NEW CABLES, ARRANGEMENTS FOR LAY Hy Cuble tS New York World, Lonnow, Dee. 4.—L cabled to you the fact some time ago that inquiries had been mada by euble from New York of the house of Siemens Brothers as to the terms on which they would undertake the construetion of two new ocean cables. Those inquirtes have been answered by mail, and Iam now en abled to inform you that Sfemens Brothers have undertaken to construet and fay with ule cable steamship Faraday, which belongs tothem, two new and complete Atlantic cables of tho finest quality, from Penzance, atthe western end of Cornwall, to White- head in Nova Scotla, touching at Sable Astind, ‘These'eables will be connected with tho land system of the American Unlon ‘Tele graph Company, and they will be entirely eoutrolled by Amerlenn eltizens. The prico to be paid for the two cables laid down and completed will be rather under than over £1,500,000 sterling, and work will be begun on them fumedlately, (Tho sun for which the new cables enn be constructed shows how vast hve been the improvements recently made In the whole businessof telegraph and exble construction, ‘The capital stock of the Anglo-American Company amounts to £7,000,000, dr $35,000,- 000; that of the French Company to £1,020,- 000, or $15,000,000; and that of the Direct Cable Company, we believe, to £2,000,000, or $10,000,000. As these three compantes aro ran practically as one, and under one head, it follows that the new Aimerlean Cable Com- pany will enter the-field of competition agalnst its elder rivals with greatly tin- proved: cnbles and with a capital represent- ing at the most not more than one-sixth that of the combined compantes.] ENGLISH GRAIN TRADE. w Lonpox, Dee. 6—Mark Lane Expres The weather has been favorable for wheat sowing.
