A Telephone Monopoly Secuted.

From the st. Louis GlObe-DemOcrat.
A dispatch appearing in the morning papers
Yesterday to the effect that the Western Union
Telegraph company and Jay Gould were
scheming to get possession of the telephone
companies of the country by certain stock
jobbing manipulations, a reporter yesterday
called upon Mr.. Durant, General Manager of
the Bell Telephone company of this city, to
ascertain if there was any truth in the state
ment. Mr.. Durant stated that he placed no
credence in the rumor. and that he was conf
dent that it was not true, from the simple fact
that the telephone interests of the country
wtr o. varied and scattered to be taken in
by such a scheme. If there was one manage.
ment such proposition might be possible.
There were, however, several distinct compan-
les. There were four SCI arate companies in
Missouri, and at least I25 in other parts of
the United State, making it almos' impossible
according to his views Of the matter, for a
combination to obtain possession of the entire
telephone system of the country. Mr. Durand
also added, incidentally, that he did not take
