THE CONTRACT STANDS.
Gold Syndicate Has Not Compiet-
ed It's Obligations.

NEW YORK, June 29.-Bradstreet'
publication prints today in a con-
spicuous place the following:
Inasmuch as many well-informed
newspapers appear to continue in
doubt as to whether the bond syn
dicate has completed it's work or
not, whether it is about to dissolve
and leave the treasury gold reserve,
now well above the 100000 900 mark,
to the tender mercies of the market
for foreign exchange, it may be well
to state thus prominently that the
syndicate has not completed it's un-
dertaking. 1t expects to continue
to lend all proper support to the
treasury in maintaining 100000 900
of gold reserve until October, 1895,
in the same way and manner that it
has thus far. Therefore, Lombard
street and Wall street operators re-
manning in doubt as to the probale
future of the market for American
securities, because of their uncer-
tainty on the point referred to. they
may at once replace that doubt with
a sense of security, which this in
formation must tend to impart."
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1895-06-30

fact better than the firemen them
selves. Chief Jackson, of the st.
Paul fire department, states that the
wires are almost invisible after
dark Their presence prevents the
raising of ladders wherever a build
ing is beyond a couple of stories in
height. If the wires run across the
street, as is the case not infrequent-
ly- on Seventh, it is impossible to
manipulate late the ladders either
near or away from building. The
firemen are forced to cut the wires.
This is, necessarily, a slow process,
and causes the department to lose
much valuable time. Then, if a wire
bearing a heavy electric current is
cut and falls to the ground, it at
once forms a new circuit, and en-
dangers the life of any one coming
in contact with it. AS it falls, it is
liable to cross another wire, and the
latter wire at once takes on the
same dangerous character The
only way to get rid of an intruding
wire is to cut it at two different
points where it is close to a pole,
thus removing an entire section. This
of course is a double labor.
DANGER ALL THE TIME.
Kenneth Mcintosh, chief lineman of
the Western Union, was very emphatic
in asserting the dangerous character
of an overhead electric light wire. It
is not necessary that a person should
simply avoid such wires in order to es-
cape a violent shock. Not unfrequently
the electric light wires are in some way
thrown upon, "become crossed" as the
expression goes, with the harmless
telegraph or telephone wires. Then
whoever touches the latter is in as
much danger as if handling the former.

DIsCOURAGING SPECTACLE PRE-
SENTED BY THE OVERHEAD
WIRES ON STREETS.
SEVENTH STREET SPOILED,
so FAR AS APPEARANCES CO,
BY NUMEROUS UNSIGHTLY
INCUaTBRANCEs.
DANGER IN EXPOSED WIRES.
Synopsis of the Ordinances
Passed to Regulate the
Nuisance.

Seventh street is the principal re-
tail street of st. Paul. 1t is the am
bition of the enterprising merchants
whose business is there located to
make this one of the most attractive
thoroughfares in the city. They ac-
cordingly professed an entire willing
ness to tax themselves heavily that
an asphalt pavement might be laid
before their doors. They resisted the
strongest arguments of the street
railway company when the latter
endeavored to persuade them that
granite blocks between the street
car tracks would be almost as at
tractive as an entire surface of
asphalt
But it is of little avail to erect
handsome buildings, put down sub
stantial tile or granite sidewalks,
and lay the cleanest, smoothest and
most attractive of modern pave
ments, when the view of street in
either direction is obscured by a
mass Of wires, big and little, punched
together in intricate masses or in
struggling trios and couples. Nor
are the wires themselves the most
Objectionable feature from the stand
point of appearance. The poles that
support the wires are of SO hopeless
) ly unpicturesque a mien that 'un-
slightly" has become lnseparably
connected with telegraph pole"
Certainly few things can be mag
ined more absolutely unattractive
than tall masts of roughly smoothed
wood, stained a dirty gray by dust
and rain and sun, or painted to
q more painful hue of black or red.
The masts bear aloft from two to a
dozen awkward cross bars. Below
the posts are given an extra coat Of
paint for a dozen feet above the
ground and are wrapped around with
manifold coils of wire or strips of
hoop iron. They are either scratched
and torn by the sharp iron climbing
spurs of the linemen, or they are
ornamented with a double row of
projecting hooks which serve the
linemen for a ladder.
UNDERGROUND CONDUITS.
Aesthetically the telegraph pole is
hopeless, and it does not even pos
sess the inertia redeeming one at
this age and in this land-of being
a utilitarian necessity or success.
On the contrary, underground con-

SULLIVAN AND C0RBETT
TO STAR TOGETHER If PRESENT
ARRANGEMENTS DO NOT
FALL THROUGH.
GENEROUS OFFER TO JOHN L
Ten Thousand a Year as the Price
of His Travelling With His
Conqueror-

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, June 29.-John L. Sulli-
van, ex-champion pugilist of Amer
lea, and James John Corbett, pres
ent champion and Sullivan's con-
querer, will probably be in the same
theatrical company next season.
William A. Brady, manager of many
theatrical companies and partner of
Corbett, reached town this morning,
and in an interview tonight dis
closed that, while no contract had
been made with the Big Fellow"
as yet, a verbal agreement existed
that was binding on both sides and
a written contract would be drawn
up as soon as he returned East and
first disinclined to say anything
about the matter, but when pressed
told the story of how the deal came
up. He was at Sullivan's benefit in
New York Thursday night, and after
the latter's wind-up set-to with the
during the course of which Brady
asked Sullivan how he would like to
play himself under the same man
agement as his conquerer. "Well,
I wouldn't mind that replied the
pugilist. How about the money part
of it, and what would you want me
to do?" 'I'll give you $4,000 year,
whatever you do, and will arrange
the details of it after while" re-
