QUEBEC, Sept 5--PM
~ Per North BritoR The Atlantic Telegraph
Company recently reputed Mr.. i. c. Weeb
- Iengineer of considerable experience in
testing and experimenting on telegraph
cables, to proceed to Valentia and examine
the present state Of the Atlantic cable and
his report is published in the English pa.
pers. After determining the scientific re-
suits of his experiments, he concludes as
follows.
am of the opinion that a serious fault
exists about 263 statute miles from Valcntia,
measured along the cable, and that the cable
between the spot and this shore is compare
lively perfect Tests from here cannot now
decide whether the cable is mechanically
severed, as all attempts to detec. the decep-
tons of the most intense currents from the
opposite shore have long since proved fruit
less. Still from various circumstances at
tendant on the decline of the insulation,
there is is every reason TO believe that the
continuity, both of the cable and the con-
ductor is perfect. i.-t t...l
