WESTERN UNION MENACED.
4 Bill Passed BY the senate Canoeing Exc
elusive Privileges.


WASHINGTON. July c0.-The Senate has
passed a very important bill with respect
to the use Of telegraph lines constructed
along the lines Of railroads which have re-
ceived bonds or land subsidies from the
General Government. The bill, IL short,
provides that existing contracts which
have been entered into between certain IT
these roads and the Western Union Com
pauv. under which the Western Union is
given the exclusive control of all telegraph
business on the lines of these respective
roads. shall be at once Cancelled and that
these subsidized roads shall forthwith
maintain and operate the telegraph lines
which they own. on their own account. and
shall make rates which are Just. e1uloable
and uniform to all competing companies
and shall make no discrimination between
competing telegraph companies which de-
sire Co use telegraph lines on these roads
as a means of connection between the At
lantic and Pacific coasts. This bill is the
outgrowth of an agitation which COM
menced in Kansas. Nebraska and Iowa.
II originated primarily in the effort Of the
Baltimore & Ohio Company when it existed,
TO secure a connection TO Colorado and the
West. The subsidized railroads in ques-
ton had entered into contracts with the
Western Union Company. which still ex-
