MACKAY ISSUES STATEMENT.
Declares Postal l. Not in Any Way
Interested In Merger.

supt W. p s. Hawk OF the Postal
Telegraph company with offices ia this
city has furnished The News with the
following item telegraphed him last
night from New YORK.
Clarence II. Mackay. president Of the
Mackay companies. issued the Follow
ing statement 20 the public yesterday
1--WE have had nothing 90 do. either
directly or indirectly. with the COM
bination OF the American Telephone
and Telegraph company with the West
ern Union Telegraph company. We
have not wished to join 10, and haN"
not been invited 10 join &c. There have
been no negotiations whatsoever with
US in regard 20 the matter and there
is every reason why we should not
have had anything TO do with u. We
knew nothing about IL until the day
when Ii was publicly announced. II is
true that we own a large block OF
stock Of the American Telephone and
Telegraph company, but that ~ ono
OF our many investments. We never
have had and have not now any repre-
sentative on the board OF that COM
pany and our stock Is not consulted
or considered any more than the stock
Of any other stakeholder, as you will
see from the fact that we knew moth
ing about this deal until Il was made
public. The statement that Mr.. VIII
liam n. Baker represents us Is iucor-
rect He does not represent us In any
thing Ina the slightest degree. Neither
have we had anything to do with the
purchase OF the telephone company in
the middle west. Our company IS slow
aud conservative in its investments, but
swift and aggressive In its service. We
are not disturbed in any way.
we have successfully met hard COM
petition for over 25 years, and have
prospered and are In first class financial
condition, better than ever before. We
have waited until this matter had
slmmered down so that we could make
one statement covering the whole sub
ject As ! stated several weeks ago.

The above bears out just what Sunt.

The Shubert lease OF the old Lyric

brought record breaking crowds and
there IS no question but that the Shu-
berts win take up their option and
erect a great building ON Third South
and Main streets, with an up-to-date
theater as the basis, and offices as
side issue
DEAL IN CONTEMPLATION.
Frank L. Bacon. local manager Of the
Shubert interests. said this morning
that the deal WAS In contemplation. but
that other sites were under considers
ton. He said that the matter would
be closed upon the arrival or
Jake Shubert and that the Shu-
bert interests would either move from
the present location or remodel the
whole property. There have been prop
ositions made 10 the owner Of the old
Lyric, but there has been no disposi-
ton on his part to sell. This has forced
the Shuberts TO look for another looa-
tion and they settled on the Gift hotel
property.
The stage OF the Lyric, now occupied
by shubert, r. entirely inadequate to
the presentation o. q big play. The
scenery OF the opening engagement was
found to be too large for the accommo-
dati0ns and staRings we're borrowed
from other local play houses. The large
company which has been working dur
ing the past week has been hampered
through lack OF proper back grounds,
and. although II has had the standing
room sign out all the time the best
results have not been obtained.
salt Lake Is one OF the best cities
IN the country a. a theater center"
said Mr.. Bacon today 1T Ia lacking In
q fret class play house where the best
OF plays may be presented, II Is the
aim OF the shuberts to remedy this and
before another year has gone by the
city win have an up-to-date theater
which will compare favorably with any
in the land
