ALTON Of
TELEPHONE co !.
NE v BUILDING
SEVERAL SITES ARE IN CONTEM-
PLATION BUT LOCAL OFFICIALS
ARE ON-CoMMITTAL. BROAD
WAY OR MAIN PROBABLE.

The fact that the Pioneer Telephone
company will spend approximately
100000 in this city within the next
years assures the patrons of the tele-
phones better service in the future.
Just where the building will be erect
ed, has not been determined by the
officials, but those who are in the city
at present state that they have several
desirable locations under considera-
ton and will select one of these in
the near future.
Mr.. Berry and Mr. Sanders who have
been in the city for several days on
official business, stated yesterday
morning that so far they were meeting
with no opposition to the agreement
between themselves and the city COM
missioners and chamber of commerce
relative to the ten per cent clause, and
had already secured the signatures of
practically all of the subscribers to the
petition.
There is evidently going to be some
rivalry between Broadway and Main
street in securing the telephone build
ing. Both streets have some very de-
srable locations, but the officials who
are here and who have looked over the
ground are nOn-committal and they
will probably not be influenced in the
matter, but select the site best suit
ed to their convenience.
