New York, Nov. 4.—The famous
Hartje divorce scandal has been out
done In sensational features by a suit
Hied In Bridgeport. Conn., In which
Henry Johnson Lord, a relative of
Richard McCurdy and the millionaire
husband of the beautiful Augustina
Lord, names their coachman. Harry
Cameron.
In a fiery statement. Mrs. Lord de'
dared today that the charges were un
true and that her husband was a cow
ard, liar and scoundrel. This Is what
she says:
"What my husband says about me
and our negro coachman Is a lie. He
says that he will shoot both Harry
Cameron and me on sight. Ho won't.
His Is the sole gnltt. He tried to lure
me Into compromising myself, so he
could get a divorce and run off with
another woman that he loves. He 1ms
ruined my life and so. besides the
coward, he Is a scoundrel, too.”
Sitting In her beautiful home at
Trumbull. Conn- Mrs. Lord' went on
to say she would fight the suit.
"If tho Hartje case hadn't appeared
In the newspapers." said Mrs. Lord,
’’he would not now be suing me for
divorce upon an Imitation of the last
scandal he remembered reading. That
man hasn't one thing sgatnst me;
nothing but one letter that 1 wrotN to
Harry telling him not to quit work
because the rest of the servants were
talking about us. That Is the only
thing, and that I don’t care about—
only my liuaband stole It from my writ.
In/t desk to make evidence when I had
decided not to send It to the coachman
after all.”

The Telephone—
A Natural Monopoly.
That the telephone is a natural monopoly is an admitted
fact, and this very fact has caused us, at times, to experience
hostility that otherwise would not exist. Because the com
modity in which we deal is a natural monopoly it does not fol
low that we are not amenable to municipal and state laws.
We are a natural monopoly simply because two tele
phone systems in one town do not increase the facility of com
munication and do not bring any additional benefits to the
telephone user. We are not responsible for this condition, but
its truth has been demonstrated time and time again.
In every city in which we operate, regardless of how
many other companies are in the *ame field, we exert all our
efforts towards giving satisfactory service at reasonable cost,
and to meeting the demands and requirements of the public.
We stress this point purposely. It corrects a common
error. Unfortunately the belief largely prevails that a corpor
ation, because it is a corporation, gives little attention to the
needs of the public and permits its employes to be indifferent.
Particularly does this belief prevail in the case of a monopply,
natural or otherwise. v
We depend, upon the public for our very existence and
each one of our employes understands that the public must be
treated with courtesy and respectful consideration, no matter
how trivial may be the subject.
We ask that this consideration be extended by the pub
lic to our employes—particularly to the young lady operators.
