ADDITIONAL STATE NEWS.

Announcement was made last week
by both the local telegraph companies
that they are prepared to handle
long night messages at the rate
customarily charged for ten word
day messages. The charge for this
service will be the standard day rate
for ten words, for the transmission
of fifty words or less, and one-fifth
of such standard day rate will be
charged for each additional ten
words or less. To be taken at this
rate, "night letters" must be
written in plain English language,
that is to say, code words or COM
munications written in foreign Ian
guages will not be accepted. The
messages will be taken at any hour
and transmitted at the company's
convenience during the night for de-
livery the following morning. The
rate is so low it is expected that
the new service will be largely avail
ed of by business concerns and other
to quicken their correspondence by
using the telegraph instead of the
mails. A night letter sent by tele-
graph will reach its destination at
the opening of business hours the
following morning, thus saving as
much as three or four days when long
distances are involved.
