CPW Edison Building, Broad Street, N.Y. September, 17th 1891. J.W. Gladstone Esq., Edison Manufacturing Company, Orange, N.J. Dear Sir:- I hand you herewith, copy of a communication which I have received from the Canadian District Manager of the Edison General Electric Company, Mr. Barr, in regard to the shipment of batteries into Canada. Mr. Barr is of the opinion that these cells are smuggled into Canada by Rathbun & Company, and it is intention to try and stop it by notifying the Canadian Officials of his suspicions. I shall be very glad indeed if Mr. Barr can succeed in stopping this irregularity; it spoils or legitimate trade. Yours truly, A.O. Tate Enc. C. [V.?]
