The Importance OF the new de.

Mr.. Koenigsberg as follows:
Possibilities for newspapers nc
cruing from the invention are, Of

increase in the volume Of telegraph
news will result. We win no longer
be dependent upon the number Of
built and Installed lines. Il win
mean, as said before, that small
town newspapers win be afforded
service at rates utterly impossible
