Lanston Co. Declares q 2 Per Cent. Dividend
Years Net Fronts S8OS las.

The annual report Of the Lanston Mono
type Machine Company. made public yes
terday, shows material improvement in the
trade and financial condition Of the COM
pany. In the year ended February rs
$50 casting machines and SIT keyboards
were sold, OF which l2i casting machines
and 1T keyboards were sold In England.
In the United States and Canada orders in
creased SIS casting machines and 10 key
boards during the year, but the English
business showed q decrease Of 20 casting
machines and 10 keyboards. The net sales
were 81 ,o5s 1877, M after making liberal
sos ,lls. A dividend Of 2 per csnt., the
first in the history Of the company, was
declared,
Concerning the controversy over the pur-
chase by the Government OF Lanston ma
chimes, President j. Maury Dove Gays In
his report:
A contract for seventy.two additional
casting machines and keyboards for the
United States Government Printing once
was entered into last June, bringing the
number installed In that department OF the
Government at the present time 10 100 All
the machine covered by this contract nave
been delivered TO the Government Printing
once and have been tested. approved, ac-
cepted and paid for. Prior TO the delivery.
a most outra geous and unwarranted attempt
was made by a business rival to prevent the
completion Of the sale and installation OF
these machines After a long investiga-
ton by a commission composed OF ofacers
Of the Government our contract was sus-
tanned. During the Investigation testi-
mony was sdduced showing that the records
Of our machines in the Government Printing
once were greatly superior to those OF the
machines OF this rival, and at thespresent time
our machines are doing work far superior
In quality. quantity and at less cost than any
other machine now employed In that once.
so that this unwarranted charge resulted
In demonstrating by convincing proof the
superiority Of our machine. The discreditsble
actions OF this disappointed competitor were
severely condemned publicly by the President.

Co. Is Said to BE Laying Wires.

Some one threw a lighted match into the
gutter at Eighth avenue and Thirty-eighth
street last night and started a Are that
burned all along the north side Of the street.
At the first manhole the fire dropped into
the sewer and burned along the under
ground route az far north as Forty-second
street. The police say that gasolene caused
the trouble. g.,
At Thirty-eighth street and Eighth. ave-
nue. the Atlantic Telephone, Company has a
small shanty built over the gutter. The
shanty IL used to store tools in during the
laying Of wires along the avenue, A con:
siderable quantity OF gasolene Ii stored
II the place. It is supposed hat some
Of the gasolene leaked into the street and
ran along the gutter into the sewer.
There were no explosions when the FIRE
went into the sewer, but its progress up the
avenue was marked by the smoke which
came out Of the manholes.
The fire ran back along the trail OF the
gasoline and attacked the shanty. Charles
Speck, the night %watohman, got his hands
and arms burned while carrying out the
cans Of gasoline. He was treated by an
ambulance surgeon and returned TO his
| Job. The iremen made short work OF the
blaze at the shanty, and II burned itself

UNION PACIFIC TO sEATTLEp

the Extension.
A despatch from Seattle yesterday quoted
z. q. Hartman as saying in that city that
the Union Pacific system intended to build
q line from Portland to Tacoma and Seattle
and to establish a new steamship line run
ming from Seattle to Alaska n the Orient.
Mr.. Hartman was quoted as follows;
we shall remain in San Francisco and
by building to this city will have connec-
tions with the two most important points
on the Pacific Coast. A new steamship
line to the Orient and Alaska will be con-
structed from here in May. and may not
be a subsidiary company.
Seattle has q future that can scarcely
be realized at this time, and the extension
Of the Union Pacific will be one OF the
factors that will assist in its uphuildins.
We have kept pace with the Improvement
OF San Francisco during all the years we
have been in that city, and the same policy
will be adopted in connection with Seattle.
The northern terminus OF the Union
Pachc system is at present at Portland.
which ia reached by the Southern Pacific and
the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Com
pany, both Union Pacific properties, While
In the East Mr.. Hartman gave no intima-
ton that he intended to build further north
With the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern. His remark last fall that an
era Of competitive railroad building wac
to succeed the period Of competitive rail-
road buying gave rise to speculations re-
g~arding elaboration Of his lines out pro-
duoed nothing more definite.
At the Union Padi6o Offices yesterday
it was said that nothing was known there
Of Mr.. HarrinAn's reported intention to
reach Seattle or Of the stealnship line he
Ia reported TO have projected. Banken
