Respectfully,

The Pere Marquette Line Steamers. -
The officials Of the Hill company in
charging bad faith declare that the P.
M. officials at first asked for an extern
sion of time in which to pull away
from the Kenosha service and that
later the agreement was repudiated.
Copies of the agreement signed by the
officials of the two companies are be.
ing displayed to prove the contention
Of the managers of both lines.
1t looks now as if the competition
would continue in Kenosha indefinitely
and it is not improbable that the Hill
company will make immediate plans to
get into the fruit carrying business be-
tween Milwaukee and the Michigan
ports.
The proposed organization of the
West Shore Transit Company is about
the only new thing to be brought out
in this new contest between the two
companies.

Pere Marquette Steamers
and Hill Co. Take Up Old
Competition With VigOr.
CHARGE BAD FAITH IN DEAL

Hill Company Claims That Marquetts
People Are Sailing on Agreement
and the Latter Company Claims Hill
Failed to Make Good His Part.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1914-08-06

All bets appear to be off in the re4i
cent negotiations for the elimination
of competition between the Hill Steam-i
boat Company and the Pere Marquette
steamers and the agreement signed bv
the companies some days ago has been
repudiated and the old competition is !
on again stronger than ever. Captain |
Hill has charged the Pere Marquette
people with bad faith and the latter
have charged that Captain Hill failed
to keep the agreement. Whatever NAV
be the cause the P. NJ. steamers are
still docking at Kenosha and it is de-
cIared that they are going to continue
to dock here for some time to come.
The Pere Marquette Company gave out
statement over the signature of the
company today declaring that the
whole deal is off and that there are at
present no further negotiations pend
ing. Here is the statement of the
company:
The Pere Marquette Line Steamers
are running and viii continue to run
steamers daily between Kenosha. Wau-
kegan, Port Washington, Milwaukee
and Chicago. Capt. L. L. Hill made us
proposition to sell controlling in
terest in che Hill Steamboat line, with
the understanding that he was to act
as general manager of the new line, to
be called The West Shore Transit
Company. The contract for Can't. Hill Is
services as general manager of the
West Shore Line was to be for term
of five (5) years; papers were drawn !
up and ready to send to the secretary
OF state at Madison when Capt. HiHi
called up by telephone and said he
would have to go back on his agree
ment. At another and later conference
an agreement was entered into and
signed by both parties contingent. how
ever, upon the Hill Steamboat Line
taking over the contract and lease Of
our Chicago terminal, but the terms of
our Chicago terminal contract could,
not be changed to suit Capt. L. L.
Hills demands, the details of which It'll
is not necessary to go into here
Therefore, the whole deal fell through.
We do not believe in airing our BUSH
ness through the newspapers, and if
Mr.. Hill had not been so previous with
his statements to the public before this
deal was closed, this article would not
have been necessary. Thanking all our
friends for the business they have Civ
en- US and hoping for continuation of
same, we remain,

ALL HAIL UTAH CELERY.

While in Salt Lake, Lord Decies
made one remark which will be enthu
siastically approved by all Utahus. 1t
did not relate to the double-tracking of
a great railway system, nor to the
state Is marvellous resources in coal and
iron, but to the modest subject of Utah
celery. HUtah celery is the finest
have ever tasted,' said Lord Decies.
For the information Of Lord Decies, we
wish to state that if any traveller ever
has tasted finer celery he has not made
the fact known to the world. That IA
nous English poet who wrote the I'M
mortal code TO Grecian Urn " could
scarcely do Justice to all the magic
qualities of Utah celery. We will not
attempt, therefore, to convey In mere
prose the Utahn's opinion of his eel
cry. Lord Decies, however, will be q
good missionary. Wherever he goes he
will tell his friends that Utah has the
best celery in the world. It's merits are
not we'll enough known beyond the bor-
ders of the state. Every traveller who
comes here aud partakes Of it immedi-
ately becomes a poet in his panegyric.
This praise Of Utah celery, however,
is said with no idea to disparage other
fruits Of Utah IS soil. All our vegeta-
bles are aristocrats.
