American artlllerv this morning co operated Willi the French guns In pre paring the way for a French raid In the sector of the Apremont forest (on the Voero pHIn) The bombardment lasted two hours and wan so Intense that It van plainly heard In Toul, between sixteen and Mienteen nilUa nvvav Trelous to the raid the Americans on the French right flank created an Infantry dlerslon Our patrol intered the village of Apremont, but found no Germans. It returned through a bar rage Are that the German batterlea laid Cswn. Another American patrol cut the outer entanglements In front of the Ger man trenches The men wero working on the heavy Inner Hue, ten jards from the German trenches, when twenty Ger mans attacked with bombs, rllles and automatics The Americans returned the fire fornfteen minutes, when they heard German re-enforcements running along the duckboards of their trenches. Then they retlied, not having sustained any casualties During the preliminary bombardment the Germans countered, throwing nu merous gas shells Sees $3,000,000 Profit to P. R. T.

"Tho company has inado It clear th it It has nothing to do with the proposal of the Increase, nnd that It has tome entirely from tho men, based on their desires for more inunej It Is safe, therefore, to nssumo that the Increased cost of materials lias had nothing to do with the proposed fare Increase "In these figures, I have gono over the thine but roughly, but It is near enough to accuracy to show councils must go very carefully In considering any lr,crease of fares at present Our as sociation Is going into the matter thor oughly. "Wo have been fighting1 against an increase In fares Howevet, vie do not wlih to see the men sufTei for want of proper wages. On the other hand, vie do not want to see tho fare go be jond tho point of necessity "In considering this matter. Councils should refer the,matter7o a proper com mittee, so that nil those Interested and thero are many of us may pre sent every side of the case" Carmen's Drive Can't liaise Fare No change In Philadelphia's car fare will result from the agitation by the carmen for a six-cent rate, according to Dr. William Draper Lew is, special transit counsel for the city. Doctor Lewis said that nny changes would be regulated by the new proposed leased of the clt -built transit lines to the Philadelphia Itapld Tianslt Com pand. which he expects to be approved by the Public Service Commission. The Conductora',and motormen's peti tion to President Mitten, of tho P. n. T., asking for an Increase of, one rent In fare to give the Alien five rents an hour more, was formally presented today to President Mitten and Kills Ames Bal lard, counsel for the company. The petition will go to Councils for approval of the advance, us set forth In the 1907 contract between tho city and the company. Lewis DlnrounU llemand When asked what he thought of the move for an Increase, Doctor Lewis said: "t do not think about It at all. I do not think It Is to be taken seriously. I believe that long before Councils ap proves the petition the new rontrnct wilt have been approved by tho Public Serv. ico Commission This provides the means for regulating the fares "The contract settles all questions of faie. It will mean, first of all, that the fares will be 5 cents and exchange tickets abolished. The fare will remain at 5 cents until $500,000 of th? com pany's surplus Is eaten up by operating expenses. Then the fare Is raised. . "When that Increase would be neces sary under the new contract no man can tell. With prices going up and up and ever changing. It would be Impos sible to tell what fare would be neces sary even bIx months hence. The con tract will cut ismi.uoo from the com pany's revenue at once through aboil. I tlon of the exchange ticket." It was pointed out to Doctor Lewis ithat the proposed fare Increase Is 20 per cent, while the wage Increase Is only approximately 16 per cent. "If this fare Increase Is based entirely on the wage Increase It Is absurd," ho said. "It would be out of proportion." Mayor Smith said this afternoon that t although he was one of the city's repre- f sentattvea on the P, It. T. board of dl- L rectors, he was not sufficiently ac- S qualnted with the Btate of the company's I finances at present to discuss the In- ! creased fare proposal. K "It an ordinance for Increase of fares 3 comes before me for signature, I'll dls- 5 cuss It," he said, "but there Is nothing to say now." . Joseph V, Gaffney, chairman of Coun- re ells finance committee, likewise was KJ reticent. REFUSES NATI6NAL HYMN i Trenton Csfo Proprietor Arretted for Not Having It Played Trenton K. J.. May 11.
