Presidential Secretary Ramirez, on
behalf of the President, made a state?
ment In part as follow?:
"According to the news published in
the local press, the arrival of two:
American warships to-day Is due to!
alarming reports sent to Washington, I
which Is lamentable. The recent I
events in Havana lack importance, the '
polics having promptly quelled the dis-I
order. j
It is lamentable, because the Cuban!
people have a warm affection for the"]
l ulled States and are surprised und i
hurt that warships are sent here for'
the protection of interests which nonci
has attacked or will attack."
Hardly a visible ripple of popular In-]
tcrcst attended the arrival this after?
noon of the United States armored
cruiser Washington, the flagship of j
Admiral Osterlmus and the battleship I
Rhode Island, freighted, as both uro
supposed to be. with Weighty influ
ences on Cuba's fate. Behind this ap- |
parent apathy, howevor, was a gen
em! hut suppressed impression that
the coming of the ships portended
the long dreaded American Interven?
tion.

not disappointed. I'erfect management

ami although tho play continued until
a few minutes to fc /clock, the gallery
lingered to the la ft.
The withdrawal <?:' tho two premier

and Richard Palmer, two-time nuldur |
of this cup, at the lust moment was a I
k.-i n disappointment lo the followers of
the game In Rlchmon I. Their absence
will tend to leave the winner of the
tournament in doubt until the lost

American court, telegraphed his with?

There were no unexpected reversals

"Tills shows ?hat the average gen?

Incsa at such a general average rate. I
It Is not what is regarded us un ade?

"I was once with the East Rl vor
Gas Company, of 1-ong Island, which
was turned over to i.ie Consolidated |
?!us Company with increased capital.!
.Some of the streets we tore up had!
eleven ?r twelve pipeM where onoj
would have been sufficient. There has,
come a consol'dat'on; there is all)
that dead capital. The consolidated!
company is protected in its rates by,
the courts in earning n fair return!
on the total of capital fairly Invested
by the various co:nr?.-ting corrtipa.nlvs.
'J hero is now over fifty miles of use?
less gas pipe in the streets of Balti?
more. There were three plants where
one would do the work, nnd the Pub-!
lie Service Commission of Maryland
allows the consolidated company to
charge rales to earn a fair return on
the entire investment. So the com?
munity is paying the bill.
"The electric situation in Baltimore
is similar. It has been the experience
of every large city first in gas anil
then in electricity, naltlmore is now
saddled with 84,000,000 bonds for use
Jess duplicating plants, with Wires
CriissCFOSSlnib .ac.h other, and rho com?
pany is protected In its charges and
earnings in earning only a fair ro
turn on these bonds. As usual the
public is the goat.
"In St. Louis ft was the same thln--r.
Capital has been piled up in four or
five plants. They have consolidated,
increased capital, and the company is
now allowed In fixing its rates to
lam a fair return on miles of useless
wire.
cheaper to Reimburse Them.
"What would happen here? There,
would he a tight, a lot of Useless capi?
tal invested, the streets torn up, a
consolidation and the public pay In?
creased rates to pay int. rest on double
investment. No one gains. The city
would save a great denl more money
by reimbursing the applicants for what
they have already spent.
'lite "nuisnnec value" of a rompet
inir franchise has become a well re
cognized term in discussing competi?
tion. It is an economic crime to re- |
open ? e doors if competition w'th
the mistaken notion that the coni
munity will benefit."
Mr. Anderson followed in a clear
argument, reviewing briefly points
outlined before the subcommittee
when the franchise was being framed.
He urged tho committee not to grant
a franchise out of sympathy for those
who bod built an unprofitable railway
line parallelling within a block ex
Ist'ng lines and developing no new
territory. When the old traction
company came into the field, he
showed, the old company was not
tendering a proper sevico to the com?
munity, As to regulation, he believed
such power now lay witlt the
.Corporation Commission; it it did not
? he ould gladly support a bill to
place It there. In any c:M> the ordi?
nance itself specified that the Cotin
; ell reserves the right to "impose mich
: other regulations us It may from
! time lo time deem proper." wwhlch
tie contended was Itself ample regula?
tion.
FreiVrlcksburir Franchise.
Mr. Anderson also explnned the sit?
uation in Foderlckshurn to which ref
J erence had been -made In a "service
talk,'' slntlnir thai Mr. Onuld is now
erecting a concrete power house there
holding the only franchise in exis?
tence, the old plant, once sold under
, foreeinaiu-s. _t?n^flKO,, hnyip? .AUDIlad
since for a franchise and been \
fused.
Takintr uo a discussion r,f iho ordi?
nance, Mr. Anderson said that If the
amendment proposed by Mr. Kclley
cvn adopted. and It er.' left to
the Conttnlttee i>n Streets to requln
the comoanv to extend Its linos from
time to time, each case could be lak
< n into court on Injunction proceed
In IS, which would be upheld If It
. ould he shown that the city Was
seeking to compel the company to o\
P< nd money for an unprofitable ven?
ture.
Mr. Meredith closed the argument
for the Richmond and llcnrlco Com?
pany, holding thnt the present com-i
pany is an uncontrolod monopoly, wllhi
r.c power to regulate its rates or ser?
vice save by competition.
Mr. Milloi would naturally be af?
fected by bis associations with mono?
polies, contended Mr. Meredith.
"I nm In favor of the Initiative und
referendum," he asserted. "There Ist I
r.o other way to get laws passed In ni
reasonable jtlme. I have seen the I
legislature so much cohtrolcd by bor-1
poratlon lobbies that the. simplest
angca ?i th<- nvthod of pleading in

C C NATURE'S
e PERFECT TONIC
Sometbing more than an ordinary tonic is required to restore health to
a weakoned, run-down system; the niodicine must possess blood-purifyiug
properties as well, because the weakness and impurity of the circulation is
responsible for the poor physical condition. The blood does not contain
the necessary quantity of rich, red corpuscles, and Is therefore a weak,
tvutery stream which cannot afford su?icient nourishment to sustain tho
System in ordinary health. A poorly nourished body cannot resist disease,
und this explains why so many persons are attacked by a speU of
.sickness when the use of a good tonic would hnvo prevented the troubh?.
In S. S. S. will be found both blood-cleansing and tonic qualities combined.
It builds up weak constitutions by removing all impurities and germs from
the blood, thus supplying a certain menus for rosloring strength and
invigorating the system. Tho healthful, vogetable ingredients of which
B. S. S. is composed make it splendidly fitted to tho needs of those systems
which are delicate from any cause. It is Nature's Perfoct Tonic, free from
all harmful minerals, a safe ana pleasant acting modicino for persons of
every age. S. S. S. rids the body of that tired, worn-out feeling so common
at this season, improves the appetite and digestion, tones up the stomach,
acts with pleasing effects c > the nervous system, and roinvigorates everv
portion of the body. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, G?.
