TOOK CHARGE OF THE OFFICE Another Telegraph Company Gl
 Trouble.

Trouble.
 BALTIMORE, Dec. 17.-At 5:3O p. m. Fran els P. Stevens, one of the receivers of the Bankers and Merchants Telegraph company, accompanied by lineman, entered the United Line company's main office and noti- fled Night Manager O'Mailley that it was his intention to take charge of the office Stevens had the gas extinguished, put out all the operators and closed the office. Re- oeiver Stevens then ordered his lineman to climb the poles and cut all the wires out of the office, at the same time explaining to Mir O'Mailley that the sale which took place to-day was unsatisfactory to MT. Dunn, who was the principal claimant against the Bankers and Merchants. The lines lie in almost inextricabls confusion from the building, the offices are all in dark ness and deserted and the United Lines com pany is without means of communication on it's own wires south of Philapelphia. The severing of the wires was accomplished in the presence of Messrs. Robert Stewart as- sistant to General Superintendent Tinker, and William A. Dunn, an ex-superintcndent of the Bankers &l Merchants and who two weeks ago obtained judgment for $10,0OO against the company. Supt. Emerich of the United Lines left for New York at p. m. | under the impression that everything was se- cura.

THE sHoRTsIGHTEDNEss of Legislatures
is sometimes as beneficial TO evil-doers
as corruption en- the part of the law
makers. In Wisconsin they are suffer
ing from a striking illustration OF
this fact. High license was demanded
by the people and the Legislature pass
ed the necessary law, but with a
clause permitting local brewers to re-
tail their own beer without license.
The result has been that within six
months the brewers of Milwaukee have
bought corner lots in the heart of the
city to the value of million dollars,
and are opening saloons for the sale of
their malt beverage. The temperance
people tried to have the Supreme Court
"sir down" on the law but the highest
tribunal in the State declared the law
constitutional and now the city will
suffer from the evils of intemperauee
without the business paying any of the
expense of carrying on the municipal
government.

THE CHICAGO Herald suggests that
the families of firemen who lose their
lives, or receive disabling injuries in
the performance of their duties, re-
ceive pensions from fund created for
that purpose. The proposition is an
excellent one. The fireman is quite as
much hero as the man who risks his
life on the field of battle, and the risks
run by the fireman are not less than
those of the soldier in war time. while
the service rendered his. country. by the
firemen is not less than that of the
warrior. There are no finer exhibit
tons of bravery than those seen at a
fire, when gallant men. daring almost
