Mr.. Vail expressed satisfaction over the
esta blshment of direct telephone commu-

talked 10 Denver over the wire before he
went abroad. and so knew that the con-
necton worked all right. But that is
nothing he added We will be talking

already being made TO link up the two
cities. and when they are completed it will
be as easy TO talk TO San Francisco as TO
Denver"
Mr. Vail paid visi, to his offices after
he left the steamer and had conference
with his business associates. but said after
the meeting that he had nothing to add to
what he had already said on telegraph and
cable matters az this time. although he
