TELEGRAPH WAR.

The Impending Conflict Beficeen the Vest

f,anieS- HO,r the Former Hopes to Drtre

Washington Special
A gentleman who las had large experience
in Geographic organization and management
makes the following prediction as to the
course likely to be pursued as consequence
of the impending contest between the Amer
lean Union and the Western Union tele-
.raph companies. This gentleman says
there are indications that the approaching
telegraph war between these companies will
be so fierce that all its predecessors will ap-
pear as skirmishes in comparison with it.

est in the Atlantic & Pacific com
pany. the last of series of competing COM
pguies which had come into existence four
or five years earlier, and which had, one by
one, fallen victims to the pressure of crcum-
stances and become the property of the West
ern Uaion company. The latter company at
once began closing up the smaller offices of
the Atlantic d Pacific company, and running
wires between the main offices of the two

wires of either company might be worked by
tie other. The working force of the Allan
tic & Pacific company we're reduced gradu-
ally in the main offices, which remained
open, and branch lines il the cities were
closed up entirely. The low tariff which
the Atlantic & Pacific had established was
abolished. A skeleton of m independent
working organization was, however. kept IN
| existence ready for a contingency, which
was we'll understood by all who are familiar
| with the history of the telegraph in this
country. That contingency is at hand. The
American Union company Is about to open
its wires for business under circumstances
which promise vastly more Tor its stability
than any which have atteuced the beginning
| of any of its predecessors IL the line of com
petent telegraphy. Already it is reported
that the Offices of the Atlantic & Pacific
company are being reopeDed by the West
ern Union in localities where the new
company has arranged to open offices
Il is also reported tina. the wires of the Cont
mental Telegraph company are to be com
pleted from New York TO Washington, under
tie auspices of the Western Union company
and that both the Atlantic i Pacific and tht
Continental will be used by the Western
Union IS dummies to fight the American
Union with. The rates will probably be re
duced by the Atlantic & Pacific and Cont
mental companies as low as. and perhap
lower than, the American Union can affort
10 60. while the Western Uniol
rates will remain as they are now
The effect of this will be that th
Western Union business will be much re
duced at its regular offices, but that CON
pany will work its wires, if circams:ance
warrant, from the offices of the Atlantic an
Continental companies. If, in the course c
time, these tactics prove successful, and tt

PRINCE DE MONACO.

Il Famous D,corce Case in Ron,e-fhe
D.cEess Of Hamilton Secures a Papat
Dissolution Of Her .HdrriGae.
Rome Cable to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The question still agitates the lalty and
the clergy here regarding the fair duchess of
Hamilton seeking Papal divorce from her
husband. the Prince de Monaco. 1t is big
and broad question, brought to the very
threshold Of the church in its capital city. If
what was refused the real Tudors in Henry
VIII. Can be granted to the questionable line
of the Siuarts IL the duchess of Hamilton,
then indeed will serious issue grow out Of
the hitherto hard and fast virtue in vincu-
lun 1natrimonii, and the door of divorce
may readily be opened by any besleger.
1t Is ged that the duchess Is influenced
toward tbs appeal for divorce on the
grounds that she was unduly influenced in
the matrimonial tie by her mother, the
dowager duchess, and by the said dowager's
particular friend. the late Emperor Napoleon
Bat VOLTA lea autre chose There lived in
Vienna, and still lives there, handsome
Austrian duke, who has oft visited Paris and
the principality of Monaco; and for him.
like many bonnie laidies devoted to Annie
T.owrie, the Duchess would ''lsy me- doom
and dee.' Here is the real undue influence.
And 10, here too, the dowager's repeated
power, for she loveth not the prince, but the
duke. Thus speaketh the qu;dnuncs Of gos-
siping Rome.
Bot reigning prince, if even the loins
and quarters of Grimaldi buccaneer an
cestory. intermarried with all the Bourbon
blue bloods of the day, will not tanely sub
nit to be thus wooed, won and undone! AL
belt his dominion is but a square mile OF
rocks and olive trees, of lemon grounds aud
orange groves, and his standing army like
"Falstaff's" guard, still it is the wealthiest
square mile, the gaudiest guard, and the
greatest principally in the world for rou-
Iette and rouge ct 2oiri Where so much Is
hazarded in funds the prince has learned
uaught to risk in cardinal cards or Austrian
tricks. He will not be unloosened. he says;
but princes propose and popes dispose.
To-day society in Rome is amazed ct the
reported ponti6cial action in this famous
case. 1t is announced on apparently trust
worthy authority that the cardinals decreed
the dissolution of the marriage contract, aud
that the Pope has confirmed the decree. The
matter has attracted almost universal atten-
ton here, and is the general topic Ct con-
versation in all social circles.

It's face, head. neck, arms, and
bust, as we'll as its hair, were SINH

hands, but coarse, noppy hair ike the

place. The lower portion of the body. from
the middle or waist downward, resembles
that of a shark. the tail being covered with
q hairy substance similar to that of the
