lnufcauhg considerable leakage on board the
AgamemnOn.
L am also informed that the currents through
the cable, even Immediately after il was sub
merged, were 50 weak that relays were useless
and that not one perfect message was recorded
Dy tnem, every thing that was received being
read from the detection of galvanometer.
BY comparing the above data with those of
the new cable now making by Messrs GIasse
aud Elliott for the Electric and lnternationa al
Telegraph Company, the amount of current
which entered the 900 miles of cable whe
disconnected n one end should not have ex-
eeeded or 2-2j parts instead of ID and So
parts. -
The inference by rough calculation, there
lore, IS that there was a fault Offering a resist
anes equal 70 LOCO or I, 200 miles Of cable sit
u2ted at a distance, about 500 miles from one
end Oi the zoo mile coil on board the Aga
msmnon.
This, however, cannot be the fault first
alluded TO, situate at about 270 miles from
Nslentia, but may have been the one which
caused such alarm when the ships we're 500
miles from Ireland and when the signals ceased
altogether and never certainly recovered
IL Is not at all Improbable that the powerful
currents from the large induction coils have
impaired the Insulation and that had more
moderate power been used the cable would
sui have been capable of transmitting mes
sages-
To satisfy myself on this point, L attached TO
the cable piece Of gutta percha covered wire,
having first made a slight incision in the quits a
percha TO let the water reach the wire: the
wire was then bent 50 as To close up the defect.
The defective wire was then placed in Jug Of
sea water and the latter connected with the
earth. After few signals had been sent
from the induction coils into the cable and
consequently, into the test wire, the electricity
burnt through the ineision, rapidly burning .
hole nearly one-tenth Of an inch in diameter
When the full force Of the coils was brought
20 bear on the test wire by removing them irOm
the cable and allowing the electricity only one
ehannel-yiE., that Of the test wire-the dis
charges, as might be expected, burnt hole in
the gutta percha under the water half an inch
in length, and the burnt gutta percha caius
floating up TO the surface.
The foregoing experiments prove that When
there are imperfections In the insula ing GOV
ering there is very great danger arising from
using such intense currents.
