Practical Dlvlstoa sf "Bells Bosioess" la tbs Stots Said to bs so Tapta Wit aiflftefl Will Qo to the.tronjer Coapaoy At Oorbssi. That Is aa i n tereati ng aad not al together unexpected rumor which comae from Durham relative to a deal between the later-State aad Southern Bell telephone companies, both of which have exchange la Wilmington oad la other of tbe larger cities of Hnik nm atlas, am wofeb to to the effect that an amicable agreement baa been reached between the official, of the two corporation, according to the terms of whieh there will be a practi cal diviaion of the "hello business ' la th. State. Both companies for aome time paat had been Indulging in cut throat competition at several point, in North Carolina, but recently evi deneee of more friendly relatione hare found their way to the surface and in Durham It has lately become an open secret that a big deal is on be tween tbo two. Just what it is. of ficials of the company refuse to say, but 0 division of the terri tarry to atroogly hinted and the rumor his been all butauthorired. Developments are expected, however, by Jon. let. Mr. W. W. Shaw, general manager of the Inter-State Company, was aeen at headquarters ia Durham this week and he refused to deny or confirm the rumors, it to said that by the agree ment the Inter-State people get con trol of the Durham field, that the Bell will gat Balelgh or aome other good telephone town aad that there is to be a diviaion la all parte of the State, Wilmington falling to the lot of the Bell people. While the above is mostly conjec ture, atlll there Is something la the re port. Sometime ago two month, or more tbe Bell company .topped all of its workmen in Durham, leaving a partially reconstructed exchange. Since then the .olid tor. forltbe Bell Company hare all quit work and ask for only aaahbuainem aa come. Ite way. In Wilmington a abort time ago to waa announced that the Inter State people would reconatruct their exchange here and put their wires un derground at tha earliest possible mo ment, bat tbe absence of any active step in that direction and the half hearted way la which the Chamber of Commerce agreement for a long-term eervioe with the Bell Company waa fought by the Inter-State people, lenda high color to the rumoryohieh have bow come. Assistant Genera Manager Crews, of the Bell Company, who waa here during tbe Chamber of Commerce fight, also let certain little thing, "drop" which with ones ear to the around can now be heard to echo significantly and all thing, considered it looks very much like an abandon ment of the WUmiagton field to the Southern Bell. Speaking of condi tions in Durham, the homo of the Inter-State, tbe Herald of that eity said yesterday: "It to learned from what to consid ered good authority that tha Bell ex change will etooa eliber early lo next mnnth OF lv In Februarv. That does not mesa that the exchange will close entirely, bat it win close a. an exchange for suoaerinera. r rom una on it will be used aa a ton exenange and for long distance service. - Just what to tha nature of the deal cannot be learned at this time. One thing la certain the Durham subscri bers will be accommodated over the Interstate system and the Bell will have charge of the long dlatant bust neea. Just whether the Interstate has bought the Bell out or toto neid. or whether, ea mentioned in the Herat d of yesterday, that there has been a di vision of territory throughout tbe Bute, cannot be learned for certain at tbto time."
