NOT EVEN CONSIDERED
Rumurs Of he Consolidation Of The Gen.
trail Home and Bell Telephone
Companies Denied.

j. {. Montoith, vice president Of
the Central Home Telephone Com
pany, said yesterday that there was
absolutely no truth in the report
that a deal was on whereby the Bell
Telephone Company had acquired or
would acquire the independent tele
phone interests in Kentucky, Ten
nessce. Missouri aud Southern In
diana The report was published
several days ago that such a deal was
on and that it was likely that the
independent aud Cumberland COM
pauies in this city would be consoli-
dated Mr. Nonteith SAID that there
was absolutely no truth in the report
and that there was no foundation
whatever upon which to base such a
report.
NO negotiation of any kind have
been entered into. said Mr. Mon
teith. The report that such deal
wa, on doubtless originated from
some uniformed person, who, hear
iur that the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company had sold $40, p
600. 600 of its bonds recently, did
not know that the bulk Of tina: sale
was necessary for the payment of
notes issued two years ago by that
company and payable May l. The
statement, which originated in New
\ ork, il preposterous on its face for
the reason that it would be impos.
sible 20 acquire the independent
| interests in such a short time even If
it we're contemplated. Moreover, 1t
is not likely that Frederick i. Fish
would have consummated any such
deal upon the eve of his retirement
from office May |, he having resign
ed as president, director and memoer
of the Executive Committee OF the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company. He was succeeded by
Theodore NJ. Vail.
THE whole story is fabrication
from beginning to end, continued
Mr.. Monteith, "as far as the indie
penden. interest in the territory
mentioned Is concerned. However,
the Central Union Telephone Com
pany, the Bell Company operating
in Indiana, has offered to withdraw
all OF its local exchanges from that
State, excepting possibly lndianapo-
Il lis. provided the Independent tele-
phone exchanges throughout the
State would permit the Bell Com
pany to connect their wires with the
independent exchanges and give them
lust such long-distance business as
could not be handled by the indie
pendeuts for points that the indie
pendent. do not now reach, such as
New York, Bosten, Denver and New
Orleans "
Mr.. Monteith added that this
proposition had never received fav-
orable consideration from the indie
pendents. --Courier-J Journal.

that he be given back his 100000,

Guggenheims, sold him mining claims
which did not have a clear title and
also sold him claims that are not
what he represented them to be.
Straub states that he is willing to
take the property and make the last
payment of $4,000 as soon as he is
given a clear title to all the property

trust-the Guggenheims-who are
heavily Interested III the copper mines
of Ely, and who also are building the
big smelter there. After several con-
ferences with he railway magnateS
and the smelter people they came to
the conclusion that the idea suggest
ed was a good one. Before the month
is over there will be representatives
OF all parties interested in the con-
,.truction of the new road in Goldfield
The main question they wanted
to know was whether there was
enough low-grade ore here to warrant
the construction of a road, | believe
they will be convinced there is plenty
Ne figured out that the construction
Of the road would cost about $4,000
a mile and the smelter officials as
sured me that the cost of handling and
treating The ore would not be in eH-
cess OF s. a ton. 1t is in my opinion

JOhn y. is
Cause OF Slump

The drop in the price OF copper
may be due to d fight between Rock
efeiler and the Guggenheims. John
ID. is the lord of the earth on oil
and he also is a factor in copper.
The Guggenheims are the lords OF all
creation when it comes to the mining
of gold and silver and its extraction
from the rock that contains precious
metals. They thought they had a
right TO mine and smelt metal ores
too and ventured into the copper
business. The Guggenheims did not
amount too much and the Rock
efeller crowd did not pay much at
tention to the rivalry, but when the
GuSgenheims got hold of a big acre
age at Ely, in this state, and started
to erect a smelter with capacity OF
10000 tons daily, John got little
worried and had heart to heart talk
with the Senator who represents
Colorado. They could not agree
an John left the Office and threatened
to put copper SO low that the grade
that is in evidence at Ely could not
be mined at a profit.
This information comes from an
inside source that takes it's rise near
the throne of the Smelter Trust.

AMERICANS FOR CAR orioFS

With the dismissal Of Foreman
T0ma Carroll and - Greeks under
his supervision in the Sparks ca!
shops, d new order recently issued by
The Southern Pacific company went
into effect In the future none but
Americans will be employed in the
car shops, which solves the mystery
surrounding the arrival there OF about
100 carmen during the past few days.
The cause Of the dismissal OF the
Greek laborers is not for the reason
that he foreigners do not make good
laborers, but is due to he fact that
the company desires to full UP the
town with more desirable residents.
The Greeks will be given jobs some
other place on the system, where they
can get just as much money, and
their places in Sparks will be taken
by men who will probably settle there
with their families.

pronOuncement of the Council of
iiome concerning marriage. Under
the decree, which takes effect after
Easter, 1908, all marriages between
Catholics, not celebrated before
properly qualified Catholic priest, are
absolutely null and void. Heretofore
marriages between Catholics before a
justice Of the peace or other civil
utficer or minister, while prohibited
were valid. Under the new law, such
marriages are still prohibited and are
regarded as void and invalid-in fact
no marriage at all in the eyes of the
church. After Easter, 1908, Catholics
married in this manner must be mar
ried by priest, as in the eyes of the
CHURCH they are still unmarried
There will ben only two exceptions
to this rule: First, in case of immi-
nent danger of death and no duly
authorized priest is obtainable Then
any priest can perform the ceremony
Ill lllc pIGS6llCe Vi lWO Witnesses,
and of course complying with the
civil law.
The original decree OF the Council
of Trent, called the "TameSti" de-
cree Oamesti being the first Latin
word of the decree, and meaning al
thought, was local in its application
That is, as applied only to those prov
inces and promulgated or given out
This later decree of the Congregation
of The Council will serve to settle
ali difficulties arising from the eX-
iStence OF the former decree, concern
ing marriage, in provinces where the
"Tamesti' decree was hitherto in
force, for the new decree proclaims
that non-Catholics may everywhere
contract marriage validity between
themselves Independently of the legis-
lation of the Catholic church. The
only non-Catholics who come within
the scope of marriage with Catholics
and persons who have abandoned the
Catholic church.
