Letters from Valentis, reporting the cleo
tTicai condition of the CABLE say that the fau 1t
was no worse; for occasionally considerable
and distinct reversas from Newfoundland,
were discernible. The opinion that the prin-
cipal fault in the cable is near the shore daily

opinion was directly opposed to such sup
position. 1t was supposed that something
would be done towards under running and
repairing the cable during October, which is
generally line month on the Irish coast.

was hoped that they would be able to work
through the cable some part of each day, even

nearly the unanimous opinion at Valentia,
that the laying of ten or twelve miles of thick
shore ends of the cable would tend perma-
nently to obviate many of the difficulties.

not sufficiently thick. He said the cable I'M
