May Create Trustee.

No method Of disposng OF its Western
Union shares has yet been determined
upon by the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company, according TO an er-
ccUtive official. There are several COURSES
open for getting rid OF the stock. one be-
ing the creation OF trusteeshlp similar
10 that By which the Union Pacific sold
its holdings In the Southern Pacific. II
is believed that this method will meet
with the favor OF the company's dlrec-
tors. in view OF the present low market
value Of securities
Another plan said TO be favored is to
offer the minority holdings of the tele-
phone company in the Western Union TO
the majority stockholders In such an
event an underwriting syndicate would
probably be formed. The loss in selling
the stock is not likely to exceed Si5Do.ooJ
and may 90 as low as 5000 900 The West
ern Union has been returning per cent
on its purchase price and has cost at
least 6 per cent 10 carry, a loss OF 500, o.
90 or more annually. Internal develop

may shortly crystalline in higher than
the present per cent dividends.
The Department Of Justice, IL is be
leved, will allow the company reason
able period for the company to divest
itself OF its Western Union holdings Ap-
proximately half Of the 5000 stockholders
OF the telephone company are women
and for this humane reason il Is the con-
sensus OF opinion that the government
would not be harsh in its treatment OF
the management.

will work out so that no further cause
for complaint may exist either on the

any attempt TO shift or cvade response

about this complete solution"
How the separation of the companies
will affect their organizations and their
service, especially In the case OF the
Western Union, was discussed in many
quarters yesterday. II was too early to
obtain any definite prophecies on the mat
ter. however.

Administrations Gratitude.

10 was argued that the administration
had shown its hand by commencing the
attitude of the American Telephone and
telegraph Company in its efforts TO com
ply with the Attorney Generals interpr'-
tation Of the Sherman antitrust law, and
that hereafter there would be real COM
petition in the telephone business. With
such a condition existing the government.
il is believed. would make no attempt o.
acquire the nations telephone companies.
Referring TO the relations between the

ident. made this statement.
no such thing as dissolution has oc-
CURED. for the reason that no such thng
"a a merger ever occurred in the past.
The relations between the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company and the
Western Union have never been In the
nature OF merger. The development ~
the mutual relations has been OF com

Care has always been taken that moth

The two services are I'm fact not competi-
tive, n there Is IN theory any competition.
II IS because IN some instances the use of
one service may be an alternative FOR the
use OF the other

There is no scthsck in this separation

IS some understanding Of what can be
done and what cannot be done. greater
progress along the lines defined can De cK-

THE Attorney General has been very
considerate Of the material interests OF
the companies, so far as consistent with
his public duty. and this attitude was
clearly reflected by the President. and we
think the problem has been worked out
TO the best interests Of the public and Of
