that purpose beer and porter bottles were

Mr.: Ward asserts that he performed an
equally important service with respect to
the first Atlantic cable. He declared in adj
vance that the recording instrument would
not work, because current OF electricity

at distance of 1900 miles would melt the
wire. Preliminary experiments proved that
he was correct As q result the stock of the
cable company dropped almost to nothing.
Four Of the directors drew out and sold
their interest In the enterprise for what they
could get. For the time 1t was believed that
the great enterprise could not be carried to
q successful issue, the obstacle being an

gested that an alphabet could be sent over

which guns that would be much stronger

history of the war of independence he

The crisis Of the military struggle be-

The object was to strike tremendous
blow at the center Of the confederacy.

colonies.
Orders were sent out from London for the
advance of Burgoynes and st. Leger's
forces from Canada At first Sir William

was armed with discretionary powers: but
finally q dispatch was drafted, positively
ordering him to cooperate in the move

reprimanded the culprit and ordered q
fresh copy to be made without flaw or

on to his country seat without waiting for
the fresh copy.
The military order was laboriously copied
In the clerks best hand, but when 1t was
finished the minister was not there to sign
it. It was pigeon-holed and overlooked
when he returned and was not sent to
America until long afterward.
Sir William Howe. being left with full
discretion, allowed himself to be drawn
into military operations against Washing
tons army near Philadelphia. Burgoyne's
army was entrapped, cut off from retreat,
and forced to surrender at Saratoga. The
fortunes Of the revolutionary war turned
upon the carelessness Of an English copy
list.
The minister was more culpable than the
clerk. Evidently he thought 50. for he sup

dispatch has only recently been revealed
and Sir William Howes lack of co-opera-
