He undertook te break away from tbe Qarrett polley, and Just be for e Kebert Qarrett reaobed home, wtiere be was called by his brother's death, Mr. Spencer ceuted the Baltimore &Oble Telegraph company te be geld te tbe Western Union.

In tbe first place tbe Htredes cannot b cleared with either Huegatlans or Italians and than It can net.be Jaitly said that they have no homes or family tie, and we doubt whether these statements ate true cf any cf tte people named. The troth la bad enough wltneut exaggeration.

Clearly there Is plenty et work for the committee. German capitalists hava formed a syndicate for the control of the electric llgbllna of American cities. ' Tbe gentle men who are back el the seheme are Siemens AUeIsklr, of Berlin and Londen, who laid the first Allantle cable, and number of Berlin backers, all through the sgenny of Mr. Henry Vlllard.
