Owners of Telegraph System
Defend It
j J. J. Patterson, A. E. Kindell, F. Ft.
j Muir, George W. Woodruff and the oth
j ers, who own the private tcbgraph sys
I tem, complaint against which was made
at th? council meeting Monday night,
indignantly deny ihe charge that their
! wires are dangerous on account of Are
or otherwise. They think the charges
against their system were inspired
from malice as much as anything else.
J Speaking for the others coucerned, as
as well as himself, Mr. Patterson today
said:
I "The statement made before the fire
department that our little private tele
graph line is a dangerous tire trap we
I pronounce to be both false and ma
licious. I understand that the com
plainant against our system said that
our wire ran within six inchcs of one of
the primary light wires. Thi* is false,
"We will say also that the com.
plainant never visited one of the resi
dances connected with our private wire
and therefore knew nothing of what he
talked and made his charges absolutely
without grounds.
| "We will take pleasure in showing
any member of the fire department or
city council or any unbiased electrician
our fire protection. We are equipped
with fuses, lightning arrestors and
switch boards. Our lines are kept up
and in good condition.
"Those whose residences are con
nected with this system own their own
houses and they, have spared no pains to
protect them from danger of fire.
I "All the wires except one loop at
Ninth avenue were put up by an expert
electrician.
