Western Union Company. for taking posses-
sion, managing and operating by the latter
| company. as agent for Receiver Harlsnd, Of
all telegraph lines, instruments, &C., of the
American Rapid Telegraph Company of this
city. Connection. and other States in which
the company has been doing business. The
petition stated that the receiver of the Bank
ers and Merchants Telegraph Company were
IN possession of some of the wires Of the
Rapid Telegraph Company. but that such re-
ceivers had not been authorized to take pos
session OF the telegraph lines of that company
and thar any possession that they may have
taken was wholly without right Ii asserted
that the Bankers and Merchants Company
had no lease or agreement which entitled it
or the receivers TO take possession of the
Rapid Company. The property of the Bank
ers and Merchants Company was advertised
for sale, Friday and the Western Union Com
pany, in its petition, alleged that it was the
purpose of that company to have the pur-
chaser take possession, not only of all the
property of that company. but also of the tel
egraph line and property of the American
Rapid Telegraph Company.
Frederick II. May, an officer and director
of the American Company, made a statement
which was attacked by the petition of the
Western Union Telegraph Company declaring
that the Bankers and Merchants Company had
no lease or agreement emitting it or the re-
ceiver TO the use or possession of the prop
erty of the American Company. TWAS upon
these papers, that the order directing the
transfer OF wires to the Western Union Com
pany was made. The business of the Bank
ers and Merchants Company, has been Sc
riously crippled by the cuttingo of the Rapid
Compsny's wires. At least two-thirds of the
wires of that company are now in the hands
of the Western Union.
The general manager of the Bankers and
Merchants Company said today. that until
the matter was settled by the court, it was
impossible to determine who owned the wires
of the two compauies. Western Union Off
clals are reticent as to the course which will
he pursued by the company. They say the
decision was made 10y order of Judge Dono-
hue. and that they simply observed the in-
structons they had received.
