THE ERDUCTIONS.

I am glad to say also that the negotiations whil have boon proceeding for some time with the able companies for reducing by one-half thenates plain language non-urgent ceblegrams boireen the United Kingdora, India, the Desintens, the Crown Colonies, and the United States have prored successful; and the ner arrangements will take effect on January 1 next. Iulieipate that the concurrence of certain fongn Administrations will mon bo obtained, and that the scheme will shortly be extended to masy other parts of the world. Under the new ions of the Telegraph Convention the regulations of us of pedes has been largely extended, and code telegramas con be sent cheaply. I hope tlast the new tarlits will be of service to the renders of Press-and-private mes sages in plain langunga, which are not of an urgent character, with respect to which the orating rates press heavily. No appreciable cat will fall upon the Treasury through these cburger.

I would add that I propose also to introduce LATEST STEAMER MOVEMENTS.

experimentally the system of cheap night tele- gs into this country, so as to make fuller us of the telegraph system during hours when it is now idle. The public are likely to use ach a facility only to distant places, as the post will naturally to preferred where it is equally serviceable. At the ontest the system will be tried between London and Aberdeen, and be treon London and Belfast. The charge will be 6. for 36 words and d. for every three words thereafter. The telegrems will be accepted up to midnight at the bead offres and will be de lived with the first morning delivery of Litters

If the system is found to be of use to the public it will be extended to other places. (Cheers)

In answer to supplementary questions.

Herbert Samuel said that Press tele- Bar at reduced rates for transmission to the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand would be nocepted at any hour. Reply lg to the question whether the chospacing of able rates to the West Indies had engaged the ittention of the Government, ho stated that the half-rate telegrain system would extend to practically all the Crown Colonies,
