbat tbey
do. The children's revolt Is well
founded. Their tender little "iniidea"
are injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli,
clous "California Syrup of Figa." Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this bsrmleis "fruit
laxative" handy; tbey know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweeten
the stousch. and that a teaspoonful
given to-day saves a sick child to-morrow
