THE NORTHERN -The New York Tribune reports that a syndicate of New York and Philadelphia capitalists on Saturday purchased a large block of the stocks of the Northern Pacific Railroad system from the Oregon and Transcontinental Company, which controls them. The sale includes 30.000 shares each of the Northern Pacific common and preferred stock, and 10.000 or 12,500 shares of Oregon Railway and Navigation stock.
The prices at which the stocks have been taken have not been made public, but those which are mentioned most frequently are 35 for Northern Pacific preferred and 15 for the common and 75 for Oregon Railway and The members of the syndicate, so far as their names have been learned, are Anthony J. Drexel, of Philadelphia, with whom are associated C. B. Wright, and one or two other friends there: Drexel, Morgan Cyrus W. Field, Jay Gould, Russell Sage, of New York, and some others prominently identified with the present management of the companies.
It is further said that the sale supplies the Oregon and Transcontinental Company with all the money which it needs to surmount the present ditticulties and go on with its business. By the sale ample provision for the payment of the company's liabilities for the next year was made, and the recent rumors of a receivership which have been circulated industriously since the retirement of Henry Villard from the management will be silenced by it. Horace White, of the Oregon and Transcontinental Company, confirmed the statements that the transaction had been concluded.

THE B. O. TELEGRAPH. EXPANSION OF ITS SERVICE.
BUYING AND BUILDING OF NEW LINES. The Acquisition of Western Union Talent and of the National Telegraph Company's Lines--An Interview with Mr. Robert Garrett on the Company's Plans. Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.1 NEW YORK, Jan. good deal of attention has recently been attracted to the Baltimore and Ohio Teiegraph Company by the going into its service of a number of prominent officials of the Western Union Telegraph.
These accessions have generally been regarded as significant of important movements in the development and expansion of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph service. Today the announcement was made that the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph had bought the lines of the National Telegraph Company, which extend along the route of the West Shore and New York, Chicago and St. Louts Railroads. Mr. Robert Garrett, vice-president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, is in the city, stopping at the Brevoort House.
In answer to inquiries he said that plans were in process of execution that would bring the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph into competition with the Western Union at all important points. policy," be said, "is to go after commercial business, and our lines are being extended as rapidly as possible so as to reach all large towns and cities. Our system 1s already extensive, but until recently it has been confined to the lines of the railroad routes of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and its connections. What we are now doing will make a complete and perfectly equipped general system of telegraph, covering the entire area of commercial business, North and South, as well as East and West." "What is the present extent of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph system?" was asked. have already." said Mr.
Garrett, very complete system, resching all points along the lines of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, extending from New York city to Baltimore, Washington. Cincinnati, St. Louts, Louisville Chicago and intermediate points. We have at present eleven wires between New York and Chicago, all new and of the best material. This independent system has been operated by the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph for over two years.
We are satisfied that 8 large net revenue can be derived from extending the system, 80 aS to make it a general one, reaching all sections which can furnish commercial business. We shall have lines to Boston and other points in New England, and lines to Saratoga, Albany. Rochester. Syracuse and other points in New York State. We shall have lines through the oil regions, and will extend our Northwestern system 80 as to reach Milwaukee, St.
Paul. Minneapolis, and other points in the Northwest as far west as Bismarck. and as far northwest as Winniper. We shall go South down the Mississippi valley to New Orleans and Galveston." "Has any actual work been done on these extensions?" point has been well covered. Contracts have been closed for a large quantity of wire and a great number of poles.
crossarms and other telegraphic material for immediate delivery. The necessary rights of way have been secured. One large extension of our telegraph system we have already secured by the purchase of the telegraph line along the West Shore and Nickel Plate Roads between New York city and Chicago. We bought it outright, and it now belongs to the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph. This line 15 believed to be the best there is between the East and West.
It is entirely new. constructed of the best material, and it has very favorable contract reiations with the West Shore and New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroads in regard to the transportation of material and use of stations. This gives us an immediate connection with the Canada telegraphs. which we reach at Detroit and Buffalo.
There are at present four wires on this line. Orders have been given to string twelve more at once. This, with our present line. will make our service between New York and Chicago and intermediate cities almost as extensive as the Western Union in number of wires and better in actual efficiency. Poles are being cut and material gotten ready for the work of building the line from New York to Boston, which will be begun as soon as the frost comes out of the ground 80 that the poles can be set.
The contract for the construction of the Northwestern extension was awarded last Saturday. We have secured the best apparatus. Many of the Western Union patents on multiplex systems have run, out, and they are open to our use. We have engaged a sufficient number of experienced, energetic telegraph managers to push the work with vigor in every part of the territory covered by our plans. Our recent accessions of Western Union officials are not the only ones that are coming to us.
Mr. Wm. G. Jones, late Western Union manager at Philadeiphia, takes charge of our office there. Mr.
J. P. Bach leaves the Western Union to take Charge of building new tines for us. Mr. John E.
Zeubling, who was the superintendent of the Pennsylvania and New Jersey district of the Western Union service, takes charge of our Western division, with headquarters at Chicago. have already established in several cities local district telegraph companies for general messenger service, as well as the delivery of dispatches, and we will establish like companies in New York city, Chicazo and other points. These district telegraphs will have new and improved call boxes, with return signal attachment, so that a person using the box will know that the call has been received and is being attended to. "I may as well a ld." said Mr. Garrett, "that when the telephone monopoly is broken.
as the course of proceedings in the courts indicates it will be, an opposition telephone business will be established with which the Baltimore and Ohio wiil have largely to do." "How long has the Baltimore and Ohio telegraph been estabiished?" was asked. Baltimore and Ohio telegraph as a distinet corporate organization dates from January 1. 1882. The telegraph line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad of course antedates that period by many years. During the civil war the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, in connection with the American Telegraph Company.
of which the late Gen. Edwards S. Sanford was president, made additions to its telegraph lines so as to establish facilities for commercial business. These lines, after the consolidation of the American Telegraph with the Western Union, were operated in connectionwith the latter under cooperative contracts merely, as it was not the policy of the Baltimore and Ohio Company to surrender independence of its telegraph system. On the contrary.
a favorable disposition WAS shown to telegraph enterprises in opposition to the Western Union monopoly. About the 1st of January, 1877, the Baltimore and Ohio broke loose from the Western Union, and associated its telegraph system with the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company. When, in the latter part of 1877. the Western Union absorbed that company, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad sought other telegraph connections for its own system, which were secured when the American Union was started, in May, 1879, by Mr. D.
H. Bates, now the general manager of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph. A year later, when Gen. Eckert, now the general manager of Western Union, became president of the American Union, a new agreement was entered into for the operation and development of the Baltimore and Ohio telegraph system in connection with the American Union Telegraph Company. When the consolidation of the latter company with the Western Union took place.
in 1881, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad then determined to establish its telegraph system on a thoroughly independent basis, and the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Company was organized. The result of its operations has been 80 gratifying that we determined to extend its lines to all important points east of the Rocky mountains, and that territory is covered by our present arrangements for construction, with the exception of the Southern Atlantic States." are the relations of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph." Baltimore and Ohio Railroad controls the Telegraph Company and advances the necessary capital. You know the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad has never practiced stockwatering, but after declaring a ten per cent. dividend credits its investments of earnings to a surplus fund. The surplus fund now amounts to $45,763,479 80, while the capital stock of the road amounts to only $14.783.700.
This enables the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to build its Philadelphia extension and expand its telegraph system at the same time without floating any stock or straining its "I have a great deal of respect for Mr. Gould's opinion," Mr. Garrett went on, "and when we were associated with him in the American Union enterprise he used to argue, when the stock of the Western Union amounted to $41,000,000, that that company WAS SO enormously overcapitalized that an opposition company could earn dividends at rates that would not pay the Western Union. Now that the stock of the Western Union has been swollen to $80,000,000, plus, I believe, its cable, Mutual Union and other guarantees, we think Mr. Gould's argument is stronger than ever, and that the Baltimore and Ohio telegraph, built for cash and with no water stock to carry.
will realize satisfactory profits for us, while giving the public the benefit of telegraphic competition. That competition will not be confined to land business alone. I am advised that the cable steamer Faraday will shortly start for this side to begin laying the new Atlantic cable the latter part of February, and by the first of August next the new cable will be ready for business. This new cable, laid at a cost of $5.500,000, will be in a position to push an active competition with the present cables, represented as they are by a capital stock aggregating $70,000,000." Ex-Judge Green, receiver of the West Shore Road, says that the price paid for the telegraph line was $800,000, which is at the rate of $80 a share. It is stated that the Jersey Contral Road will soon terminate its contract with the Western Union, and its lines will be operated by the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph.
The Commercial Advertiser "It was reported this afternoon that the National Telegraph Company, operating the recently constrncted lines over West Shore and NickelPlate Railroads, covering the entire distance from New York and Chicago via those routes, had been purchased by the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Company for the sum of $1,000,000.

WHICH TWENTY YEARS PREVIOUS TREATMENT BY PHYSICLANS HAS FAILED TO REMOVE. JANUARY 25, 1884. Messrs. A. S.
Abell Gentlemen: For upwards of twenty years I have been a great sufferer. My trouble arose from affection of the Spine, Sciatica, Giddiness, etc. I was also excessively weak, my speech had become indistinct, and for the last three years of that time my physicians assured me I might get a stroke of paralysis at any moment. My state of mind, thus one of constant apprehension of a fearful calamity. can be better imagined than described.
Medicine had failed to relieve, and in my despair I turned to the one last resource that seeined to hold out any hope, viz: the GalvanoMagnetic Treatment of E. A. Parsons Co. Well has this treatment performed all that was claimed for it. After about four months from commencing it.
my spinal trouble is removed, my sciatica pains, from which I suffered martyrdom, are gone. I have no swimming in the head or indistinctness of speech; have become remarkably strong and healthy, and during have increased in weight twenty pounds in that period. The great improvement my my husband condition is realized and appreciated by and friends, and I cannot too highly recommend that which seems to have given me a new lease of life. Yours, 147 Exeter street. The name of lady relieved, at above address, will be given to interested inquirers at Dr.

Hall, of Elkten, and four children, were again taken suddenly ill today, and every indication points to their having been polsoned. On Tuesday last, it will be remembered, the same members of the family were taken sick suddenly, and there were evidences that the cause of the illness was some irritant poison. They were attended then by Dr. Ellis, who is a very prominent physician. and -under whose treatment they speedily recovered.
The family is in poor circ*mstances, and the fact that the children were taken sick just after eating, and the mother, who ate nothing, was taken sick at the same time the children were, led to the belief that if they were poisoned it was not the result of accident. It is now believed they were poisoned on that occasion, as well as today, and that it was not a suicidal attempt in either case. Their physician was hurriedly sent for today, when the second attack showed itself.and proper emetics were given. The boy, who was so ill after the first attack, is getting better, but the mother is very ill, and the other children are in no better condition. Suspicion pointed to an older daughter, who does not reside with her parents, and who had turned out badly and once served a term in the House of Correction.
The mother openly accused her of posioning the family, and on complaint of the father, William Hall, she has been arrested and lodged in jail. The attending physician, although reticent about the matter, said tonight that the illness in both cases was from poison, undoubtedly, but that less poison was given the second time than on the first occasion. The family was also advised not to allow the daughter to come near them again. The doctor examined several articles of food and some sugar in a sugar-bowl. Although he could find no traces of arsenic crystals, he strongly advised them to throw the sugar out and not attempt to use it.
The family were taken sick the first time after drinking of tea. The neighbors are all confident that an attempt has been made to kill the entire family, and even the father, had he been home. VIRGINIA LEGISLATURE. Ousting Mahone Officials-Mahone Requested to Resign. Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.1 RICHMOND.
Jan. State Senate today passed the bill making highly important changes in the appointment of school trustees. This bill provides for the election by the General Assembly this session, and every succeeding four years, of three citizens of each county in the State who are not officeholders. These boards are to have authority to appoint all school trustees. lu other words, the bill takes the management of the public schools out of the hands of Mahone's oificials and places them in the custody of these boards, composed of three citizens in each county.
The bill goes now to the House for its concurrence. The House of Delegates today concurred in the joint resolutions passed by the Senat requesting Gen. William Mahone to resign his seat in the United States Senate. The vote was 43 in favor of the resolution and 14 against. The proceedings incident to the vote were very short, no speeches being made by either side, much to the relief of the Mahoneites.
The resolutions will be enrolled at once and a copy transmitted to Mahone, as directed in the resolutions. They will probably reach the United States Senate by Wednesday. In the House of Delegates the effect of the democratic two-thirds majority was developed today by the passage of two bills over Governor's veto, viz: the bill amending the charter of the city of Portsmouth and bill giving full power to the register of the land office to appoint capitol police. These appointments have previously required the approval of the Governor. Both bills had already been passed by the Senate over the Governor's veto, and have therefore, become laws.
The bill to remove from the Governor's power the appointment of the boards of directors of the lunatic asylums in the State was passed. Mr. Robeson Contradicts Mr. KeiferSupreme Court Cases-Other Topics. Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.I WASHINGTON, Jan.
George M. Robeson, of New Jersey, today appeared before the House sub-committee on accounts and stated that Tyson, late stenographer to House committees, did not resign voluntarily at the close of last session, but was requested to do so by ex-Speaker Keifer. Mr. Robeson says Tyson came to him for advice, and he (Robeson) advised him not to resign, saying that Keifer would hardly dare dismiss a personal friend of his. Tyson tried all he knew how to keep his place.
but the ex-Speaker said he must go, and go he did. A member of the sub-committee states that a full report of the investigation will make spicy reading when given to the public. The square denial of the testimony of ex-Speaker Keifer by Mr. Robeson has created a great deal of talk today. It is understood that it means that these gentlemen are at outs.
FUNERALS OF CONGRESSMEN. Representative Covington, chairman of the House committee on accounte, calied a special meeting of his committee today to consider the question of expenses of burying deceased members of Congress. After a general discussion of the subject the sergeant-at-arms was informed that hereafter in passing upon the expenses incurred by congressional committees in attending funerals of deceased members no allowance would be made by the committee, for what is usually termed "luncheon" in the bills. The committee has decided to break up, if possible, the custom that has heretofore prevailed of making funeral excursions. in the language of one of its members.
"drunken orgies." Hereafter silk sashes worn by congressional pall-bearers will be paid for at reasonable rates. The practice has been to pay $8 for each sash. SUPREME COURT CASES. The United States Supreme Court today decided the case of the American File Companv. Wm.
F. Sales et Robert Garrett Sons, of Baltimore, in favor of the lastnamed parties. An abstract of the original bill shows that prior to 1862 Allan A. Chapman and others, under the name of the American File Company, were engaged in the manufacture of files at Baltimore, claiming to be owners of a patent for cutting files by machinery. In 1862 the complainant and other residents of Rhode Island purchased of the Baltimore company their property, consisting principally of the patent aforesaid.
and organized an American File Company in Rhode Island. Chapman and his Baltimore associates, as consideration for the conveyance of the property, received about one-half of the capital stock in the Rhode Island company. The latter company continued business for several rears with great loss. Chapman and the other Baltimore stockhoiders being directors and active managers of the company. Owing to the large indebtedness of the company the stockholders contributed.
in proportion to their stock, enouzh to pay the debts of the concern. and received in return the bonds of the company, secured by a mortgage upon the property. In September, 1872. Kirkland. Chase of which Chapman was a member, failed, and each member made assignment.
After such failure Chapman sent to Garrett Sons all the bonds of the company held by him, and they held the same as security for a loan of $50.000 male to the bankrupt firm. The assignees negotiated with certain of the Rhode Island stockholders for the transter of the bonds for 50 cents upon the dollar. Pending this negotiation, Garrett Sons effected a settlement with the assignees and became the purchasers of the bonds. The Supreme Court of Khode Island rendered judgment in their favor against the corporation for the sum of $132,611, upon which judement execution was issued, but returned wholly unsatisfied, no goods, chattels or real estate being found whereon to levy it. The United States Supreme Court decides that the judgment against the file company and all its stockholders was conclusive.
CLERKS FOR CONGRESSMEN. Representatives S. S. Cox. Mi is of Texas.
Nicholis of Georgia, and a number of otbers on the democratic side of the House, say they will fight any proposition brought forward to give each Representative who is not a chairman of committee a clerk, as the Senators have done. These gentlemen also say that when the legislative appropriation bill comes before the House they will oppose the extension of the contingent fund of the Senate to pay extra clerks that have been appointed at the other end of the Capitol. BILLS OF LOCAL INTEREST. The session of the House today lasted but few minutes, the announcement of the death of Representative Mackey, of South Carolina, being made as soon as the House was called to order. Four members of the Maryland delegation had bills ready, which they would have introduced had the opportunity been offered.

A DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
The Sherman Resolutions Speak or Not to Speak is the Question. WASHINGTON, Jan. democratic Senators held a caucus immediately after the adjournment of the Senate today to decide upon a policy to be adopted with reference Senator Sherman's resolution calling for investigation of alleged outrages at elections in Virginia and Mississippi, and also for the purpose of considering the selection of democratic members of the new Senate committees. After a full and general expression opinion. it was decided that party action should be governed by circ*mstances when the Sherman resolution should come up for consideration.
That resolution merely alleged that outrages had been committed and voters intimidated by criminal violence at elections in two of the Southern States. If republican Senators in their remarks upon the resolution should treat the alleged outrages AS ascertained and proved facts, should refer to specifle acts of violence and intimidation, and should attempt to charge the democratic party with responsibility for such acts, it would, in the opinion of the caucus, be proper and expedient for democratic Senators to accept the issue and enter actively into the debate, shaping their course in accordance with the drift of the discussion. This, it was conceded, would probably lead to a heated political controversy. If, however, the republican Senators should not directly force this issue if they should confine themselves to general allegations of local disorder and violence, and not assert that the democratic party fostered and encouraged the spirit which gave rise to such disturbances, it was decided to let the republicans have the debate mainly to themselves.
