pany Organized in Boston.
Boston, Sept. ..

stock of S. 600, ,OOO divided into shares of
S25 each. No person will be permitted to
hold more than 500, 900 worth. The object
of the company is to purchase or construct
and operate independent telegraph and cable
lines In the United States and Canada and
teen Trustees or Directors, of whom seven
shall represent the citizens and six the te-
legraphers. The subscription books will be
opened September Is. Lines will be built
or purchased and operated no faster than

means. Every employe and officer must be
a stockhoder. The cOrpOratOrs named in
the document are Eugene j. OCOnnor,
Charles Z. Chute and Thomas F. Greene,
of Boston.
Governor Butler is said to be one OF the
heavy hackers of the new company. The
organization is an outcome of the recent
telegraph strike. Its projectors say that
they will have one hundred wires Ill four
cables of twenty-five wires each in opera
tiOn between Boston and New York before
January /, and eventually will extend their
lines throughout the country. They may
combine with the Baltimore IL Ohio but
will not under any circumstances unite with

use the straight Morse system.
The articles of incorporation provide that
the wires in cities shall be placed under
ground SO far as practicable; the telephone
patents may be purchased and telephone

istence Of the company shall be fifty years;

| shall have been subscribed to the stock,
| work on the construction of the lines shall
| begin.
To guard against any selling out OF the
company or any hawking Of its stock about
the market, ample precautions have been
| taken. Every officer and emplOye of the
| company will be stakeholder, and thus the
| company will be managed and controlled by
| the men who will do the practical work upon
| it. There will be no increase in the capital
stock without corresponding extension OF
| the franchise There can be no selling out
| or consolidation, and by economical and in
telligent management the rates for tele-
| graphic and cable messages will be largely

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent

From our Regular Correspondent
WAsHIBGToN. ID. c., Sept. l, 1888.
Our neighbOring city of Baltimore is
getting ready for another "Oriole," and
the streets of Washington are covered
with advertising posters and pictures,
which local paper aptly says constitute
the best part of the, show. Baltimore is
pretty good town and generally does
things up according to Hoyle, but there
are several thousand people in Washing
ton who won't be fooled a second time in
this Oriole business. Last year the whole
city turned out and endured the discom-
forts of jam on the trains going aud
coming and the crush of the crowds in
the streets and on returning home none
could tell what they went for, as nobody
rem embered having seen anything beyond
the crowd. All these will he satisfied to
stay at home and look at the handsome
posters ON the walls this year The pur
pose is to make the OriOle festival to
Baltimore what the Mardi Gras is in New
Orleans, but it is not likely to have the
same interest to outsiders Still it is a
pleasant thing for Baltimore AID her
pubic spirited citizen can well afford to
keep it up for home amusement The
pickpocket and swindling fraternity al
ways reap harvest on such OCcaciOns
and they are reported to be making plans
for it already These gentry are not as
plentiful in Washington now as they
were under the old police regime, and
robberies and confidence games are re-
markably few of late.
Early last spring an enterprising ex-
British naval officer opened Il civil service
institute in this city He went to con
siderable expense in fitting up rooms and
engaging teachers. His institute was
modelled after those in England. He
met with poor encouragement, and now
he has retired in disgust from the field.

A Poor Outlook for Depositors.

indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 2.
Levi Ritter, receiver of the Indiana Bank
ing Company, made his final report to The
Court Friday, and it must be said that the
outlook for the depositors in the ill-fatet
concern is not especially encouraging TIL,
liabilities are placed at $S05, ,217.75, anC
the face value OF the assets at S999, 894. 67
while their appraised value falls as low as

to pay $4,000 on rediscomted paper held
by Eastern houses, which reduces the actual
final value of the assets to about twenty
seven per cent of the liabilities 1t will
probably be several month before the cred
