If , as is also intimated , Major Lydeck-
or and Capt. Oroon are procoodimig to jus
tify this conclusion by examining plans
for underground telegraphing , with a
view to practical oxporimtnts in it , they
will be of still more service to the Wlah

ago blockaded by a forest of poles and
wires which are strung in front arid to
time rear of our business buildings and
our leading botch. It cannot lomigTO-
m dim a question whether or not time wires
and poles nest go.
So long as underground telegraphy was
at unsolved problum the 1)001)10 wore
disposed to submit to what semncd to be
a necessity , even at the cost of disfguro
mint to tire city and of danger to tire
lives of its inhabitants. But Chicago
has solved the problem and tire under.
ground conduits of the posbtl telegraph
company have proved that such a system
is not only practicable , but in the cud
cheaper to time companies. It may lie
several years yet before public sentiment
is aroused suflieiontly to demand the removal -
moval of the poles and the placing of nil
wires in underground conduits , but the
time must come before long. The publia
hiss sono rights which oven corporations
are bound to respect , and they will assort
thorn the moment they are assured that
such an assertion will work no private
injury , and will secure a great public
benefit.

it hind got near time first fall in time rap-
