OPENING STATEMENT
For the State Made by Prosecutor
R. M. Wanamaker.

Prosecutor Wanamaker said the ey'-
dence would show that on Sept. %,
1898, H. G. CARRIER, was employed by
the Central Union Telephone Com
pany. At that time the old franchise
of the company was about ready to ex-
pire. AT this particular time, the ordi-
nance of the company for a renewal
of its franchise had been sent to the
council. While il was there the men,
bers of the Board withdrew their ap-
proval. The date of that withdrawal
was June 20, 1893. 1t was not re-
ported until some time later. Mean
while a resolution was passed by the
Council, deferring action until more
favorable rates Gould be secured.
While il was being held up to secure
more favorable rates this defendant
