Telegraph and Telephone Companies Cam

Telegraph and Telephone Companies Cam
not Combine on Messages
TOPEKA, Kan, April 2S.-Attorney-
General Little has written an opinion
TO the effect that telegraph and tele-
phone companies have no right to enter
into an agreement whereby one shall
refuse to transmit messages in the in
terest OF the other. The case discussed
came from Ottawa where the Missouri,
Kansas & Texas Telephone Co refused
to transmit a written message on the
ground that the telegraph company
would not permit It to do so.
The attorney-general holds that as
the companies are independent of each
other. doing business under different
charters, they cannot enter into COM
bination of the character complained
OF. The formation of such combina-
ton. he says. would be ground for the
forfeiture of the charters of both COM
