Bell Company Fusion Rumors Stir New England Utilities
The article denounces a sprawling consolidation involving the American Bell Telephone Company and New England interests. It questions capitalization levels, stock valuations, and the involvement of the Jewell wovalists, Western Union history, and the scope of a New England consolidation. It criticizes extreme leverage and warns of high charges and dividends amid rapid corporate growth. The piece then shifts to a historical/geographical note on Ischia and Vesuvius with ancient references.
