C. ALBRIGHT MADT STBBBT. THE WESTERN UNION MACKAY'S STROKE OF STRATEGY. How He Won the Cable Rate War Witt tke Rig Monopoly By Giving Ills a No Consolidation. PiTT.stt.DR<t, August "I don't believe the Mackay-Bennett Cable Company will go Into any or consolidation, for it has always resisted all overtures in that direction," said John Campbell, manager of the United Lines Telegraph yesterday.

"The guarantee given by the Mackay-bennett Oompaiyy against ana advance in rates only applies to their New York and London business," continued Mr. Campbell, "and it came about in this way. When the Mackey. Bennett cable was started its rate was made 40 cents a word, while the Western Union rate was -60 cents. The Western Union Company served fifteen days notice -on the Mackay-Bennett Company that unless itcume up to the 150 cent rale Uie Western Union would reduce its rate -cents.

The Mackay-Bennett Company made use of those (if teen days to canvass their subscribers in New York mid London, who do three-fourths of Die cable business, pointing out to them that 40 cents was a moderate rate and that it could be maintained by keeping two strong competing companies in the field while it' they accepted tlie low losing rales, which would be caused by a fight, oneconipuuy would be driven out and the other having killed competition would charge any rates tuey pleased i both to make up its losses in Hie rate Avar and to prolit by its monopoly. The Mackay-Bennett Company promised customers that, if they would sustain it in its light with the Western Union, it would charge them 23e a word and that if it advanced rates above 40c a word it would refund the difference between 12c and 25c on nil business done in the interim. With this guarantee the customers stuck to the Mackay-JIennett and enabled to whip the Western Union, so that it fixed the rate at 40c. Mr. Macksiy claims that he can make money at that rate but not at a lower figure, while a higher rate would be exhorbitant.

What the public have gained by competition injthe cable business is shown by the fact that the first ocean c.tble charge $100 for ten words before any opposition line was laid. Pittsburg does very little cable business, as it is not a large importing or exporting center." AUSTIN, August The' most sanguine Prohibitionists now admit that they have been defeated by any. where from 30,000 to 50,000 votes. Another fact is admitted on all sides. It IB the Democratic party of Texas, with its 150,000 majority, is fearf ullysplit up.

Phohibition Democrats to-night swear that they will carry the war Into the State Democratic Convention next year. They will demand a prohibition plank in the platform. If they are strong enough they will put it there. If they do not get it they will bolt and set up for themselves, If the anti.Prohibi- tiou Democrats are clowned in the convention a bolt is certain. In either event it looks if the 60,000 Republican -votes in Texas a chance next year of coming tab in the State throu in Dwnoewltemviston over this prohibition auction.

One ihtrtg Is see a Democratic majority of llp.000 in Texas were yesterday at the polls endeavoring to exercise popular suffrage. And these, women weie not the short-haired crusaders, but Galveston's fair ladies, who i transformed the polling places into picnic grounds by establishing around them refreshment booths, where tern- pelfcnce drinks and viands were served. If such a revolution in the exercise of suffrage in Texas had any influence it in a direction opposite to that which was intended. August There is some excitement at Horton- vllle, a village 25 miles from Indianapolis, over the discovery of a pot of gold which was buried under the residence of Solomon Hiutt, who is now dead, and who, it has ill ways been understood, settled on the farm in early day for the purpose of finding that very pot. He was one of the very earliest settlers, and he was told by an old Indian chief that when the Indians were living in this part of the new purchase, 25 miles due north from Indianapolis, at the bead of the Big Dismal, they had left "heap big money'' buried under astone, which had a tomahawk and a turkey's foot cut in it.

Hiatt thinking he might find it, entered the land. lie found tin: stone described by the Indian chief eigbt or ten years ago, and in a few weeks the pot was found and reburied under his own dwelling. Hiatt lived to be nearly 100 years old, and a few (lays before his death he told his children that he knew of something that would nniketliem all rich, but that lie would not tell them. The pot of money found under his house is suppos- ed to be the thing referred to by him. It contained several thousand dollars.

I WASHINGTON, August has been discovered in the examination of the accounts of the late Director Bacon Financial Clerk of the Patent OlHce, that upwards of 20 patent attorneys owe him $5,000. This money he had advanced them out of the public funds in his possession, Secretary Lamar has notifiod these attorneys that he will regard it. as sufficient cause for disbarment unless they at once make good the amounts they owe this fund.

Incidents of the Owning at Dentils Tlie Advance Details Get Too Fresh and Are Arrested. IftldllfliiW revo, wopte of Texas as it is repugnant to best sentiment. Women, whose place has always ton at toe fireside, Philip Young, Steward ol the Blair county alms house, was in town this morning looking up his friends and making new acquaintances, while looking after business matters. A certain young legal gentleman who resides within a hundred miles of Washington avenue found out this morning thai it don't, do to fool around giving directions to the hired girl when she is handling the garden hose. She is just as likely to turn the in his direction as any other.

THE BALL FIELD. The'Mets have ordered D. J. IJyau, the pitcher engaged last winter, to report for duty. He was laid off with a sore arm and without pay, and has been playing first for Rutland, Vt.

Jimmy Manning was yesterday released to Kansas City. His offer from the Kansas City people is very flattering. lie is to be manager and captain of tire club, and receives therefore a salary which would be considered very handsome in the National League. GAMES YESTERDAY. At R.

The Second Brigade is all here. The Ninth Infantry is just arriving. All the other commands are in camp with the exception of Batteries A and C. Some of the Third Brigade details that camo hem have behaved outrageously. Battery B.

has set an exuinpii' this' year, which, by order of Major Hartranft, will be the order hereafter at encampments; that is, there will be- uo more advance details. The com-' nuuuls, as did this year, will go to camp as a unit and put up their own canvas, and in that way learn how to go into camp. There been no accidents reported so far, but there have been two deaths in the The one of a Pittsburg boy and a private of the First Biigadov Philadelphia, died from sunstroke. Within every recollection these'(ire the first deaths in since Private Dawkin, of Company II, Eighteenth Infantry, was drowned at Lake in 1883. This is a t'einpt-nince camp, iColeman, the owner of the Park and' the railroad, is a temperance man.

will not allow any kind of liquor to be brought to camp over his road, and will not permit it to be sold nor brought into the grounds. While the troops are not all here tent is up and the last tent pole been driven into the ground. Th-s- work has been done by details sent ahead by general Hartranft. He declared to-day that hereafter no details would be sent while iseoimnamlerof the division to prepare any eiuup in advance. At future encampments- the men Avill put up their own canvas houses when they arrive.

That wont- so pleasant, but the Uiwrd hits yetu-V details to thank for it. Necessarily. the discipline is a little loose in advance parties, and this year exceptional advantage has been taken of it. Some of men have drunfc too much Lebanon beer and have conducted themselves disgracefully in the' little city nine miles away from where- they should have been at work putting- up tents. One of the men is in jail for insulting women, and will be dishonorably dismissed from the Guard as soon as he is released by the civil authorities.

Thanks to Major Hearn's foresight everybody in camp can have all the milk, eggs and butter they want, (fe has established an old Lebanon county farmer, Aaron Brubaker, at a short distance from the Third Brigade in place where 400 quarts of milk will be put in cans in cold running water every morning. Camp Hancock has advantage of natural situation. LOUISVILLE, August returns from 78 counties give it Republican gain of 27,108, an average of 348 in each county. If this average of Republican vote is maintained ia the remaining 41 counties to hear Buckner's (Dem.) majority will be 3,020. With 57 counties heard from last night the average Republican gain was 337, Hence an increased Republican gain is apparent in returns from the mountain counties last night.

The Democrats have elected 62 members of the legislature, the Republicans 18, the Union Labor 2, Prohibition 5, not yet reported 17. This is a Republican gain Craig, of the Supremo yf no truth in the report that he said the Court had decided to refuse the application of the anarchists for a new trial..
