A TELEGRAPH WAR.

Controversy Between the Baltimore and
Ohio and Western Union Companies
Over the Possession OF an Onice I'm PHIL
adeIphia.
PHILADELPHIA, March "A controversy
between the Baltimore and Ohio and Western
Union Telegraph companies, over the posses
sion Of an office in Third street, eliminated d
to-day in tho forcible election Of tho Western
Union operator. The contest has been kept
up since Friday last. Up to that time, the
Office, which Is merely fenced-off corner Of
n brokers' office, was used by the Western
Union, without rental, 1t is said, and subject
to be vacated at days notice. The Balti-
moro and Ohio company recently obtained
q lease of the office from the tenants OF
the building, but the Western Union
operator, acting under instructions, refused to
leave, even after his wires were cut of. He
remained there for thirty-six hours without
food or light until relieved by another man,
who crawled over tho transom, the door be-
ing locked and the key held by the brokers.
The matter came TO q climax this afternoon
by the Baltimore and Ohio company sending
q force Of men to the place, who elected the
operator, threw the Office fixtures into the
street, and took charge.
Besides being forcibly elected from the
Office, the Western Union operator, William
Conn, was arrested and taken before mags-
trate, charged with forcibly entry, he having
entered the place in an irregular way to re.
lieve tho operator who had watched there on
Friday and Sunday.
William H. Conn, George Ryley, and An
drew p. Sell, employees of the Western Union
company, were subsequently, arraigned be-

and forcible entry and detainer. They were

"a Lie out OF whole cloth,

Ex-Marshal Strobach was again before Mr..
springer's committee yesterday. He desired
to make statements derogatory to the ex-
aminers who had examined his accounts, but
the evidence was "hearsay" the committee
objected to receiving 1t. The witness said
the statement of Mr. Brewster Cameron that
a deputy who had been an embezzler was
still in his employ was "a lie out of whole
cloth"
ooh, Mr.. strobach," replied Mr.. Hemphell
"the committee cannot allow statements Of
that character
Excuse mo-" said the witness, "T,ve only
been in this country twenty-five years, and
don't know what you call q lie."
In regard to the alleged conspiracy Of
Messrs. Strobach and Turner to remove
United States District Attorney Smith that
Mr.. Turner might be appointed, Mr.. Stro-
bach said: THAT sonsrir"oy e !. we. 9

trict. Mr.. Smith had dismissed the grand
jury before it had an opportunity to do work.
The people thought that something ought to
be done. / wrote out charges, and, being a
prominent republican, 1t was thought that
would be proper person to ask the removal
of Smith. i went to Garfield, and he said
that Smith had been appointed at the in
stance of Sherman, and he did not feel like
removing him."
"Did not Smith dismiss tho grand jury be-
cause there was no money!" was asked.
There was plenty Of money" replied the
witness, "and I'll tell you how it was spent.
Smith demanded in open court that the
charge be investigated and that witnesses be
sent for. l refused to pay out money for
witnesses, believing that Smiths case was a
personal matter, and asked the department OF
justice for instructions. Twas ordered to pay
the money for witnesses, and that was the way

FOR THE PRINTERS PROTECTION.
Typographical Unions Opposing the Pas

Typographical Unions Opposing the Pas
sage OF Dorsheimer's Copyright Bill.
A committee of six from the Typographical
Union of the city of Philadelphia arrived in
this city yesterday to oppose the international
copyright bill introduced by Mr.. Dorsheimer,
of New York, which has been favorably
reported to the house from the judiciary
committee and placed on the calendar.
The representatives of the union expect
that in the event that they arc unable to
secure opposition enough to defeat the bill,
they will, at least, be able to secure an
amendment providing that no book shall be
entitled to be entered for copyright in the
United States unless the composition and
and other work incident TO its publication
shall be done in this country. 1t
is argued by the representa-.
tives of tho printers that under
existing laws an American author who de-
sires to copyright book in England is
required to have the type setting and ell tho
work necessary for its production done in that
country The committee expects to have a
strong support from the various typographi.
cal unions throughout the country, who, it is
said, will formally call upon their repre-
sentatives in congress to insist upon such an
amendment as will afford the printers Of the
United States the same protection in the
matter of international copyright as the
government of Great Britain claims for
English printers.
