REFUSED BY TIIE 1 REP0RT.OF STREET COMMIT lit THAT IT IS INEXPEDIENT AT THIS TIME TO GRANT ANY FRANCHISES WAS ADOPTED.

CONCERT HALL RULES CHANGED BY BOARD AMEXDMEST VESTIXO POWER tO ISSUE LICENSES WITH THE MAY OR CARRIED 'A VOTE OF; IT TO 7 BUSINESS MBX WERE PRESENT. The Board of Aldermen yesterday after denying the petition of the Queen City Telephone for a franchise! adopted the report the Street Comifilttee recommending: that the prayers of all petitioners be denied at this time. The) subject came up on thef report of the committee, which as briefly stated in JE TIMES yesterday, recommended thf-it it is inexpedient at this time to give to any of the applicants the permission which they desire, because "the crowded and congested condition of many of the streets of Buffalo during the season in which the Pan-American Exposition will be open, makes it unsafe to grant to any company the right to tear the same up for the purpose of laying its conduits and putting In Its wires. In addition, it would be a serious undesirable "disfigurement -of many of the thoroughfares of the city, which ought to be a'voided, at least during the time when many strangers are going to be within the city' A second'' reason given by the committee was that in granting an additional telephone franchise to meet the' requirements of the city careful investigation and examination of. the various eystefna in vogue throughout the country should be made by the city-'s representatives and until this is done it wouia be unwise to commit the 'committee to any particular system.

I Ner Company Offer. "Vyln the report had been read Aid. Maischoss presented the petition of the Queen City Telephone Company for a franchise and moved as an 'amendment to he motion to adopt the committee report that the petition be granted. A two hour debate followed In which the whole subject was threshed out once more in public. William L.

Marcy, attorney for the Queen City Company, was first heard in behalf of the petitioner. Hfe ex-, plained the conditions upon Which the franchise was based. Those are, briefly: A rate of $50 for a direct wire' and $40 on a two-party wire to business places i with unlimited service night and day; a rate of $36 for a direct wire and $24 for a wire for home telephone with service; 40 telephones for municipal use, free of "charge. The company also offered to begin construction- within three months after the granting of -the franchise, ana agreed to have two miles of conduits laid by October. 1, 1902; it would pay the City 2 percent, of its gross receipts after the expifatlon of three years from the flate of beginning the seivlefc and wouid agree not to transfer the fran- chlse to any other company.

The City is to be protected by a bond and it is further provided thatj the City shall have the right at the expiration of 50 years to buy out the company by appraisement. If the City did not care to io so at that "time it should have, the same right at successive periods of 25 years. i Business Men Present. Asld. Maischoss declared that while it Jnay be inconvenient to have two telephones it ta a greater inconvenience to have one telephoe and pay for four.

Richard Humphrey, president of the Central Council of the Buffalo Business Men's Association; John Coleman; busi ness agent of the United Trades and Labor Council; L. M. Hewitt of the West Side Business Men's Association, and John Rohrer of the North Jefferson Business Men's Association, all declared In favor of the petition. On the roll call Aid. Avery read a long communication in which he declared aa.tho reault nf his invpHtlcratinrm In Rochester, Detroit and Cleveland that a dual telephone service was a great nuisance; that it ended eventually in the comnanies combining, and conclud ed by declaring.

that competition' in fhe telephone business is impossible and that the only remedy is through municipal ownership. Petition Rejected. Aid. Kennedy, declared that he wanted competition, but wanted it to come In th-rlght way. By favoring this pe tition, he said, the city shut out other companies from making offers.

The Al derman said he was satisfied that cheaper rates were coming. The petition was rejected by a "vote of 7 to 17. Those in- favor of it were Aid. Busch, Darmstadter, Haese, Hend-ler, Huster, Landsheft and Maischoss. Those opposed: Aid.

Avery; Barth, But-i ler, Collins, Cwiklinski, Dix, Franklin, Gorman, Holmes, Kennedy, Kissinger, Knickenberg, Manning, Roedel, Schnei-. der, 'Schnellbach, Sullivan. Aid. Mc-Eachren was absent. The report was then adopted.

The resolution amending the ordinances by making it discretionary, with the Mayor and Superintendent Police to issue concert hall licenses was offered by Aid. Kennedy, Aid. Franklin, the father of It, declining to present it on of his position as president of the board. The amendment, as stated yesterday, annuls the ordinance passed last fall prohibiting the issuing of licenses to concert halls. Concert Hall Licenses.

The amendment to the ordinance was adopted by a vote of seventeen seven. Those voting against it were Aid. Avery, Darmstadter, Hendler, Maischoss, Manning and Schnellbach. An amendment to the ordinances introduced providing that all bicycles must display lights at night. It wa referred to the Committee on Ordinances.
