ANNUAL REPORT Of
MACKAY COMP PANIES
Extensions Made Without
Issue of Obligations
INCREASE OF RESERVE
Keep Physical Condition of Properly
Up to Highest Point of Efficiency.
General Resume of the
Companies Conditions

New York. February 16lThe annual
report Of the Mackay companies was is
sued this afternoon. 1t states that it
is with satisfaction that Notwithstanding
the reaction in trade during the year
1918 and in marked contrast to the un-
favorable financial showing made by
most railroad systems and other quasi
public corporations, the Mackay company
are able to report that extensions have
gone on as usual without the issue of
obligations and without the use of any
part of the reserve funds. which have
been built up in the past Not only this,
but the reserves have been increased not
so largely as in previous years, but sub
stantially, while at the same time the
physical condition of the properties of the
telegraph and cable systems have been
kept up to the highest point of efficiency.
The unequaled character of the SERVICE
both on land and sea, is being maintained
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-02-17

The Postal Telegraph and Gable company
has extended its system into parts of
Missouri and oklahoma and North Da-
kota, not hitherto reached. and has strung
many additional wires on its poles
throughout the country. The Commercial
Gable company has renewed parts of the
oldest of its three cables between Water
Vile, Ireland and Weston-S Super Mare,
England. The Gott invention by which
the company's submarine cables and land
lines may be Joined together into one
continuous circuit whenever desired, and
the whole operated by Morse instruments
in the Morse code. is in daily use.
Largest in World
Attention is called TO the fact that the
combined land and ocean system is the
largest in the world The Western Union
Telegraph company has larger land line
system, but it owns no cables across the
Atlantic ocean, it merely operates cables
under leases. On the other hand while
one of the Oldest English cable companies
owns and operates a larger cable system
10 the east and far east. yet that COM
pany has few land lines Such as it has
are snort connecting links
The physical properties of the subord-
nate companies are maintained in excel
lent CONDITION. All reconstruction is
charged to operating expenses. 1t is then
stated that the system is in so strongs
a position that the stability of the invest
ment is assured
The Sl2,000000 realized about four years
ago from the sale .of American Telephone
and Telegraph company stock is still pre-
served intact in cash and in the highest
class OF securities, including New York
state and New York city bonds, and this
great fund is ready for emergencies and
extensions
Regarding wireless the report says that
the wireless telegraph continues to dem
onstrate its usefulness in its own field,
which may be defined as communication
between moving points or between a fixed
and moving point. There has been no
development to medify the opinion al
ready expressed that wireless telegraphy
in no way threatens the supremacy of
the submarine cable as a rapid, reliable
and accurate means of communication
