Wa hear from other sources that this information is probably correct, and that the Chinese are disposed to act in the way of telegraphs more off their own bat. They are now not nearly so ready to ratify the late Chefco Telegraph Conventies, which the Marquis Theng so vigorously fought us to the time of his death. They have discovered that the fixed sum of Tis. 100,000, which under the agreement It was proposed should be annually handed to them, might represent only a small portion of the receibes were to join with the Russian LBR Collar with name LOTTI the receipts they could obtala by adopting other

With such connections the Chineso Telegraph Administration would be in a very strong position, and one which the opponents of the Chafoo Convention have pointed out to them that they should take up. If they connect with the Russian laes at Klachta, and the British Indian Government shows a little more alacrity in connecting its Burmah systems with the Chinese lines fa Yunnan, it is quite certain

There need then be no talk of a Pacific cable, on which Dar Stanghal friends seem to be so keen, to release them from the thrall now over them, We do not say that a cable some 4,300 miles cannot be lald; but it would be a bold under- taking, and the chance of sharehsiders receiving dividends would be amail Indeed.

If the Chinese will now undertako in earnest the laying of the land lises from Peking to Klachte, which are roughly some 1,000 to 1,200 miles apart in distance, they will be in a position to successfully compete with the existing cable. Whether they will make the proper use of the situation is, unfortunately, another matter." They will have to considerably brush up their presant style of conducting their telegraph service.

·Complaints at the present time of extensive delays are much too frequent, and, unless theas are remedied, they will lose half their advantage. The vital essence of the telegraph Is speech.
