INSTRUCTIONS

This Cipher Code has been compiled to meet the requirements of telegraphic correspondence between the Examiners and Receivers, with special reference to brevity, secrecy, and economy. The Examiner and Receiver should study the Code carefully, so as to become familiar with its use, should always have it with them, and should regard it as strictly confidential, being careful not to allow it to fall into other hands. In preparing a message in cipher ample space should be left between words and sentences to avoid their being run together by the telegraph operator. The writing should be legible, and to insure accuracy opera­ tors should be requested to read messages to the Examiner or Receiver before they are forwarded. A variety of phrases have been carefully selected and arranged, which experience in the conduct of official telegraphic correspondence has shown to be most appro­ priate and essential, by the proper use of which many sentences or messages may be expressed by a single cipher word. Please note that there are a number of phrases under each of the following initial words:

According t o----- Go Advise------ Has been - After----- Have been As far a s----- H ave----- As soon a s----- How By order----- I

C an----- If Did In Do n o t----- Is Full It Further ------ M ust-----

Where no cipher word is given for a phrase which it is desired to use, single wcrds will be found with which to construct a sentence. The first letter of any cipher word will be the same as that of the word or phrase it represents. The Examiner (or Receiver) should sign the initials only of his name to the message, giving in cipher his official title. The cipher words for Examiner and Receiver are “Equitant” and “Rambler”, respectively. Cipher words will be found commencing with the letter “ Q” on pages 91 and 92 to express numerals and should be used to indicate sums of money, dates, and numbers.
