THE AMERICAN UNION TR1UMpHs.

EXTENSION OF ITS LINES OVER THE UNION AND
CENTRAL PACIFIC OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES DE-
CIsiON OF JUSTICE MILLER.
ST. LOUIS, Oct l. Justice Miller, of the Supreme
Court to-day delivered the opinion of the Court in
the suit of the Western Union Telegraph Company
against the Union Pacific Railroad Company, the
Kansas Pacific Railway Company and the American
Union Telegraph Company.
The injunction previously obtained by the West
ern Union Telegraph Company from the local Pro-
bate Court in Kansas is modified far the ex-
elusive claims of the Western Union Company are
concerned, and gives to the Union Pacific Railroad
Company the right which it sought to exercise OF
transmitting public business over the Kansas
Pacific Railway Companys wires for all telegraph
companies and individuals without discrimination.
This decision sUstalns the demand OF the
American Union Telegraph Company in Febru-
airy last that the Union Pacific Railroad Company
should accept and transmit telegraph business
from and for the American Union Telegraph Com
pany under the acts of Congress relating to the
Pacific Railroads. which provide that those rail-
roads shall at all times maintain a separate and
continuous railroad and telegraph line for the pub
lie without determinations
1t is additional important as a precedent pract-
cay deciding the question OF throwing open all the
remaining telegraph wires of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company and also the Central Pacihc
Railroad telegraph system lmparti3lly Tor the trans
mission of teegrams for the pub lc and all telegraph
companies alike the provisions of all the Pacific
Railroads being uniform IN this respect. Justice
Miller has directed the immediate entry OF an order
finding That the Unio Pacific Ra llrOad Company
has the right to transmit commercial and paid mes
saGes over irs telegraph lines. lhe o!her questions
arising under tue contract of the Western Union
Company with the Kansas Pacific Railway Com
pany are lefJ for adjudication upon final hearing.
