took action relative to a charge made
by William A. KINNEY in The Star

This is an attack upon the reputa-
ton Of the company in question as
well as the individual members there

unrefuted. There were no grounds
whatever for the statement and we
are inclined to believe that you will
upon sober second thought see the in
justice done this old company that has
been part of the city of Whining

tation second to none and withdraw
the charge in as public a manner as
you made it and Of course over your
signature.
We shall and have a right to expect
a retraction Of your scandalous arti-
Gle not later than Thursday evening

Notwithstanding the unwarranted
attack, we are giving you an oppor-
tunity to withdraw the same Should
you refuse we will presume that you
are prepared to substantiate your
position and our company will give
you ample opportunity for so doing.
I'VE are handing the newspapers z
