BIG DEAL IN TELEPHONES


Independents steal a March on the Bell In
ihe East.
In view of the local telephone dis
cussion, it will be of interest here to
note that yesterday was completed at
Boston the largest single transaction
ever made in the telephone business,
he Telephone, Telegraph and Cable
Company Of America buying one
share more than half of the $40, COO. :
200 worth of capital stock of the Erie
Te ephOne company.
The Western Union Telephone COM
pany is believed to be backing the Tel
ephone. Telegraph and Gable compa-
az, and the deal by which the Erie is
aiken over is thought TO mean that
the Western Union will become a
rival of the American Bell Telephone
company in the latter'5 especial field.
John Jacob Aston is a director in
both the Western Union and the Tele-
phone, Telegraph and Cable company.
Che brother of President Ecbert. of
the Western Union. is the controlling
power z the knickerbOcker Telephone
company Of New York. and there are
other good reasons for believing that an
)ut-andou utilization of the two great
corporations will result. William j.
Latta, OF Philadelphia Is president of
he Telephone, Telegraph and Cable
company.
The purchase of this control of the
Erie system looks very much as if the
indeper dents had stolen march on
The Bell company that will prove of
immense value to them and CORES
bonding disadvantage to the older
concern in the fiyhtto the death which
experts believe is coming.
