SERIOUS VIEW OF CRISIS.
English Lawyers All Asked to Enlist
for Home Defense.

LONDON, December 23.-The exceeding
grave View taken in some quarters of the
present crisis Is evidenced by circular
signed by Attorney General Webster, So
licitor General Finlay and General Sir Eve.
lyn Wood, adjutant general to the forces.
TO the effect that the present position of
public affairs is so critical that as a greater
part of the regular forces will be required
abroad, 1t becomes imperative, for the pur-
pose Of home defense. that the volunteers
should be augmented, and urging that
every member of the legal profession, not
debarfed by age or paramount duty, enroll
himself as an active member of the inns

Nxw YORK. July 2l.--The i,e,.I
says: A deal IS underway invnlv,u.
the combination Of at least fonr prom.
inent railroads and perhaps two or tire,
more. making complete trunk lin,
from the Atlantic To the Pacific. The
scheme involves merger Of several
properties in which r. II. Hartman

are interested and with their friend.
exert controlling influence. Among
these properties are the Union Pacific
tho Illinois Central and the Chicago
and Alton. the Chicago Terminal Trans.
Ter company. the Oregon Short Line
the Oregon Railway and Navigation
company and the Baltimore and Ohio.
II Is asserted III some quarters that the
Great Northern will come in. but this
is considered doubtful although James
j. Hill Is closely associated with sev-
eral Of the gentlemen who are pron!n.
ent in the railroads mentioned. Thi.
combination will give compact sys'
traffic alliances. Thu Union Pacific is
the Keystone. Its close connection a!
present is the Chicago and Northwest
ern. and for IA long time II has been the
prevailing opinion in Wall street. that
the Vanderhil,s would attach both the
Northwestern and the Union Pacific t
the growing New York Central system
Supplied the vaadsrbllss.
The new alliance assumes unusUa
interest when il is borne in mind thai
the Vanderbilts are represented on the
board Of directors Of the Union Pacific
and were not aware until u few week
ago of wha; was going on.
The Northwestern directors have hur
riedly considered the advisability OF ex
tending their Fremont branch To Ogden
to a connection with the Central Pa
citic. which is controlled by the South
crn Pacific Cut of from the Umoi
Pacific. the Northwestern will find n
road to turn 10 for Pacific coast business
that does not parallel i, for considera
BILE distance.
Thus with the Northwestern extend
ing its Fremont. Elknorn ana Missdur
river railroad from Fort Casper 4
Ogden. in order TO fight the On'o'
Pacific and to protect itself against III
Oregon lines which have recently beef
acquired by the Union Pacific. there
likely to be lively time among tn

For Conduit Rights in
Streets.
The New Automatic Exchange
System To BE Used.

On Thursday the board Of aldermen are
to give a hearing on petitions for pole
rights for two electro light companies
Unless the plans are changed before that
time a petition will be presented TO the
board by the Dirigo Telephone and Tells
graph company. This petition Will ASK
that rights to build and maintain con-
duits through the streets of Portland be
granted. The company intends to begin
the construction of It's lines the moment
the right for them to construct oonduits
is granted In the meantime, SO it Is un-
derstood, this company Will string their
wires on the poles Of tie Portland Elec-
trict Light company with whom they
have made an arrangement for this pur-
pose, paying the new electric light COM
pany a nominal rental for the use OF
these poles. This will do away with the
necessity of asking the city to locate any
more poles of which Portland has more
than Its share. AS rapidly es possible nf.
ter this Is done the Dirigo Telephone
company will begin 10 hustle for business
In Portland. They will promise to In
stall telephones at SO low rate that al
most every one can afford to hnya one In
the house. or office. The new telephone
company has entered into contract with
a company which controls the automatic
telephone exchange patents which Is now
being used In Connections and other New
England states with great SUCCESS so 1t is
claimed. This automatic system does
away with the usual telephone exchange
entirely. There will bs no "hello CEN
trail to 1t. In each subscribers house Is
placed dial with which connection Ia
made with the telephone number desired
and absolutely secret connection given
between the two telephones. Within ten
days, SO the PRESS Is informed, one of
these automatic exchanges will be on ex .
hibition in this city
1t is understood that the new telephone
company is backed up by any amount OF
capital ard that many of Its principal
stockholders are residents OF this STAGE.
The Dirigo company IL already operating
lines successfully In Lewiston and Rock
lasd and will have others In the several
pit!es OF the state within q short tune.
Similar competing lines are to be In.
stalled In New Hampshire and Massa-
chusetts giving all the through eonnec-
tlons that are now afforded by the New
England Telephone company.
1t is understood that the proposition
which Is TO be made to the city on Thurs
day will offer for the exclusive use of the
mum ipality, free telephone ssrv!c'. 1t is
claimed that the city Is now paying at
ths rate Of $500 year for telephones to
the pre- sent telephone company.
