The death Of VIM. Orion, president OF
the Western Union Telegraph company,
calls out the following brief sketch of his
life:
Mr.. Orion was born in Cuba, n. Y, June
IA, 1926. From lS45 to the late rebellion
Mr.. Orion was connected with the book
trade, and was a member of a prominent firm
in Chicago. In 1862 he was appointed
collector of internal revenue for the sixth
district Of Chicago, and in 1865 appointed
commissioner of internal revenue at Wash
ington. This Office he conducted with sig.
nal ability, and upon his retirement received
from Mr.. McCulloch, secretary of the treas,
ury, a graceful acknowledgment of his dis
tinguished services. The occasion Of this
retirement from government Office was the
tender of the position of president Of the
United States Telegraph company, unani-
monsly voted by its board Of directors. Mr..
Orion remained at the head of this insti,u-
ton until its consolidation with the Western
Union. which he himself was mainly instru-
mental in accomplishing, when he was cho-
sen vice president Of the companies thus
united. Two years later in 1869, Mr.. Orion
was unanimously elected president of the
Western Union Telegraph company, an Of
flee which he continued to hold till death.

he should go.

thought that the first indebtedness contracted
by a county for this purpose could only be
ten per ccntum of the valuation and that
the add .tional five per ccntum would have
to be voted at u subsequent election, bu,
stated. as this WAS Il matter of construction
OF our state constitutions, he would be in
clined to folloS n decision Of our supreme
court upon this subject. A continuance was
secured in this case. Immediately after,
this company had Simon Reinman Of Cow
ington, this state, bring a suit before Judge
' alcntinc, TO restrain the issuing of these
same Wayne county bonds. Judge Nslen-
tine decided that Only ten per centum of the
county valuation could be voted at a first
election and upon the decision the COM
pany took the case to our state supreme
court. This is the case that is row being
waited for with SO much anxiety by all the
counties that voted bonds to this company.

brought at the desire Of the company, that
they might so before the supreme court

Bishop Clarkson, of the Episcopal do
cese of Nebraska, in an interview concern
ing the charges against Bishop McCo skry,
said the affair is sad and deplorable, but
that the evidence so far adduced does not
convince him of Bishop McCoskry's guilt.
He says Bishop McCoskry has been estima.
ted too high by the press, as he was never
considered as profound a thinker, scholar,
or theologian as Bishop Coke or Hunting
ton, but he was most esteemed for his gent
atty aud warm-heartedness. Bishop Clark
son admits that he has heard some slight
limitations of trouble. If Bishop McCos-
kry is guilty nothing can save him from a
verdict to that effect upon trial by the house
of bishops, when there will be no covering
of anything. The bishop says it teens in
comprehensive that such a man at such an
age should be accused Of such things.
