- Description:
- Typewritten letter from A.A. Schartz, the General Superintendent of the Detroit and Cleveland Navigation Company to D.C. McIntyre, the company's General Freight Traffic Manager concerning their arrangement with the Clark Wireless Telegraph and Telephone Company, sent on October 9, 1906. Schartz tells Mcintyre that their company will pay the salaries of the wireless operators on the steamers, and Clark will furnish the shore operators. The D&C line will also pay half of the Western Union rate for messages, therefore messages are to be brief, and only sent with the approval of an executive officer. The letter is printed on Detroit and Cleveland Navigation Company letterhead with an engraving of a row of nine passenger steamers ordered by size next to a buffalo and a frog standing on rocks at the foot of Niagara Falls. Company executives are listed along the top.
