Change in Signal Codes.

WASHINGTON. July 2.-By q general order
issued from army headquarters the Amer
lean Morse code will hereafter be used by
the army for all purposes of signaling
whether visual or acoustic. and the use of
the English Morse or continental code will
be discontinued. This action was taken
upon the recommendation of the chief sig
nal officer with view to the simplifcation
ployment and utilization in time of war of
skilled civilian telegraphers for military
purposes. Fewer errors are supposed to re-
suit from the use of the English system,
but it is slower than the American system,
and its continuance would involve the en-
ployment of specially trained experts, who
could not be procured in sufficient num-
bers In an emergency.
