JOHN PENDER TO SAIL TO-DAY.

THE SEAT TO WHICH HE WAS ELECTED IN THE
WESTERN UNION BOARD NOT YET ACCEPTED.
John Pender, esq, NJ. p, the well-knOwn ca
BILE magnate, returns to England to-day on the
steamship Alaska, which sails at a. m. lie dined
last night with the Hon. William u. Eyarts at the
Union League Club. There were about twenty
guests and they fingered long at the table,
Mr. Pender returns to England without accepting
the seat in the Board of the Western Union Tee-
graph Company, to which ne was elected at the
general meeting on last Wednesday. 1t is under
stood that the delay is caused by his wish to con-
suit his colleague Henry Weaver, managing director
of the Anglo-American Cable Company, who was
elected director of the Western Union at the same
time, and his constituents of the Globe Telegraph
and Trust Company.
Mr.. Pender has not accomplished. 1t is
said, the chief purpose of his visit
to America He sought to secure snch %
q modification of the contract made last
spring by the cable companies with the Western
Union as would throw the cables open
to all land lines IN the United h1d. states states
the Atlantic. In this purpose he was defeated
by the managers of the Western Union, who ex-
pressed perfect satisfaction with the existing ar
rangement. During his visit. however, he was
elected director of the Western Union Company,
and. whiio 10 wrs known py him for some tims
that this compliment was intended, he has
not signlhed bis intention Of accepting the office
An executive officer of the company said yesterday
that, if Mr.. Pender thought hIs election anything
else than mere expression of friendlIness on the
part OF the Western Union, he made very great
mistake. He said that Mr.. PendeTs election had not
affected the price of the stock and that his refusal
to accept the honor if be should not take the seat
would be equally without effect
Mr.. Pender takes back to England no Western
Union stock. 1t is understood that he was anxious
TO do so, but that there were serious obstacles IN
the way. 1t is not impossible that after his arrival
in England satisfactory arrangements may be
made.
