Independent Telephone Systems
Are Preparing Gigantic Merger
With Long-Distance Connections
At
Concerning this subject the Mobile
It is stated in some of the leading
papers of the country that the In
dependent and Home Telephone com
panies is planning to arrange traffic
connections with each other and thus
cover a greater mileage of long dis
tance phones than any non-independ
ent systems in the country. While the
officials of the Home systems in this
section have given out nothing of their
intentions in the matter, It is reason
able to supose that they will affiliate
with other independent systems and
that by the plans contemplated they
will hare a much greater long dis
tance system than the Cumberland
or any other company. The Home
company expects to make its way
from here to Jackson and Gulfport;
it is already arranging to connect
the Meridian exchange with Mobile
and this will be done in a very short
time. It Is reasonable to suppose at
these places it will connect with other
independent long distance lines.
Mobile the Home Company is grow
ing and expects soon to be connect
ed with Birmingham, having secured
the right of way. The immense prop
osition will be considered at a meet
ing of the International Independent
Telephone Association which will con
vene in Chicago on December 1, 2, and
3.

it
Register of yesterday contains the
following, which shows the greatness
of the proposition:
The long-rumored merger of the in
dependent telephone lines appears to
be near a consumation. It Is be
lieved that the convention of the In
ternational Independent Telephone
Association at Chicago next December
will bring the proposition to a focus,
but the so-called merger will be In
.the nature of a traffic arrangement
with a gigantic Independent long dis
tance telephone corporation. When
this undertaking is'a completed fact
it is said, It will be possible to talk,
to any point in the United States over
lines of an Independent telephone cor
poration.
According to rumor the proposed
creation of an Independent long dis
tance telephone company will extend
further and bring about direct com
petition with the telegraph lines, It.
being suggested that the new company
will cater to both the long distance
telephone calls of the independent
companies and the public at large as
a telegraph company,
the long distance telephone connec
tions complete have been installed as
far south as Bessemer, Ala., and that
it is possible at the present time to talk
over the long distance telephone wires
from that point to any given point

north or east,
Mr. W. H. Bryant, vice president
and general manager of the Mobile
Home Telephone Company, yesterday
afternoon declined to discusB the re
cent developments in the proposition
from an authorlatlve standpoint. He
said that there are in the United
States at present more than 10,000
home, or independent, telephone com
panies, operating about 4,200,000 sep
erate and distinct telephone instru
ments in more than 20,000 cities. Ac
cording to Mr. Bryant this total of
telephons in operation by the inde
pendent companies is something like
700,000 more instruments, or tele
phones, than any and all non-inde
pendent telephone companies in the
country.
All, or practically all, of the inde
pendent companies in the country are
affiliated members of the Internation
al Independent Telephone Association,
the next convention of which meets
in the Auditorium hotel at Chicago on
December 1, 2, and 3, next. It is un
derstood that urgent requests have
been sent out to the independent tel
ephone companies to be represented
at this convention as matters of vast
importance ;.re to be considered.
While it is not so stated, it is believed
these matters of vast importance deal
with the proposed affiliation with the
independent long distance telephone
corporation mentioned by Mr. Hubbell.
