At a hearing as to rates of the Central District Telephone Company, held yesterday morning in the Court House, before State Public Service Commissioner William A. Magee, testimony was offered that Pittsburgh telephone rates are higher than those of larger cities, even New York and Chicago, and that Seattle is the only city in the United States which has a higher rate. The hearing was called on complaint of the city through the Chamber of Commerce.

Assistant City Solicitor C. K. Robinson went over the exhibits and questioned the witnesses as to the rates in different cities all over the United States. In almost every instance the rate here was shown to be higher than in other cities, both for business and residence telephones. Allen C.

Morse, an engineer of Clove-land, Ohio, said there were only three cities in the United States having a higher rate for unlimited residence telephones than Pittsburgh. In Cleveland, he said, the rate for an unlimited residence telephone was $48, in comparison with $75 in Pittsburgh. In Detroit, he said, the rate was $42. It was testified that in New York the telephone development was eight times the development in Pittsburgh, but that the rates were lower. TO PEXSIOX FARMERS AT 30 Senator Wilson Says State Should Reward Sacrifices Albany, April 1'2.

Senator Thomas B. Wilson, of Hall, father of Charles S. Wilson. State Agricultural Commis sioner, said last night that he intends to introduce a bill creating a pension fund for farmerts. He believes that boys who give preference to farm life and forego pleasures and advantages of the city arc entitled to considera- tion.

Senator Wilson favors a pension i of $10 a month to every farmer who has reached the age of 30 years and has not been away from the farm since his school days. Some Senators who favor the bill be-: lieve the pension age limit is set too low, but Senator Wilton, a farmer himself, thinks that as Ion as a lot of other people seek pensions for one or another cause, somebody ought to originate a really good thing for the farmer.
