     1.   On October 10, 1997, Triumph Communications and Fiber Services Inc.
(Triumph) filed the above-captioned complaint and Emergency Request for Cease and Desist

unreasonable, and discriminatory practices pursuant to the terms of its tariff and its special

complaint and emergency request with prejudice.  MCI does not oppose this withdrawal
action.

     2.   We are satisfied that granting Triumph's motion to withdraw will serve the
public interest by eliminating the need for further litigation and the expenditure of further
time and resources by the parties and the Commission.                       Federal Communications Commission           DA 97-2432
