On Saturday last the following edi-
torial appeared in the GAZETTE :
AN onrnacs.
It has finally come to pass that an
item of news cannot be sent over the
telephone without being at once re-
peated to a dispenser of state news.
The managers of the different offices of
the Southern New England Telephone
company have been notified by the
general superintendent to at once for-
ward all news in their respective locali-
ties- to the office in New Haven where
it is turned over to a press association.
Under this order no private message
can be transmitted to any newspaper
in the state over the telephone Without
being repeated to New Haven. The
general manager of the Telephone com-
pany, so we are informed, has boasted
that no private news can be sent over
the wires of his company without its
being reported.
If such a state of affairs exists the
sooner a competing telephone company
is started th”e better it will be for all,
as under the present regime nothing is
private that goes over the telephone
line.
In the early mail Wednesday morn-
ing we received the following commun-
ication from E. B. Baker, general
superintendent of the Southern New
. England Telephone company.

lelieving that tliehlattcr is not the case and
that you would demo to correct a misstate-
ment, 1 take pleasure in enclosing heremth a
copy of the order referred to, which was pro-
niiilgateu for the special purpose of prevent-
in;r employees from repeating any portion of
a conversation made over our wires, .
This company is not interested in any "dis-
penser of news." and gives to no parties. enh-
cr from this office or its local offices, any news
for publication“ In fact our contract. pneveuts
us from transmitting news items for sale or
publication. , ,
The bulletins sent to this office are intended
for the interests of the company only. .
We do not object to newspapers printing the
facts in any matter concerning us. neither do
we propose to allow any one, through suite. to
make false and malicious statements about us.
You are respectfully requested to retract
your statemciit.-with as much prominence as
you made it, otherwise themattcr will be re-
ferred to our attorney for his attention.
Yours etc .

Enclosed in Mr. Baker’s communica-
tion was the order promulgated, for
the sperm! purpose of preventing their
employees from repeating any portion
of a. conversation made over their
wires, which is as follows :
December 15th, 1533.
To Masons AND Onricn Eanori—zns :_—-
Hereafter, no employee of this company Will
give to any newspaper ofiice. newspaper repre-
sentative, or anypther subscriber or non-sub-

have passed over our wires, or any bulletin or
other information that may have been given
them over our wires ; or any information con-
cerning this company's business ; and will not
use this conipanys Wires for imparting infor-
mation to any person whatsoever.

ibis order will be_ suspended by the General
Superintendent Without notice.
E. B. BAKER. Gcn'l. Supt.
Mr. Baker fails to advise us in his
communication what the contract is
that prevents the telephone company
from “transmitting news for sale or
publication,” and also neglects to state
what the i-ztlcrcsls of the company are
that require the managers and chief
operators to forward to New Haven
prompt bulletins of news coming to
their knowledge, nor docs he say how
the knowledge of such news is to be
acquired, consequently we cannot posi.
tively assert that such news when sent
is turned over to “a dispenser of state
news,” and we therefore take Off our
hat and retract that portion of our
statement. Of course we know that
these bulletins are for the “ interests of
the company only,” and we imagine we
can see the interest the company ex-
hibited over the news Of the destruc-
tion of Mayor Roddy McGinnis’ barn
at Cobble Hill. Without doubt the
company displayed more excitement
than did the Cobble Hillians as they
danced about the burning building.
We desire to say, however, that there
is another order requiring news to be
sent to New Haven by managers and
chief operators, which does not contain
the clause relating to repeating news,
etc., nor does it threaten the discharge
of an employee for failing to comply
with its requirements. We have per-
sonal/g, seen and read this order, and if
we remember correctly it bears a later
date than December 1893. The copy of
the order which Mr. Baker so kindly
sends us continue,- however. the same
instructions and confirms our statement
that managers have been notified to
promptly forward to New Haven the
news occurring in their respective lo~
calities. But while Mr, Baker, him-
self, is good enough evidence of the
truth of our Statement, we again most
humbly retract. '
There is another statement in our
editorial of Saturday last which we
most surgically desire to correct, and
that ballast “the general manager of
the Telephone company has boasted
h...“ ....-.. a.» A _ —' ,
. . . . wfi-‘gMu.s_.s.A~—...A.L_. __.._....._.__.
' ' ' ' 'T' '7 ~‘
.<._._.-.-_.. _. ...__..
that no private news can be sent Over
< i thewiresof his company without itsb‘e-
ing reported.” In crediting this state-
ment to' the general manager we did
that individual an injustice, for which
we offer an apology. The remark, so
we are informcd,was made by an official
of the Connecticut Press Association,
which according to Mr. Baker’s letter
has no connect-ion whatever with the
Southern New England Telephone com-
pany, nor does the Telephorc company
turn over its news to the said Press As-
sociation.
‘Vo have endeavored to make. our rc-
traction as prominent as our assertion,
and although the copy of the order
sent us corroborates our statement that
managers have been ordered to forward
news to New Haven, we hasten to re-
tract that statement and extend to Mr.
E. B. Baker the assurance of our most
distinguished consideration.

Narrow Escape.
Lawrence, the six year old son of
Giles A. Gregory, had a narrow escape
from receiving serious if not fatal in-
juries, Wednesday. Thc little fellow
was in the yard on France street when
his uncle Chas. Gregory drovcinto it in
a wagon. He ran in front of the team
and stumbled to the ground. Before
the driver could stop the horse one
wheel of the wagon passed over the
boy’s chest. He was picked up and
taken into the house and a physician
summoned who found no bones broken
and expressed the opinion that the
youngster would be all right in a few
days.

Reporters Not Obliged to Tell.
In the Dr. Lee trial at New Haven,
Wednesday, the prosecuting attorney
made anotherefl’ort to hold a represent-
ative of the New Haven Register respon-
sible for an article which appeared in
that paper last Saturday. Attorney
Blydenburgh called upon William 1t-
Ciark, the Register court reporter, to
take the witness stand and to inform
the court whether he was the author of
the questionable article.
Mr. Clark appealed to J udgc Robin-
son as to whether he was obliged to an-
swer the question and received a nega-
tive reply. He thereupon declined and
was allowed to resume his seat at the
reporter’s desk.
ANOTHER.
Harry '1. Durant, manager of the
Yale Law schoolball nine, and president
of the Connecticut State league, was
before the New Haven City court Wed-
nesday charged with being a spectator
at the Russell-Dillon prize light Feb.‘l(l.
He showed he was there to report the
affair for the Register and was discharg-
ed, the court following the decision
handed down by the Superior court in
Meriden in the case of James L.
O’Ileilly, which declared that reporters
shall be allowed to be present at prize
fights in their official capacity.

the meeting from the honorable host of
occasion, the Rev. Dr. Noble was
called to the choir and J. Belden Hurl-

Were listened to with attention and_thc
argument that a field, rich as is Nor-
walk in antiquated lore should be so
cultivated and developed as to afford,
especially to the youn:, a continuous
course of historic and patriotic educa-
tion was convincing. The company was
unanimous in the conviction of the pro-
priety of the proposed observance, and
of so utilizing the interest which might
thereby be elicited as to be able to
monumentally mark, from “Father-
ford” to the towne’s end,” this old
plantation’s multiplied historic locali-
ties. In grateful rccognition not alone
of Nor walk’s noble past, but of its well
grounded hopes of a still noblcr future
its citizens are bound to generously
contribute to the success of this elevat-
ing and excellent enterprise. -

The reputation of this most celebrated
of modern plays, has been sustained
through a career of 11 years. It has
been here so often that it is unnecessary

Manager Hoyt has succeeded in sc-

matinee the favorite little actress Ullie
Akerstrom. The dates are Friday and
Saturday, April 20th and 215t.
_ Miss Akerstrom is the same bright
little actress as of yore and her cun-
ning feet in the intricate measures of
the quaint gypsy dance, lend addition-
al interest to a very pretty scene. In
the dance “La Millitaire,” she assumes
a martial air surprising in one so petite.
But in the marvellous dance “La Chro-

lug gown “under the glare of the many
colored calciums” presents a spectacle
of beauty that the pen fails to describe.
It must be seen to be appreciated.
