Preparations are being made by the
International Bell Telephone company
TO discontinue business. The company
once had capital of 81. 75O, 600, but it
was reduced to 100000 1t has now
been decided to reduce it to $3.50, 900 by
the payment to the stockholders of a
cash dividend of s250,O0
This concern introduced the telephone
in several foreign countries, the prin-
cipal one being Russia, where ii has a
2l-year contract with the government
This contract expires in 1901 and it is
thought that the Russian government
then will avail itself of the contract
right TO take possession of the COM
pany's property. Meantime the COM
pany is selling its other business in
Sweden, Holland. Switzerland and Bel
GUM. The officers think they viii be
able to pay the stockholders in full out
of the proceeds of these sales and the
earnings in the next few years Among
telephone men ii is asserted that a
patent right in this country lauses
when the same patent expires abroad
and that ii is possible a new phase of
the telephone business will develop.

desire to have her trade interests pro-
tected and her treaty with the islands
