MISS GILNER DEAD IN WASHINGTON.
A DAUGHTER OF PRESIDENT TYLER's FIRST SEC
RETARY OF THE TREASURY-HIS
ACCIDENTAL DEATH.

Washington, Aug. q (SpecaD.-Miss Gllmer n
daughter of President Tyers first Secretary of the
Navy died at the Louise Home, in this city, yes
terday. She well known and respected IN
Washington, where her charitable work had en-
deared her TO many people. Her death recalls d
strange accident, by which her father Thomas
Walker Gilmer was killed and from when Iresl-
dent Tyler only escaped by chance. The President
and his Cabinet had gone aboard new battle-shlp.
the Princeton TO witness The testing Cl Dis gun,
February 2s, 1874 There was much feasting ana
speechmaking and the cannon was roundly cheered
after a successful trial of its strength Nnhe
President Tyler was at dinner it was proposed that
the gun be fired again, and Il message was sent 70
the President asking him to come on deck. Some
guests kept him, however, and 1t was hndlly de-
cided to fire the gun without his being present. Mr.
G!lmer was standing directly behind II when the
match was applied, and he was instantly killed by
the explosion which followed. Many others were
injured and the Presidents absence probably
saved his life. Mr. Gmer's home was In Char-
lottesvle before he entered President Iylers Cab
met and he was Governor of Virginia in l>4O-il, as
a hig serving in Congress from lSl up TO ten days
before his accidental death.

BELL TELEPHONE CONTROL.
A REPORT THAT 1T HAS PASSED INTO
WESTERN UNION HANDS.

Boston, Aug. 21.-"The Boston Commercial
Bulletin" will say tomorrow regarding the
Western Union ana Bell Telephone companies:
I'VE understand upon the best authority that
the Western Union Telegraph Company con-
trolls at the present moment the American Bell
Telephone Company. The Importance OF such
control will at appear to every one VINO
appreciates how the two have come In compe-
ttlon during recent years. The Western Union
dividends had become threatened through the
competition Of the Bell company and or the
Postal Telegraph Company. but 1t has long
been a fully arranged plan for the western
Union to secure control OF the telephone COM
pany The two together can probably make II
very warm for the Postal Telegraph Company.
or the final outcome may be a consolidation or
all three. .
~ Perpont Morgan has been the largest
purchaser Of Bell Telephone stock at auction
here but the manner OF purchase has peen
very cleverly concealed Western VI ION STOCK mas
ruled weak on the NewYork Stock EXcnanse
during the last few days, but this weakhess
is thought to be Tart Of the programme or those
conducting this gigantic deal The compination
of these two concerns will mean an almost
impregnable monopoly of both the teiesrdVh
and telephone business in the same hands
