Broken Cables,

LONDON, Oct 6.--Both the Gould cables
between Europe and America are broken.
1t is supposed here that the break is near
the Cornwall shore and that ships
anchor caused the accident.
New YORK, Oct. 6.-The information at
the Western Union Telegraph Office in
New York is quite at variance with
the above. Both the American Tor
Could cables are broken about
seven hundred miles from Cano, Nova
Scotia, The company is informed that the
steamer Faraday is in that vicinity Crap
ping for the Bennett cable, and it is sur
missed that she may have accidentally fouled
the American cables and severed them.
They say this accident leaves the pool six
cables, and that, under the pooling arrange
ment, the Western Union, the lessee of the
American Gable Company, will receive its
full proportion of the POOLS earnings the
same as if all the wires were in operation.
LONDON, Oct THE Bennett Mackey
cable, which was only recently laid be-
tween Europe and America is broken. II
is supposed the breakage was caused by ice
bergs.
Only one of Gould's cables is broken-the
other has something pressing upon the wire
itself. A test is being made to fix the pre-
else locality of the trouble A delay OF
three or four months is expected.
