NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Eleven boxes of docu-
ments belonging to the Mutual Union Tele-
graph Company which, it Is alleged, were sur
reptitiously obtained several months ago, were
found today in Jersey City and were seized by
detectives under instructions of Jay Gould.
The nature of their contents is not known.
sEcoND DISPATCH.
1t is now stated that the boxes discovered in
Jersey City today contained documents giving
particulars as to the relations of the Mutual
- MON Telegraph Company with the company
which constructed their lines. A detective
was set in watch over the documents but later
in the day the Mutual Union employees arc
stated to have removed them.
JERSEY CITY,, Jan. 21.-R A. NJ Positive

mated that the boxes contained books and
papers of the Mutual Union Company, which
were got out of the Jurisdiction Of New York
State in view of pending proceedings against
the company brought by Attorney General
Russell, in which proceedings it il alleged that
fraudulent contracts have been made by the
directors of the company with John G.. Moore
& Co. Developments which may follow to-
nights affair may account for the anxiety
shown BY the Mutual Union Company to delay
proceedings.

vote was II, Hubbard's Opposition csndidate),
10; Wilson (Dem.) 80; balance of the 139
votes, scattering. Senators Pilsbury and Gill
fillan arose to question of privilege, and pro-
tested that there was no truth in the report of
the Democratic organ that they were grooming
ex-Gov. John S. Pilsbury for a dark horse
that they would take no part in the dark horse
plan while Window is candidate. They said
they had asked Window to come and enter
the canvass, and that he would be here on
Monday. The opposition already have reso-
luton of censure prepared, and will offer it up
on the Senator's arrival, and they may also
adopt it, Windom's coming at this time is
held to be grave mistake, for his defeat is al
