Monopoly of Gable
Business Impossible

There is no cable monopoly pos
sible. The three systems-the
Western Union, the French and the
Mackay-will continue to exist.
The Mackay Companies is q hold
ing organization with no physical
property, but exercising through stock
ownership, lease or contract, operat-
ing control of various companies
owning land lines and cables which
make up the Mackay System. Through
this control all the various properties
are operated as one system to great
advantage in service over what could
be given by these same companies
if operated separately.
The French cables form another
system.
The Western Union System. under
the proposed arrangement for one
operating control over the present
segregated units, will be enabled to
make two distinct advances in the
TRANSATLANTIC cable business:
BETTER SERVICE. This will be
insured by more efficient and econom-
ical working resulting from single
direction over the operations Of both
cables and land lines.
a-PUBLiC ADVANTAGES. The
greater part of the cable capacity has
been and is now unutilixed. II will
continue to lie dormant and unutilized
under existing conditions and .tradi-
tons. The Western Union purposes
to make these wasted facilities useful
to the public by means of new kinds
of cable service.
In addition, the Western Union in
tends to nationalist its land lines by
opening them to all trans Atlantic
cable companies.

The Transatlantic Gable
Situation and Competition

The trans Atlantic cable situation
is as follows:
The Mackay group of seven ca
bles, including the German cables,
owned by or worked in physical con-
nection with the telegraph lines of
that company form one system.
The French cables comprise an in
dependent system, using both the
Western Union and the Mackay land
lines for their United States connee-
ton.
In competition with these is the
Western Union group of cables, eight
in all, owned by three separate COM
panies, two of which are British
companies owning FIVE of the eight
cables.
7sco only Of the British olrned
cables terminate in the United States

A provisional modification of an
arrangement which has existed for
many years has been reached between
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, The Anglo-American Cable
Company and the Direct u. s. Cable
Company, under which the cable sys-
tens of these companies now worked
exclusively in business connection
with each other, but operated and
maintained separately, will be oper-
ated in direct physical connection
with each other and with the Western
Union land system.
Two objects are to be attained by
this arrangement:
First, more efficient and economi-
