BELL MONOPOLY
May Be Ousted From the
State on Account of
, Rate Discrimination
Special to the Tribune:
COLUMBUS. March I Is discrimi

ter front the stats of a corporation
operating under a grant, privilege or
franchise which It hss obtained from
ths ststsT
This Is ths question confronting thoss
officials " who are . Investigating the
methods of ths glgantlo Bell telephone
monopoly, as applied to Its operations
in Ohio.
That such Investigation la going on
at tho present time Is . apparent, end
that tha big Bell monopoly Is trem
bling aa to the result is also fully es
, tsbllshed by those who are in touch
with the situation. -
That there Is every reason for the
ouster of such company from operat
ing in the 'Buckeye state, because of its
practices and discriminations In rates
to those who are using Bell telephone
service, now seems to be the opinion
of those who moat thoroughly investi
gated the queatlon. . A
There la hardly a city or town In
Ohio, in which the big Bell monopoly
Is now operating, that there are not a
large number of cases where it may
be proven guilty of rats discrimination.
That ths investigation now going on
Is bound to redound to the benefit of
-the people goes without saying.
.'' The '"expose of the methods of the
Bell monopoly will be far-reaching In
its effect and should that corporation
show the earns disregard for ths peo
ple when such expose comes, aa It has
done In the past. It will not be surpris
ing If It Is eustsd from all fight to
operate la the state of Ohio. . . .

ONE TRUST
IN TROUBLE
V
' From Omaha Paper. ,
The Bell telephone . trust. . meaning
ths great National parent organisation,
has Just experienced one of the most
remarkable setbacks known In . ths
financial history of recent years. It
haa met ignominious failure in an' at
tempt to float $40,000,000 of a new
1100,000.000 bond issus. Although the
company availed Itself of the expert
services of Kidder, Pesbody at Cox. J. P.
Morgan St Co. and Kuhn, Loeb ft Co.,
there was no "float" In ths psper. The
statement" Is made that subscriptions
did not amount to enough to pay for
advertising the Issue.
. Ths plain truth seems to be thot the
parent company has reached the limit
of its ability to float waterlogged se
curities. Those already Issued aggre
gate $400,000,000. Against this vast
liability there stand as sssets the psper
securities of a great number of subsi
diary companies, many of which are In
a bad financial waybonded to the
' limit, upon - plants which have ap
proached the end of their "life" and
are now suffering an enormous depre
ciation in value. -Some of the plants
In ths newer fields of the west are In
good condition; but iri older territory
ths plants ere rapidly becoming out
worn, and the - necessity for continual
renewal hss In many cases reduced or
wholly destroyed dividend-paying power.
In some Instances In ths Middle Statee
bonds of subsidiary companies Vhlch
are carried by the parent concern as
assets at par are unsalable even at one
tenth of their face.
.Knowledge of these conditions, on the
part of the, investing public induced
tbe failure Of the last attempt to In
crease the trust's liabilities. . .

Indeed. - As you probably understand,

to you the Automatic telephone service.
It has been in operation - In our cltv
three years end has given universal

the manual service. We cordially urge
its sdoptlon by any community that
wants the very beat service.

April 14, 1897 PUBLIC OPINION : Exasperating the abominable serv
ice given -by the Terrific: Rates Telephone Company, is a rank imposition on the
public, and our City Fathers should advocate competition or insist'upon giving
the people something for theif "money. , ; ,
April 15, 1897--The Terrific Rates Telephone Company is "reorganizing,
and have purchased the Kellogg, the Armour & Swift and the Smith fif Wesson
factories in the east; and promise the patient public up-to-date telephone service
hereafter. The recent slush in our service was caused by watering our stock.
The overflow or slop-over soaked our batteries, thus cross-circuiting our wires;

most; excellent service hereafter. , ,-; '!.!'.-"-','t-f--V:' V ' ;

work, will install the new-mute-multiple-double-back-action switchboard . and
place new instruments of torture with every subscriber in place of the old. With
this new switchboard we can recite many instances wherein subscribers have
been able to tell just who was calling him up, and sornetimes you can" tell what

What Western Telephone Journal Says of Future
It i only a matter of time when
the , whole North American conti
nent will be gathered under the
banner of the Independents. .
. No movement in the world's his
tory has a brighter outlook than
the one in which yon are engaged.
It hat passed through the stages
of doubt and difficulty. , It haa
survived the attacks of the monop
oly and its creatures. .
'"The mighty wrongs and petty per-
- fidy. . -
The loud roar of foaming . cal
ornny, .v-- '. , " '
The small whisper of the paltry
V few, . - - -. i', ':
And the subtler venom of the rep
tile crew." ; -v
It only remains with courage
and confidence to carry on the
work until every citizen through
out the land shall be supplied with
this means of converting with bit
fellow-men. I do not tee why, at
the most conservative ettimate, the
Independent development should
not reach 10 per cent of the en
tire population within the next few
years. This will require an invest
ment oLapproximately $600,000,000,
and of this you may be sure every
dollar of this money will afford a
far more remunerative inveatment
than aa if the tame amount was
put into railroads, electric lighting
or any other public utility.
Do not be pessimistic about the
future. . As you provide the facili
ties, the people will reach out for
kthem. It.it not many years since
wise men in the Dominion parlia
ment predicted that the receipt! of
the Canadian Pacific railway would
not pay for the axle grease. To
day we find two more transconti
nental . railway t hurrying forward
construction in a' race to connect
the Atlantic to the Pacific. Thia
is only one illustration of how we
may ahow timidity in estimating
the poibilitie of the future.,
