THE "WESTERN ASSOCIATED PRESS" A3fD THE TELEGRAPH COMPANY.
The Illiberal Spirit of the Proprietors of the Express anil Journal.
A N O I O S O N O O E N E ,f I I* i: The Gazette Publishes the Afternoon
Dispatches, and asks no Favors.
It is known to almost every one, that there is an association called the "Western Associated Press." This association is composed of persons owning printing offices and publishing papers, and is an exclusive monopoly. It has been able to effect a contract with the Telegraph Company, by which no one can get from that Company any item of general news sent by this Association albng the wires, except by their consent.
At a meeting of the Western Associated Press, some two years ago at St. Louis, Gen. Cruft as owner of the Terre Haute Express, and Edmunds & Jordon as owners and editors of the Terre Haute •f, Journal, by the payment of a fee of ten dollars, became members thereof. At this same meeting there was a resolution passed that there should be no new membership added to the Association, witesi by the consent of the "local press" where such person desiring to become a member, resided. This effectually placed all new
I enterprises in the newspaper line, at the mercy of the "Local Press." If it gave its consent for you to become a member and thereby be entitled to the dispatches of the Associated Press, by paying an initiation fee of ten dollars, you could become one, but if the local press object ed, you could get no dispatches.
It will be readily seen, that when the "local press" was in the hands of narrow constructed, illiberal, unenterprising men, it would never consent to have an additional paper started, and would always refuse to let any one have the dispatches. It at once became a monopoly unparalleled in its meanness by any asso ciation on the continent. In some localities, where the conductors of the press were distinguished for their parsimony, and great want of enterprise, they published papers disgraceful to the place, and injurious to its prosperity. But having the telegraphic dispatches at their control, they generally had it all their own way, and were able to break down all competition. In this city this monopoly has been exercised in all its odiousness, illiberality and meanness. Being under the control of Chus. Cruft and J. B. Edmunds, who could expect anything liberal from them
When we started the DAILY GAZETTE we were able to procure for its readers all the morning dispatches, without the consent of those gentlemen. This we did, and have been giving our readers the full morning dispatches ever since. But this great war breaking out in Europe, and the people of this city being desirous of having all the news of the day, both morning and evening, and being desirous they should we addressed the following note to Gen. Cruft and Messrs. Edmunds & Jordon
GAZETTE OFFICE, July 22, 1870.
Gentlemen As a general war seems about to commence in Europe, and the people of this city are now desirous of receiving all foreign news as fast as it comes over the telegraphic wires, we ask you to give 3rour consent that we may become a member of the Western Associated Press, so that we will be able to give afternoon dispatches to the people.
We ask this more particularly now, as it is but due to the people of this city, that they have the advantages enjoyed in other cities, of reading both morning and afternoon dispatches.
Please also state the terms upon which yon will give your consent, and the amount of money that will be required to pay you now.
Hoping your willingness to give to the public this desired additional news, will prompt you to grant the above request, we remain, Yours, respectfully,
HUDSON, BROWN & Co.
P. S. Will you be kind enough to answer this at the earliest moment possible? H., B. fe Co.
This morning we received the following reply TERRE HATTTE, July 22,1870. Messrs. 7ludson, Broion & Co., Proprietors
Gazette .*"
GENTS—Yourfavor of the 22d inst. is received. In reply thereto permit us to say that we cannot consent to the admission of the "GAZETTE" to membership in the "Western Associated Press" at this time. "7'V Yours very respectfully,
EDMUNDS FT JORDON, Proprietors Journal Office. CHARLES CRUFT,
Proprietor Express Office-
Of course we expected but little less from such liberal and enterprising citizens. They could not give the evening dispatches themselves to the people, and like the dog in the manger, they would not let any one else do it.. They have not enough enterprise to publish an after noon paper themselves so that the great desire of the people for afternoon dispatches would be gratified, nor would they let any one else have those dispatches who is publishing an afternoon paper. The accommodating spirit evinced, was entirely characteristic of the source, and really just what we ought to have expected.
But the Terre Haute GAZETTE is not to be crippled in the least in its intention and determination to give to this people alive paper, and one, too, containing all the news in both the morning and afternoon dispatches from every quarter, by the illiberal, unaccommodating, and unenterprising spirit of the Journal and Express. Independent of these two papers and their proprietors, and the "Western Associated Press" and its dispatches, we are able this day to lay before the readers of the GAZETTE, all the important items of news up to the time of our going to press. We do this at great expense, it is true, but our readers are entitled to it, the patronage we are receiving from our citizens justify it, and we will try and a 1
We present those facts to show the people of Terre Haute how small narrowminded men will act when they think they have the power, and how all their little plans fail, and odious monopolies
pale before well-directed energy, and persistent determination. This oppressive monopoly of the "Western Associated Press" has had its day. It was always unworthy the Press of the country, and having fallen into the hands of little men has become odious to every fair-minded man who understands it. The Telegraph Company has acted in a mercenary manner that will cripple it in the future for lending its lines, and contracting with the "Associated Press" in building up an interest in this country so pernicious to the well-being and progress of this people.
We are most happy to state that the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph will open an office in this city in a short time, and as its wires reach almost everywhere, it will not join in collusion with any body of mercenary speculators, to prevent the people from getting the news as soon as it occurs, from any quarter. Nor will it combine with a class of unenterprising men, who, in order to put a few dollars in their pockets, would retard the prosperity of the city in which they live, and keep important knowledge from their fellow-citizens
How will the War Affect Us? Nothing will in the end be gained by refusirg to recognize the almost certain effects of European war upon the public credit, the finances and the business interests of this country. It is well to look upon the bright side of things as frequently and as long as possible but we shall probably find ourselves in a better condition after six months' hostilities, if we acknowledge plainly the inconveniences and embarrassments we shall meanwhile encounter.
The first popular impression was that the United States might gain much, and could lose little, from the conflict between France and Prussia. "We shall not suffer a bit,'' was the hasty judgmen of a wel 1known Wall street philosopher when the imminence of war ceased to be doubtful and we believe that the opinion he expressed is still generally entertained. "We shall get high prices for all the breadstuff* we export there will be a large demand for American arms and when Congress discards the blundering selfishness of our navigation laws, we may hope to acquire the largest share of the world's carrying trade" Such is the gist of the argument which a great many people have accepted as conclusive. They have not paused to reflect that the best of these possibilities—that referring to the carrying trade—presupposes liberal legislation, and that unless public opinion speedily compels the Congressional majority to throw the monopolists and their ideas overboard, the srolden opportunity will pass unimproved. Nor have they attached sufficient importance to the fact that the demand for our breadstuff^, at the prices anticipated, is in part conditional upon the expansion of the war area. So long as the conflict, is confined to France and Prussia, the legitimate effect upon the American market will be comparatively slight. The great granaries of Europe must be rendered inaccessible before the expected result is realized here and that again mplies that Russia and other leading powers will be active participants in the struggle.—N. Y. Times.
A CORRESPONDENT of the New York Sun recently had an interview at, Niagara Falls with ex-President Fillmore. That gentleman, who was for many years in the House of Representatives of the United States, thus expressed himself in regard to one of the greatest outrasres upon individual liberty that was ever perpetrated in this or any other country. He said:
It was the recent absorption of the executive and judicial branches of the Government by the legislative, when Congress arrested Pat. Woods for a local offense, became judsre and jurors, and finallv executed their own sentence by actually imprisoning an American citizen for three months in the District of Columbia prison. "Why, sir," said the venerable statesman, wTith his eyes beamincr witlv solicitude for his country, "this is the first crreat strike at the root of American institutions. It is the fundamental principle of this Government that the legislative, judicial and executive shall be forever "separate, and that the person of one man shall not be sacred above another. Blaekstone teaches that, the "king's person is sacredbut this idea died with the coming of Democracy. The Constitution, Declaration, and every tbinsr in the writings of Jefferson and Hamilton are against H."
From a reading of the papers it would seem that in New York the Tribune, the Sun, the Post and the Commercial Advertiser sympathise with Prussia, and the Herald, the Times and the World with France. In Chicago the Republican, the Tribune and the Post are Prussian, while the Times has a slight leaning to France. In Louisville the Courier-Jour-nal is French. In Boston the Post and the Traveler are French, and the Advertiser is Prussian. In St. Louis the Democrat is Prussian, and the Republican is neutral. The majority of the Northern press decidedly favor Prussia. In the South, the leading journals are for France.—Cincinnati Enquirer.
An Extraordinary Invention. A foreign journal informs us that patents have been taken out in England for an invention which seems to be untutored imagination about as substantial as the philosopher's stone, or perpetual motion, and much less so than a controllable machine for traversing the air. The name of the alleged inventor—Mr. Bessemer—makes the statement appear still more surprising. The discovery is nothing less than "a series of inventions for rendering the passenger accommodation of vessels independent of their external motion," so that sea-sickness is to become obsolete, not in the British Channel only, where the experiment is first to be tried, but all over the world. These inventions, we are not surprised to hear, "have for some time attracted attention and curiosity in the scientific world," although it is certainly somewhat astonishing to find that they "are said to be regarded with great confidence by such of its leading members as have been made acquainted with the details."
A Strange Case.
A daughter of Mr. Jacob Jenkins, living eleven miles from Taylor's Cave, who had been suffering from a seemingly unknown cause last October, was taken violently sick on Wednesday last, and when believed to be in the agonies of death, vomited forth a small snake, about eight inches long. It is supposed to have been taken in while in the act of
drinking,
from a spring near the house,
and to have lived in the child for about eight months, during which time the little girl suffered most acute pain. Though temporarily relieved by the ejection of the reptile, her physical system had been so prostrated that she died on the following evening. This unusual andjremarkable affair has created quite an excitement in the neighborhood of its occurrence.—Knoxville (Term.)Drew.

Destructive Fire.
NEW YORK, July 25.—A very destructive fire, involving a loss of property amounting to nearly three-quarters of a million dollars, broke out last night, in the five story brown stone building on the corner of Broadway and Reichter.
The American Bank-note Company lost a large number of valuable plates for the printing of greenbacks.
About $8,000 worth of unfinished currency was burned up. Major & Knapp, engravers and lithographers, the Union Trust Company, the Delaware & Hudson Coal Company, and others, are heavy losers. Insurance not ascertained.
About eleven o'clock last night, Henry Washter, a German, proprietor of a boarding house on West 35th street, became engaged in a quarrel with one of his boarders, named John Glass, when the latter drew a large pocket-knife and plunged it into Wash ter's groin. Washter fell and expired in a few moments.
Glass ran down to the foot of 34th street and plunged into North River, intending, doubtless, to escape by swimming down the river. Two lads fishing the dock gave the alarm, and officer Donnelly succeeded in securing Glass. The quarrel arose from the fact that Weichter and his wife had been attending atuneral and had locked up the house so Glass could not enter the house when he returned.
A fraud was discovered in vesterday's quotations of 5-20 boads in London, posted on the Stock Exchange and the Gold Room, of 79.}, and then 80}, when the real price was 82} to 82£. The scoundrels that invented and circulated this falsehood were supposed to have reaped a profit in the jump of gold to 120} This false news caused an immediate advance in the price of gold. When the trickery of this false news was discovered, the members of the Gold Room held a meeting to discuss the matter. Resolutions were passed appropriating $5,000 to be used to discover the authors of this imposition.
A small craft named "Red, White and Blue," while going to Sandy Hook to look out for the yachts Cambria and Dauntless, capsized with three reporters on board, this afternoon. The reporters were good swimmers, and all were rescued.
A large number of Western buyers are in town purchasing German goods, which must necessarily rise in price if the war is to continue. German hosiery is in great demand.
FOREIGN, GREAT BRITALV.
LONDON, July 25.—War correspondent of this city telegraphed substance of important interview with Emperor Napoleon. The Emperor attributed the cause of the war to the aggrandizing policy of Prussia. He said with sincerity he had asked Prussia to consent to the cession of Luxemburg.
Count Bismark apprised of France's wishes refused to accede to this request, and suggested the probability of Prussia taking Holland, and attaching it to the Confederation of North Germany. The Emperor said that the attempts of Prussia to absorb Holland were considered open menaces—they meant war with France.
The Times this morning publishes a full text of the state of treaty proposed by France to Prussia, as the price of peace after the war of 1866 between Prussia and Austria, and again revived recently, where France asked the cession of Grand Duchey of Luxemburg, and the conquest of Belgium, assisted by Prussia to permit the fusion of all South and North Germany, excepting the Austrian provinces also recognizing the validity of the acquisitions made by Prussia at the end of the war in Bohemia. To this arrangement the reply of Prussia was curt and decisive. She positively refused to consider any such propositions coming from France, anJ this declaration of Prussia to not listen to any overtures from France was the real cause of the present war.
Letters received from the Orleans Princes, who served during our war, state that France is in a most excellent condition for war, and express confidence that Prussia will be whipped. The whole of the French army is enthusiastic and is trained for the business in hand. The in-
the Chassepot has decided advantages over the needle-gun. The artillery service has been considerably strengthened by the revolving cauons, which will be the great feature of the war. Experiments on horses were made with them in Paris on the 11th inst., when in a very few minutes 300 horses were killed. Prussia comes slowly up to her work, while in France all is enthusiasm.
CHICAGO.
A Japanese Row.
CHICAGO, June 25.—Acompany of Japanese, who are performing here, were going, late last night, to the Lake to bathe, when, in passing a building in which a party of young men were drinking, some one said, "There are those cursed Japs," and threw a stone, striking one of them on the head, inflicting a serious wound.
A quantity of water was also thrown on the heads of the company. The police attempted to arrest the offenders, but all denied it, and no one was identified.
WASHINGTON.
The Rank of lirevet.
WASHINGTON, July 24.—One of the effects of the new Army Bill is already evident in the disuse by the War Department in its special and general orders of the brevet ranks of officers in their details and assignments. This feature is equally as disagreeable to army officers as any other embraced in the provisions of the new law, as many of the offi cers wear their brevet titles by reason of brave" and honorable service, the abolition of which reduces many of them, in their official designations, from Brigadier Generals to Lieutenant Colonels, Majors, and Captains, while in some instances they are reduced even to the grade of Lieutenant. All the Secretaries to the President, and most of the members of General Sherman's staff, although they will probably be known to the country at large as Major and Brigadier Generals, yet fall in their official designations from the War Office, under the new law, to a grade far below what their brevet rank allowed them credit for.

COBLENTZ,July24.—ThePrussian force from Saarloais crossed the French border Saturday to make a reconnoisance in the direction of St. Avalt and Metz. After proceeding some distance they encountered the outposts of the enemy, and had a brisk skirmish with a force of French Chasseurs. The Prussians retired, leaving two men on the field. It is believed the French lost ten or twelve in killed.
It is confidently stated that the Prussians are strengthening Coblentz only with the intention of making it a base of operations, and they intend to throw a force down the line of the Saar and carry an offensive war into France.
BERLIN, July 24, via LONDUIS, July 24.—The oniy written document which Prussia has received from France since the present quarrel reached Berlin on the 13th, Tuesday, and was a declaration of war. It declares that the Emperor of France is oblighed to consider the proposal to elevate a Prussian Prince to the Throne of Spain as an attack on the security of France, and he desires Prussia to disavow the scheme. This Prussia refused to do, reserving her right to be governed by circumstances.
The Queen of Prussia, on leaving the Rhine provinces for Berlin, issued a farewell address to the inhabitants.
She says she has lived twenty years amon» them, and has experienced nothing but kindness and devotion for the Kino-, his children and herself. She would willingly stay, but sacred duties call her elsewhere. The enthusiasm of Germanv is the voice of God her sufferings in the past, and the blessings which have followed them for half a century, warrant continued trust in him for time and eternity. .i
