[D8238ZBF], Letter from Theodore Puskas, Joshua Franklin Bailey to Sherburne Blake Eaton, May 15th, 1882

Editor's Notes

[draft enclosure to D8238ZBE] Enclosed find contract for Italy (summarizes terms). Dissuces difference in terms from those cabled from Milan regarding experimental period; expect further changes in what % of shares comes back to Continental Co. Character of Italian market (small, non-industrial); gas consumption (low): lighting will be slow to pay, so can't get cash out and shares in exploitation co would be worthless for years to come. Think we've imposed the limit on what the exploitation Co can pay and still succeed; think out plan will pay better than that being followed in England.
