Kruesi in NY tomorrow, get him to go to Danbury, get estimate for Hartford. "Please see Mr Edison tell him that it is absolutely necessary for the Fall River people to wire the city buildings immediately" should not wait for fire underwriters to "pass on that new cable. They must be allowed to go right ahead. The reason is the city election occurs inside of a m onth and if the Fall River Co does not get the City Bldgs wired before the Election occurs they will have great trouble later on..Steiringer should be sent on to Fall River at once--not next week." "tell Bergmann & Co that they are seriously compromising our business by delaying on castings for Kruesi. This is the most important thing". Fall River directors anxious to get started.
