Oklah ma City, June 3O.-The orig
inal Postal Telegraph x Gable COM
pany. controlled by Clarence II. Mack
ey OF New York, will disconnect t.
self from the Texas Postal Telegraph
4 Telephone company, Western Union
Telegraph company and the Pioneer
Telegraph and Telephone company,
and will hereafter do an Independent
business in Oklahoma.
A charter was issued by Secre ary
# State Bill Cross Wednesday to the
original Postal Telegraph & Gable
company. The directors are \. X.
Richards and George Rheem, Jr., of
Kansas City, and w. \. Logan mana
ger of the Postal Telegraph company
in Oklahoma City The capital STOCK
is $4,000.
For the past year and a half the
Western Union. Pioneer Telephone
& Telegraph company have been prac'
lically one great organization, all us
ing the same poles and some of the
same wires.
The Texas Postal telegraph com
pany was organized in Texas in 1881
and secured charter TO do business
in the states of Texas, Arkansas
Louisiana and Indian Territory. II
used the poles of the Bell Telephone
company, which controls the Pioneer
company in Oklahoma and made con
nections with the Clarence H. Mack.
ey's Postal Telegraph company of
New York. which ran a line through
the state along the Santa Fe railroad s
right of way. Abort year and a
half ago, when the Bell Telephone
company took over the Western Union
Telegraph company, this merged al
the telegraph and telephone compa
nies together, as far as using the same
poles and instruments.
The original Postal Telegraph &
Gable company will operate an inde
pendent line in Oklahoma in the IN
ture.
Manager Logan, who has been witt
the Postal for several years, will con
tinue as manager of the company. He
stated Wednesday night that, as yet
he did not know whether the Posta
would commence Immediately con
structing new lines or not but it /,
likely it would, unless satisfactory ar
rangements could be made with tn,
Texas Postal company It is possible
the Mackey company will buy all tn'
poles belonging to the Texas Posta
company, and operate over the sam,
lines. Just what steps will be takel
along this line Manager Logan coult

he Postal would do an independen
