The agreement of RIM gives the Bell I 'ompany the exclusive right to the IMP of our streets for its Imieiness and we ere precluded from permitting stay other company during the period I have mentioned to use our streets for a telephone business.

Fur toy oWn part, I cannot see any serious obleetiona to the taming of the main streets for freight purposes after mid- night.

Great caution should he exer- cises, in eonstruction aod I believe we will make a great inistitke if we do not employ /14 lllll • thoroughly competent men to supervise it. Fire Protection.
