The VAIN attempt Of Mr. jay Gould to
avail himself of his facilities as controller If
the Western Union Telegraph Company to
profit by the money he advanced, on the
security of the U. S. Treasury, 10 buy the
vote of Ohio last Tuesday, was referred TO
in yesterdays GAZETTE The method OF
that attempt is described az follows by the
Wall Street Nems ofyestertlay
1--WE learn from no less authority Than
high officials in the Western Uuion that The
company had an agent in every county iii
Ohio Oh Tuesday night, and that through
them the election returns were sent in, and
furnished TO the press. This may explain
how it was that the dispatches We're nearly
all Of one tenor, and made the republican
majority over Is, 900, with thu chance of its
exceeding 10000. PROFESSIONALLY Mr..
Gould's idea was that ty working up the
biggest kind of figures there would be a per-
feet rush t. buy stocks Wednesday morning,
the market would open up one or two per
cent, and be would be on hand to supply
all wants. 1t is certain that he was show
ing private dispatches through the day,
each one increasing the size of the supposed
m. ,rity, and in the last hour his private
spatches had raised it to $4,000. 1t did
happen that there was a little rush at the
opening to cover shorts in Union Pacific.
but the buyers were little astonished to
fLd the stock in supply by the ream. This
gave away" the whole business and there
was no more rush to buy Union Pacific or
anything else"
The votes of the largest States in the
Union are bought by monopolists specially
favored by the administration, and are used
by them as means to effect successful speculat-
ing stock operations. Patriotic and reputa-
be men do not see in this any great induce
ment to persevere in their efforts to main
tain the supremacy of the ''grand old party"
