Many Shares of the Tele-
phone Company's Stock
Are Absorbed by Pitts
burg Parties, Who Pur-
chase the Chicago Hold
ings = Corporation Is
Strengthened Financially.

1t is now assured that there has been
an important change in the ownership
of the Twin City Telephone company.
Among those who are informed as to
the transaction it is understood that
the change will strengthen the corpor-
alton financially.
For some days it has been under
stood that an agent representing East
ern capital was negotiating with hold
ers of stock in the Twin City company,
but what significance these negotia-
tions might have as to the future of the
company has, until, now, been largely
a matter of speculation. There has
been some rumor that the contemplat-
ed deal, if consummated, would mean
the absorption of the Twin City prop
erty by the Northwestern company,
and another story which gained some
circulation was to the effect that it
would mean increased resources to the
Twin City company and more extern
sive operations.
h e G o b e is now in a position to
state that the Chicago holdings of the
Twin City company, which represent
ed at least a considerable proportion
of the stock, have been transferred to
Pittsburg capitalists, but whether the
transfer of this stock carries with it
the control of the company or not has
not been disclosed. The transfer, it is
understood, was negotiated by L. L. c
Brooks, of this city.
In the charter granted by the city
of st. Paul to the Twin City company
is clause which precludes the sale OF
consolidation of that company with
any other, without a two-thirds vote
Of the st. Paul city council. Whether
this transaction is of such a nature as
to necessitate the approval of the
council is not yet known.

Advertisement For Bids for COnstruC-

Mention was made recently in the Colorado newspapers of the advertising of bids for the building of the plant al the Tonto dam site for the manufac- ture of the cement that will be needed in the construction of the big dam. The Republican yesterday received from the reclamation service direct a copy of the advertisement which was mailed at the same time the information was given out in Denver. It is also d mat ter of report that similar bids have been asked for for the construction of a telephone line from Phoenix to the dam site, and it is likely this report will shortly be verified in a similar way.
