J.W. Gladstone, Esq.,
Edison Manufacturing Company,
Orange, N.J.
Dear Sir:-
That progress are you making with the new zinc connectors, we ought to get these in service at the earliest possible moment.
Did Do you ever receive copies of the requests of the United States Government for bids on electric installations; I think we could submit estimates for some of the material used by the Government if we had this information. I am looking the matter up here.
The bottles of oil which you send us should bear a label indicating the cell with which each is to be used; [illegible] supplies this oil hap-hazard without any regard whatever to the size of the cell, and the chances that all the batteries sold by him have been set up with an insufficient quantity of oil. Why not label these bottles with the letter by which the cell is designated?
Yours truly,
A.O. Tate
