The Telephone.

Mr.. w. H. PREECK Chief
of the British Post-Office. delivered lee
ture recently in Frankfort which contains
q number Of interesting statements. In
regard to the telephone between London
and Paris, which is 81 miles long, he said:
"Thcre Is no circuit In or out OF London on which
speech Is more perfect. We have spoken also
between London and Brussels, Lyon and Mar
settles, the latter circuit being LAO hlometers
long.
Tho charge for o conversation botweon Lon
don and Paris Is two dollars for three minutes
use Of the wire. The average number OF talks
per day Is SO. The maximum In one day has
been 1iS. We have had "a many calls as 10
per hour. Four hundred and fifty words have
been sent and recorded In three minutes, which
means five nords for tteo cents"
He does not state the distance which
this telephone runs under water. but it is.
we think, twenty-one miles. 1t would
seem that as anybody can use the tele-
phone and only few persons compare
lively can use the telegraph the former
ought TO be much more generally en-
ployed than the latter.
The reader will notice that Mr.. PRIEog is
an officer of the postal department, though
he is an electrician. This reminds us that
We in this country must have the tels-
graph made part Of our postal system.

Injustice to Richmond.

Richmond sorely needs an earlier morn
ing train from this city westward over the
Chesapeake and Ohio railway.
Our newspapers and our merchants and
manufacturers are placed at q lamentable
disadvantage by the existing schedule.
1t has always been bad enough, but it Is
worse now than ever before because the
trains from Washington and Baltimore
now put their mails and passengers in Pied
mont Virginia before our train is fairly out
of the depot.
If this arrangement is suffered to con-
tinue large portion Of Middle Virginia.
which has long traded with us, will find it
more convenient to do business with
northern cities. and in the end they will
he as efrectualy cut off from us as those OF
the Upper Valley have been for, 10! these
many years.
Citizens Of Richmond ana those Of all
the counties and towns interested should
make the most vigorous remonstrances
possible against the continuance of this
arrangement. II will not do. 1t Is very
hurtful to us, and we should, therefore,
lift our voices in unceasing protest as long
US it is allowed to last.

LINE-cARRYING PROJeCTILES.
For Use In Cases of Marine Disaster-Sp'
cial Report Thereon.
(By telegraph to the Dispatch.l

WASHINGTON. D. c., October 12.-The
Board Of Supervising inspectors of Steam
Vessels, which was specially convened for
the purpose of determining the best sys-
TEN of line-carrylng prolectiles for use IN
case Of marine disasters, has made a re-
port to the Secretary of the Treasury. in
which IT states II is unable with the data
n. hand TO determine the question as to
whether certain guns and rockets can be
used with safety 10 the lives of those
having occasion to use them without prac-
teal tests. The board. therefore, recon-
mends that the question be referred to the
Ordnance Bureau Of the War Department
as possessing the best facilities for con-
Quoting the experiments. The board
makes an adverse report on the sugges-
ton that line-carrying proiectlles with
firing apparatus might be advantageously
carried on wheels, and says it has not yet
been demonstrated that the plan suggest
ed for getting line from ship in distress
TO the shore-namely, by guns or rockets
can be used without subjecting the pas
sengers and crew to dangers not less APP
palling than shlpwreck itself. Among the
things TO be feared is the recoil and pos
sible explosion of the gun and the explo-
sion Of ammunition for the same when
carried as stores. The board. therefore,
recommends the repeal of the amendment
to sections Ass and 4is9. Revised Statutes,
until safe and feasible means can be in
vented TO accomplish the object contem-
plated by such amendment. both i'll the
use and the carriage of apparatus.

Governor Hill Coming to Richmond.


There seems to be no doubt of the pur-
pose Of Governor ID. b. HILL, of New York.
90 accept the invitation extended him by
the Powhatan Club to visit this city on the
10th instant
He will have cordial welcome. Thou
sands Of his admirers wish an opportunity
20 look into his face and hear the sound of
his voice. He is known everywhere as
fearless Democrat. and the leadership that
he has so long held in the Empire State
stamps him as a man Of great capacity.
1t will be his first visit to Richmond, but
not to Virginia. and 1t happens that the
day when he will be here will be the 10th
anniversary Of the surrender Of Lord Com
WALLIS to General WASHINGTON, and this
may furnish him with good theme for a
discourse to the sons Of those sizes who
fought with WASHINGTON and LAFAYETTE.
CREME and LINCOLN.
Though all Of our people have not yet
made up their minds AS to who should be
the Democratic nominee for President in
l692 it is generally conceded that Mr.. HILL
70 one who has good reason aud right to
aspire 10 that exalted office, and though his
southwark trip Is fratornal rather than
political in purpose. we need not shut our
Dyes 70 the fact that his name Is often
mentioned in this connection
Richmond will be proud TO have him
here. and all Democrats will heartily join
the Powhatan Club in the duties of hospi-
tAlity.
The Governor expects TO spend some
days at Monticello, and is booked for the
Grafton Of the day at the unveiling Of the
GRADY statue at Atlanta and If we are
correctly informed will pass through
Richmond IN route 10 Atlanta.

JAMES CITY DEMOCRATS.
Addresses Delivered by the Legislative

CandieRtes-Mr. GarulntE lyier.
rCorrespondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. October i2.-About
half-past II to-day recess OF the County
Court was taken for dinner and to allow
the legislative candidates, Tyler and Craw-
ford, to appear before the people. county
Chairman Andrew J. Barnes called the
meeting TO order. On the piatI9rih wore
seated Mr.. Gardiner Tyler candidate for
the Senate. DR.. John Crawford, candidate
for the House. and Judge W. q. ". Earth
ing. who introduced the speakers in most
approprlate and well-delivered remarks.
Both of them made brief addresses.
DIR. T.. u. Booth offered the following re-
solution, which was unanimously adopted:
Resoired. That we. the Democrats OF the
county Of James City, do hereby heartily
endorse the course of Hon. Charles L:
O'Ferrall in the Congress OF the United
States. and do tender to him our profound
gratitude for his able efforts in defeating
the iniquitous force bill which was at,
tempted by the Republican party. and
further we request that Colonel O'Ferrall be
requested TO address the Democrats oil this
county and vicinity.
OUR pESISsULAB CANDIDATE.
The new senatorial candidate from the
pcninsular. ID. Gardiner Tyler, of Charles
CITY county, was born in 1910. and Is the
Oldest son Of President Tyler by. his second
marriage. While student OF Washing
ton College he joined the Coniede-
rate army, and though his, family
influence would have been doubtless
sufficient to have ensured him some
honorary position. he served as private
in the ranks until the surrender at Apo
mattox. After the war he went TO Ger
many, where he studied at Carlsruhe two
wears. Returning home in 1861. he studied
law under Judge Brockenbrough at Wash
inQton and Lee. Since that time Mr.
TYLER has resided at Sherwood Forest"
in Charles City county, where throughout
all the years which have INTERVIEWED since
the war he has been unflinching IN his
advocacy Of Democratic principles. No
better selection for the Office OF senator
could have been made. AZ CONVEX
sationalist, au orator, and man OF fine
literary attainments, Mr.. Tyler is without a
superior in the State. His speeches are
always delivered off-hand and yet are
forcible and interesting. He IS one who
has come as near Us possible To the ideal oil
the statesman who never seeks the of.1ce,
but demands the office TO seek him. Modest
and retiring. he makes principle every
thing. Office and am bition as nothing. Ills
friends yet hope to see him IN the highest
Office Virginia can bestow.
