A day later, in Pearl Street Station New York. James Russell's office was filled with journalists from different media companies. They stood in front of his desk, with notes and pencils ready to scribble down his words for publications.
"So, Mr. Russell. May I ask why you filed a lawsuit against the Axelsen & Nielsen Electric Manufacturing and Distribution Company?"
"The reason why I filed a lawsuit against them is simple, gentlemen. They copied my ideas, the electric distribution system, and the light bulbs. They made a slight change to the design and called it their own. It's a shameless move."
"But, according to our reports in Pittsburg, the Axelsen & Nielsen Electric Company said that they are not using direct current, which is the system you are using. They are using alternating currents. So to help us understand the issue, may we ask what is the difference between your direct current and their alternating current?"
