The agreement between the Dominion Government of Canada and the Anglo-American
	Telegraph Company granting to that Company the exclusive franchise for Prince
	Edward Island made in 1904 to remain in effect for five years under which the
	telegraph company would receive an annual subsidy of $5,000 from the Dominion
	Government, and in addition thereto the sum of $1,800 under the law of the
	Province, has expired.  It is stated that contractual renewal in favour of the
	Anglo-American Telegraph Company, a United States based company, is doubtful.
