The case was adjourned Ogdensburg when the Welland can- al Is opened. He said: \Prior to 1916 the Rutland Tran- sit company, a subsidiary < t the Rutland railroad, operated steam- between O:\dennbu;* :; and Milwaukee und Chicago, but in con- sequence oi tao Panama canal act, the ships were sold under the or- der of the Interstate commerce com- mission. At Ogdensburg the com- pany had large warehouses, dock property and a grain elevator of 500.000 bushels capacity. \In 1922 the rail and lake line was reestablished by agreement with a private boat line, but in \The ha:'d»:::g of grain in Og- densburg I: H been resumed this year through ICUKI of the elevator to one of tho largest firms In the country, and It is confidently ex- pected that this company will con- tinue to operate it to our mutual advantage. There are exlako rates on grain from Ogdensburg to sta- tions on the Rutland railroad, Bos- ton & Maine, railroad and Maine Central railroad. This gives the milling people the advantage of having grain seasons, such grain being ready for immediate ship- ment, and we feel that this has been of great benefit to receivers Captain Bovard Recoilec* A*- 4M&1& Public MwrttB^iu the signment Day Previous ftext Ten Days When An- to Bfaisacrfx nouncemente Will Be Blade.

NORWICH, Dec. X. A schedule of rates, both for individ- ual and commercial servfrec was filed by the New York State Gas end Rlectrlc company with the Pub- lic Service Commission Saturday, tb become effective Dec. 25. As a result of the new schedule the rate hearing scheduled for No- vember 29, has been postponed to January 24, at the request of the petitioners. The new rates consist, in both individual and commercial cases of what is known as a two part rate, known as a fixed charge and an energy charge. The new rates are known as the Hartford rate and are in general use in Connecticut. For residences the rate is as fid- lows: a fixed charge of 75 cents by consent to the January term in i plus 10 cents per 100 square feet of residence four cents per K W hour. In all cases the minimum charge is»r month is the fixed charge. Consumers of current may CM* may not take advantage of the new schedule of rates. The present rate is 14 cents net per K W hour and it is optional with consumers whether they continue to use this rale or bike advantage of the new schedule. Advantages are to be gained through the new rates, especially to the larger consumers of current. It will mean lower bills for the n«tw i ' u, 'tf<'r consumers, and will afford an opportunity to all consumers to use electricity in large quantities at a reasonable rate. Another advantage is that only one meter will be used whether the service is for rooking, lighting or refrigeration. It is expected at least one third of the users of electricity will be benefited by this change in rates. The company believes the rates will be satisfactory and will ask for a fair trial of them by all consumers alter it goes into effwt December Captain Martin Bovard of 322* Hasbrowck street, this city, remem- bers as vividly today as when they occurred* more than a half century! ago the events that transpired in connection with the massacre of the troops of General Georg> A. Custei in the tragic battle of Little Big Horn. Captain Bovard enlisted In the regular army in Chicago, November 2. 1S7C. He was aligned to ttoe Thiiteenth infantry, which was then stationed at Port Douglas, Utah. Soon after poining the infan- try, hie -command was ordered to' New Orleans, La. In 1876, the year Rutherford B. Hayes was elected president, the Thirteenth infantry was sent to Port Gibson, Miss., to' protect the Negro voters in their' right of exercising thv»ir franchise. \ It was charged that attempts were b« ing made to prevent the Negroes from voting. ; Captain Bovard's company was given orders, June 25. 187B, to start ' for Montana to reinforce General j Custei. On the day following re- cHpl.of the orders news came that the Seventh cavalry and General Ciutcr were no more. General Cus- ter had been informed by his scouts that the Indians were located on the west 'bank of the Little Big 1 Horn. j He did not suppose there would j be much opposition from one In- dian village and without knowing the strength of the enemy, he or- dei.'d an attack. The Indians sur-i r<<unded Custer and his men. driv- ing tiiem 'back They fought desper- OOTTERNEUR, Dec. 3. — With- in the coming week or tea days, a public meeting is expected to be held at which time the definite plans of the Northern People, Inc., will he discussed and explained. Meantime tiie organisation which was completed at a meeting will.j begin to function and shortly a' ; membership campaign will be start- ed. The organization will embrace several counties, all having more ,'* or less of a common interest. The •*• movement has created wide inter- est and communications relative to its objects and motives have been received from all parts of the state. The organization grew out of a meeting held at the Municipal building in this village in August last at which time an effort was made to organize a Gouverneur unit of the Northern New York De- velopment Association which has headquarters in Watertown. Feel- ing was manifest at the August meeting in favor of another organ- i ization and almost immediately the I Northern People., Inc., was Parted. Papers of ineorporation were re- j ceived from the secretary of state's office within the past fortnight per- mitting the organization to operate j in six or seven counties. , The first meeting was held in j this village (HI Wednesday evening. \ | A.
