CTBiN CABLE FRANCHISES.
A HEARING GIVEN TO RIVAL COMPANIES BY
ATTORNEY GENERAL GRGGGS

y
ATTORNEY GENERAL GRGGGs.
Washington March 1.-The Attorney General
gave a hearing to-day on the question of the right
Of the Commercial Gable Company Of Cuba. cor
po~ation organized on February 10. 1893 In New
Jersey BY officers OF the Postal Telegraph and
Gable Company. to land and operate submarine
cable between the United States and Cuba. This
right is contested by the International Ocean Tee-
graph Company. under management OF the
Western Union Telegraph Company. The two COM
panies were represented by counsel. II was con-
tended on behalf Of the International Ocean Tee-
graph Company that by the specific terms OF a
ROYAL decree issued by the Spanish Government In
1866 Il acquired the exclusive right and privilege
for the term OF forty years to land cable In CUBA
to be operated between that island and the United
States II was argued further that by the terms
OF the Treaty Of Peace between this country ana
Spain the United States bound itself to respect ali
private rights OF ownership Of property OF what
eyer character in the island. and disavowed any
intention permanently TO exercise sovereignty over
II and hence II had no authority 70 abrogate the
decree or interfere with the full enjoyment OF the
companys rights under It's concession
on behalf Of the Commercial company 1t was said
that the original franchise from spain had oe'n
secured through misrepresentation and fraud ana
al-o that the continuance OF the monopoly was con-
trary to the public policy Of the United states IL
also was contended tina, under its general authory
over conquered territory the nlted states hdu Il
right 10 in Iure into and abrogate such CONCESSIONS
as were found TO be subversye OF the rights or
others and against pubic policy. A copy OF the
Official Gazette" containing the decree OF lo5o was
flied with the Attorney-General which II was sald,
showed that the concession was obtained through
false representation that the United states had also
granted exclusive monopoly FOR forty years.
Counsel for the International Ocean company
contcnded that the allegation Of fraud was not ss
tanned the royal order or by fully coi"t s
INC concession Of 1866 for the full torn OF forty
wears and SAYS in specific terms that the FRANCHISE
era ed by the United States was FOR fourteen
wears Therefore there could have been no mLun-
derstanding as 10 the length OF time 1t was 10
