st. Louis May 1o-The Western Union Telegraph
Company moved from their temporary quarters at NO.
els Pinest to their handsome new buildings at Nos
412 and Ala Pine-st. between IL and O'Clock this
morning Not hitch occurred in the change. The
new quarters, said Colonel II. c. C0wry the general
superintendent, the finest in the country The
equipment of the operating department is the most
complete that the Western Union had, including
as it does all the latest appliances and improvements
known in the business. The switchboard, which was
arranged under the direction of c. II. summers, is
probably the simplest although the most perfect in the
South Instead Of the old style cell batteries, the
electric currents generated by twenty-five dynamos
which are operated by seven engines in the basement
In the operating room are thirty quadrupex SETS ten
duplex sets and two Wheatstone SETS There are also
210 single wires The entire building is lighted by
electricity, and also has complete system OF pneu
matte tubes for the speedy and perfect distribution OF
business to and from all departments. On the thrd

DID NOT GET THE LAWS THEY WANTED.

Springfield, H.. May 1o-The Farmers In the
Illinois Legislature not yet prepared 10 join with
other members and declare that the General Assembly
must adjourn June II. The Farmers early in
sion, made explicit demands for certain legislation
ana are now insisting that their measures too low
upon the calendar 10 be reached by June L. No one
appears to exactly understand why these measures
are so much behndhsnd unless ii be the fault of the
Farmers themselves. Their measures are far behind in
BON houses, and Of the demands made by the farmers
a. the opening of the Assembly but few likely
70 assume the form Of legislation. II is possible that
they may gain their chief demand, reduction OF
the maximum rate of interest The Senate passed the
s1 FER Cent bill in the session, and sent IT TO the
mouse but as II was prepared by banker Senator,
the Farmers grew suspicious and shelved the measure
ior several months. IL is hardly probable. however
