The Mutual Union. Telegraph wns started about two years ngo by the Into John Q , Evans , who up to tlio time of his death , last winter , was president. Its capital was § 000,000. It is proposed only to build lines letwcon this city , Washington and ioston , and to lease them for private use About a year ago , inspired pos- ibly by thp Absorption of tlio Amori- um Union , this company decided to ncronso its capital and build n gonor- 1 telegraph system. To that end it was decided to INCUGABIt TUB 'JAl'lTAL NTO01C n $10,000,000 and issue bonds for 5,000,000. , A ca > h subscription to Ti.OOO.OOO of the stock was oU'ered to lie public last spring upon the terms liat each subscriber to ten shares of * lock should receive ua n bonus a 11,000 G per cent bond. The disposi- ,1011 , of the rest of the stock was not tatcd , but it is understood most of it vas to go to the contractors who have built the company's lines. When the ompany was nearly ready to issue its took to its subscribers , they having aid up their subscriptions nnd ro- eivod thp bonds to which they were utitlod , it vns prevented from doing 10 by an injunction \yhich was ob- ained by Pliny Babbitt. The sub- cribera are now awaiting the result f the Babbitt suit in order to obtain I HI ntock tn which they are ontitlod. Ic is uii'lurstood that the public took buut $4,000,000 of the subscription llertil. Incidental to the contract made to-day is an understanding that 7HE I'ENDISO SUITS hall bo withdrawn so thai the atock all the securities shall be listed upon the stock exchange except the 52,000 * held by one syndicate , which ia to be hold in trust , or otherwise withhold from the market. The lines of the Mutual Union will , under this arrange ment , bo opened in harmony with the Western Union , possibly by , fur a certain percentage of the earnings. It is understood that thu business of thu Mutual Union insures , lot only the interest on ita $5,000- )00 of bonds , but includes a dividend n the stock. The company haa put ip about 16,000 milna of wire , readi ng ] all the principal business centers lorth of thu Ohio and east of theMis- lissippi , and has opened about 460' iflicos. It has competed with the iVestern Union at all points where ita noot profitable business was obtained. Tlio Northern Paoiflo Road- i ' National Associated Prpaa. CIIIOAOO , March 31.
