New York, Sept. 2.--President Orton
of the Western Union Telegraph Com>
pany, speaking in connection with the
proposition of consolidating with the
Atlantic and Pacific Companies, nego-
tiations for which consolidating. to all
appearances are entirely broken of.
snys that the statement that it was the
intention of the Western Union Com
pany to advance rates to the West
and elsewhere is wholly incorrect. 81
have no desire to do very large busi-
ness between distant points at the same
price as charged for messages for a
short distance, but have great ambi-
ton to be able to send messages to any
part of the United States at a cost in no
case greater than one dollar. The West.
ern Union can reduce rates to the price
mentioned sooner if it can have the
whole telegraph business of the country
under its control than if its plans are
obstructed by the interference of com
pstinS lines"
