cabinet meeting to-day , and discussed
to unusual length. It is defiMtoIy SF
known that a message will bo sent to jV {
both houses on Monday , including
the legal opinion in support
of the ground taken , which ground
is expected will be that
the best policy would bo for congress Nil
jointly ask the return of the bill
without signature for modification. Pa
There ia a difference of opinion as to PaMi [
the exact decision reached , but the

of which " 0. P. H. " i m > bright and

following extract from " 0. 1' . II. V
letter : "Just before thu pissngo of
that law wo had n bpicial rate on
flour to last fjr a certain period ,
but as neon as thu tinio expired
the tpccial rate was withdrawn , and

is to bo madu "general nnd equal all

liowover , that " 0. P. U. " does not
want to bargain for. Ho wants the
low rate , but ho wanta it for thp ( lour
manufactured at the Oakdalo milland
that the law prohibits , "honco these

ers of the ilour weep ? Tney obtain
the benefit of tlio low rate instead of

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hall bo withdrawn so thai the atock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.
