The prisoner absolutely refuses to

good family and has prominent rela-
yves in the city whom he does not
wish to learn Of his imprisonment.

CLAIMS CAIRNS WAS WRONG.
Bell Telephone Company Not Fight
ing the New 0rGaniza-
tim

The statement in The G. o b e a day
or two ago, that the Bell company was
fighting the issuance Of a franchise to
the Minnesota Central Telephone COM
pany, is excepted to by officers Of the
local telephone company, which uses
the Bell system. The statement made
was a quotation from the remarks Of
G. S. Cairns, the attorney for the new
concern. b. l.. Freely, manager OF the
st. Paul exchange of the National Tele-
phone company, said yesterday:
p 1T is not true that the Bell COM
pany here, which must be presumed
F.. to be our company, has been fighting
this new competitor. They use a
grounded circuit which has long since
been abandoned as not adaptable to
long distance telephoning. The utility
Of the grounded circuit for long dis
tance work is very small; only a COM
plete metallic circuit will serve the
purpose of modern business in the
transmission of telephone message
over considerable distances"
THE telephone system in use here
IS the best result of modern electrical
science. We are not in the least afraid
to submit it to any fair test on its
merits; this new concern claims that
it has connection with a number OF
towns in Southern Minnesota and
northern Iowa, not reached by our sys-
tenn. 1t may have wires to these places.
but my experience. has been. and l have
looked into the matter with consider
able care, that direct connections can
not be gotten over these lines except
for very short distances. Other peo-
pie have had the same experience.
This is the only interest the local
company has in this proposed fran
chise. 1t does not want to. and in my
opinion, should not be considered on
the same basis with a company which
can only give a limited service, and
that very uncertain, over strictly con-
fined territory. If the council, after in
vestigatiCn, cor siders the new company
worthy of a franchise, our concern WILL
I am sure, not object to any franchise
they may consider of benefit to the
citizens of St. Paul"
