Stnall white ‘and yellowish glotmlar pleces were observed by “the naked’ eye on the filter, On a microscopte examlnatton. they proved to be of acrystallold substance. ‘They were washed with mire water, dried, treated with chi: roform, and M- ered. A larze qlantity of chrystalllzed mass was, then observed through & mleroscrope of seventy five diameters, which mass had cert ta pecultar characterisites, reactions from which he concluded they might prove to Qe santonin.

Dr. Norvin Green, president of the Western Union Telegraph company, addressed the Senate committee on post offices and post roads thts morn- ing in opposition to the proposed governmental control of the telegraph. He sald the government Stems of Europe Nad been established, with the ‘XcepUon of that of England, a8 a protection for the governments, as a means of learning What was golng on, and of defeating conspirators. Under this government Lo necessity existed for Such a. course. Pnless there Was something defective In the ser: ‘Vice rendered there seemed fo be no reason why the Rorernment should take hold of the telegraph. He Tuatntained that we had telegraphic faclitties in larger proportion to population, a. better service and a cheaper service than in any country of Europe, and he was prepared to substantiate that x in any’ careful investigation. Dr. Green gave laany illustrations 6f the reductions” In rates which had followed the varlous consolidations of rival telegraph companies. A new tari! was tn process of preparation, o go into effect on the first of March, giving a maximum rate of one dollar, for whieh stiun a message could be sent 4900 miles, from Halifax to Washington erritory.

Ttcontalned, he sald, aclause that no cheaper rates should be made with any other assoctatlon without giving the Assoctated Press the advantage of the Tedite Uon. Some papers hud complatned because th Western Union could not furnish tein news at the Same rates thelr neighbors were receiving it froin the Associated Press” It was manifest that the pa- pers could get cheaper work done by association and {hat the Western Union company could not tranis- Init press dispatches to a single paper af as low a Fate as {t could carry the dispatches of an associa- tion. Dispatches from Washington to New Ori for exainple, were dropped at sixteen diffe points along the line. A ‘contract had re- cently Deen Inade with another press association, the name of which he could not recall. He would fend. the committee copies of both contracts. Iu conclusion he asked that the Western Union be heard before the committes through an attorney, and that the committee fx aday when it would hear Mr. Evarts. Mr. Gardner G. Hubbard, who waspr-sent, stated to the committee that he desired 19 be hear, tnd would attempt to controvert some ui the paints made by Dr. Green. He would undertake t¢ show t there was something defective in the Western vice; that thelr rates were excesstve—in words, If Uney had a rate not exceeding sixty cen's for thé whole country they would make more mouey and give a better service than at their pres ent rites; aud that One company could not s the country when tt was allowed to capitalize as Tapitty as It pleases, without reference to the Value of Wuelr property.
