I have the honour to inform Your

Lordship that in April of last year the Director of the

Observatory drew my attention to the fact that owing to

constant interruptions in telegraphic communication with

the Gap Rock Lighthouse the framing of local storm warnings,

which largely depends on comparison between observations

made at the Lighthouse and those made at the same time at

the Observatory, was rendered impossible. Dr. Doberck

with Gap Rock was interrupted on 146 days, and that up to

the date of his report the connection had been interrupted

on 37 days out of 107.
