The opening wedge of what promises to be a thorough investigation into the business methods of the Pacific States Telephone & Telegraph Company by the railroad commit ion will be entered at 1:30 p. m. next Friday, when a hear ing has been set by the commission up on three features of the company's methods of dealing with the public "advance payments," "termination of contracts, and 'ehort tern contracts." These are among the tnaay most im portant business methods of the tele phone company which have been brought to the attention ef the commis sion in the past, upon complaint of pa trons of the system, and they will be followed by hearings upon other phases of tne company 's dealings witn the puD lie, such as telephone rental rates, long distance tolls, etc. Advance payments and short term contracts, two of the snbjects for Friday's hearing, involve the right of the company to require ad vance payments from certain classes of its patrons for telephone rental and for its right to, require a deposit of a cer tain sum as a condition precedent to the installation of a phone in a private of fice or resident. The "termination of contract" sub ject brings in the right of the company to charge fee ($5 usually) for discon necting a phone from a private office or residence when the instrument has not been in service for one year from the date of signing the contract. This cus tom on the part of the company has been the cause of much complaint be fore the cnmmissioa, and, since there has been uo court decision to cite as a precedent or determine the rights of the company in the premises to make such a churgo for disconnecting a phone, the order of the commission in passing upon this issue will tie an event of no little importance from the view point of both the subscriber aud the corporation. It is expected that these licniiugs will extend over a period of several days.

Tho officers said: 'We wiU give you lead food.' Aad they turned the machine guns on their own soldiers to drive them into battle. That was very bad for the Kussiaa soldiers, nieht wnhr?

The big fact that stands out at pres ent is that the Austrian government wirott the rnited States to know what is going on in Austria. Vienna was unrepresented for weeks in the world 's news.

But all that gigantic movement of which only a month ago I was a participating witness, seems a world wide distance away. Here is another battle line, aot ill a garden land like France, hot through mountains and wild country, owr SCO miles long, with ,009,000 mea engaged. It was in Berlin that I received my marching orders for Austria. Would I be welcome! was the first question in my mind. I went to the Austrian consulate in Berlin and said that I wanted to go to the Austriaa front. "We shall be delighted to have an American newspaper man tell the troth about Austria,-' said the consul. He found a small clear space oa my vise-covered pssport, wrote "Uood for journeying in Austria" on it and re fused to charge me the usual fee for the service. "Here's a box you can. drop some money in for the Red Cross," he suid, "but I won't charge an American newspaper man money for entering Austria just new. Vc want you there." Next I went to Vienna. For several days it looked as if I would have ti walk from Berlin to the city whero "The Merry Widow" wus written. There were;no trains. "Wait a few days and you will get a train," tho Austrian consul told me. "The Ger mans are moving h'00,000 men into Franc just now uud they are using the cars." Bo I hung wov.nd Berlin wnit- in. In Paris such a delay would have been intolerable. While I was in the French capital every placo of amuse ment was closed and most of tho res taurants and my hotel were empty cav erns. My only amusement after sup per was to go to a little nickclinthc- sbit purler where I could hear phono graph music. I suppose the crowd of newspnper fellows still in Paris are still spending their evening-! in that way and watching nights for Zeppe lins. But Berlin wss different. I went to too theatres. I attended one of the famous Sundnv noon concerts of the . . . - - . - - . JVikisU orchestrii. I found no rf.staur ants closed or hotels emptv. At last the Germans cuinplitcd their tusk of sending freih soldiers iut:i Frauce and the tri'in service lietwern Berlin and Vienna rrr.s resumed. I took the first train.
