EASTERN intelligence.
The Situation at Albany Practi-
cally Unchanged.
THE DUKE OF NEW YORK STILL
VERY CONFIDENT.
An Election or Adjournment to
Be Forced To-day.
DON PIATT AFTER THE PRESI-
DENTS SCALP.
Another Telegraph Combination
Effected.


New YORK, June 6. The Times Albany
special says; The Administration men are
confident that some sort of compact has
been agreed upon between Conkling's
friends and Democrats, by which the cleo
ton of two Republican Senators is to be
certain that an attempt is to be made to re-
convene the Democrats in caucus, and the
main object is to bring the Democrats to
vote at the first opportunity for a mo-
ton to adjourn sine die.
Conkling said to an intimate friend yes
terday: I | feel very sanguine as to the re-
suit of my fight. I was never more hope
full. l shall return to Albany the moment
my friends think my presence necessary,
and remain there during the struggle"
One Of the stalwarts, who has been
managing the contest in Albany, and who
ought to know everything that bears upon
the contest, said to a Times reporter: "All
the money in New York will not defeat
Conkling. / know three half-breeds who
are ready to- go over to him when their
votes will elect him, and we lave only to
oCSuAO ia llOlC fOtco w Aldh6 OuT buCceH5
assured. I believe we will get these six
votes during the coming week, and if we
do, you will see a stampede for Conkling
which will astonish you. If we don't get
them, the stalwarts will stand firm, and
there will be an adjournment without an
election. Gov. Cornell will then call a
special session Of the Legislature just be-
fore the election next Fall, and then If the
half-breeds dare risk the success of the Re-
publican party at the polls. they can carry
this question before thepeopie and continue
the fight in a popular election. On Thorn
will rest the odium of turning the Repub-
lican State Of New York over to the Demo-
Gratis. Reckless as they are, / don't believe
they are ready to accept such a response
bility as this"
The news comes pretty straight that some
wavering ones, in the hope of forcing q
concentration and adjournment, will raise
Conkling's vote to 3S or 40 tomorrow.
Another Telegraph Monopoly.
MONTREAL, June Information was
received late last night from New York
that a deputation of the Dominion Tele-
graph Company now there, composed OF
Hon. J. Abbott and Andrew Allen, have
arranged p~reliminaries with the Western
Union Telegraph Company, which controls
the Dominion Company, for an a~malgama-
ton OF the two companies, thus forming
another gigantic monopoly. The plan is to
form a new company that will have the two
lines forever, the Western Union guaran-
teeing 8 per cent to the Montreal and 6 per
cent to the Dominion, the Western Union
to get half Of all the earnings above these
percentages, and the other moiety to go to
the new company. The dodge is adopted
to evade an Act of Parliament passed to
prevent the amalgamation of these COM
panies. A meeting of the stockholders OF
the local companies will be called at once
to ratify it. This new piece Of work by
Jay Gould will cause a terrible cutlery in
Canada.

The Morey Letter Again.
WASHINGTON, June 8.-Although the
Morey letter has passed from the public
mind, it is a fact that the Government
law officers in New York have been very
busy for some time In following clues they
have obtained. 1t is known they have met
with signal success and fully expect at an
early day to be able to fix the conspiracy
and forgery on the real authors Of the
