Borrowing Money by Wireless
TeIegraphy.
(The Worlds Work.)

To borrow money from ship 100 miles
away would have been an impossible feat
a year or 50 ago, but recently it was &C
comp1ished by telegraph. A young man
found himself aboard ship, homeward
bound, his passage paid, but without
money for incidental expenses and for
landing. He knew that his mother was
OH an eastbound ship. The probable
date and hour of the meeting of the two
vessels were calculated. The purser of
the eastbound ship was instructed to lay
the unfortunate's case before his mother.
1t took but a few minutes for her to
place money in the hands of her purser,
who instructed the purser of the west
bound liner to pay it to his passenger.
The charge for transmitting messages
from ship to ship at sea is sixpence a
word, with the address and signature
free
