The New Telegraph Line.

New York, January 27.--The new
American Union Telegraph Company
opened for business yesterday to Buffalo,
Boston. Baltimore and Canada and inter.
mediate points. The rates charged were
exactly the same as those Of the Western
Union. The officers said they we're not
ready for business. and would not be
until about March I. They had con.
scented to anticipate that date merely to
accommodate the new French Ca.
bic Company, which desired to be-
gin the transmission Of messages to
France and the Continent yesterday.
The rates asked by the latter company
are also similar to those OF their compel.
itors, the AnRlo-American and Direct
Cable Companies. When asked whether
no reduction was intended, the officers
OF tho American Union Company said
the question Of rates had not yet been
considered by the Board Of Directors,
and they could not give any definite In.
formation on the subject.

says: The Union Pacific consolidation
is not unlikely to have some effect upon
Pacific Mail stock. speculation in which
has been very lively Of late. Rufus
Hatch says that Dc Lesseps has money
to build his canal with, and that he Is
sure to do It. In that case the Pacific
Mail line will have an immense increase
OF traffic. But the Union Pacific, BY
not signing the contract now In course
Of negotiation, might compel the Pacific
Mail to lower lie rates, both for passen.
gers and freight. The Pacific Mail
apparently demands $3.50. 900 a month,
while the Union Pacific refuses to give
more than $4,000. II negotiations
are broken Of. Pacific Mail will have to
cut its rates and OF course lose money.
But while that company will have to
ship passengers and freight at . loss
once . fortnight, the Union Pacific will
have TO do Il every day.
