Mr.. MULVANE IMPROVES
President John r. MulTane VIII
Spend $4,000 At Once
On the Topeka Telephone Plant
To Make 1t Better.
Mr.. Mulvane Elucidates Some of the
Mysteries of the Telephone Service

The Missouri and Kansas Telephone
company intends to spend $4,000 in the
Improvement of the Topeka plant in the
near future. The principal portion Of
this sum viii be used in building a new
cable line between North and South To-
peka
President AIulvane says that the cable
line between the two divisions of the
city has been found to be almost de-
stroyed and the entire line or about LOO
feet of it must be replaced with new
line
The insulated wires are made into a
large ca Bile and encaSed with lead and
it has been found that the lead on this
line has disintegrated during the past
few years SO as to almost destroy tne
line. President MulVane says ne does
not understand the cause or the De
srruction but thinks it may come in
some manner from coal smoke com
bined with the atmosphere.
In the old line the cables are made
of copper wires insulated with silk
thread. President Mulvane says the
company has found more serviceable
cable The insulation Of the wires is
made with MANILA paper very carefully
wrapped. Tt makes a larger cable but
the durability viii be much longer
The new cable will have two disad-
vantages, it would be more easily sway
ed by the wind and would accumulate
more sleet but these are more than
compensated for in the fact that it VIII

President Mulvane in conversation
with a Journal reporter discussed the
amalgamation Of the Two Topeka COM
panies. '.Whe there are two telephone
companies in town, said he. the cost
must necessarily be doubled except to
the user of one telephone. The majority
of business houses in Topeka were com
PEELED to take both telephones, which at
war rates. was 80 per cent more than
the present rate, and the service was
not half as good, with great confusion
and annoyance
In talking about the comparison of
the rates charged in Topeka with those
in other large cities President Mulvane
said
"Our rates are as low as the lowest
with service as good as the best. In St
Louis the lowest rate is S1o0 and it runs
to S120. In Kansas City the lowest rate
is $50 for a special line, and business
Our party line rates for residences in
Topeka run as low as SIS per annum for
a tip top good service
The dividends, il appears from what
President Mulvane says, are notsO large
as many people suppose. In talking
about the matter. he said:
Our capital stock is fully paid up
and the present company has never had
any Watered stock and no bonds Our
dividends are about 3az per cent. and
this year the company paid 4 per cent
That is low rate of dividend for a
company with paid UP stock but it is
all the company can earn and pay a
