London, 5th April 1892 G.W. Morison Esq, Secretary Edison United Phonograph Co: New-York Dear Sir:- I thank you for your letter of the 22nd ulto: and for the statement of account therein enclosed. The cable you refer to as addressed "Drearless London" of 7th January, which you say was communicated to me explained the condition of our Treasury and conveyed a suggestion looking to its repetition and which you say releases you from the imputation of neglect of informing me of the condition of the Company's finances, I now hear of for the first time. I shall be obliged if you will give me such explanations as you may be able to in order that I may know both as to why I did not receive the information referred to, and why you suppose I did receive it. Will you kindly at the same time give me particulars of the items $4132.24 Office Expenses," which appear to me very large under the circumstances. I do not mean the items in detail but the gross amounts of the principle sub-divisions. Yours faithfully, G.E. Gouraud
