A noticeable feature of the invention is that it is possible to ensure the strict accracy of the communication 'which it is desired to make, I is sufficient to set the cylinder at a number of turas agreed on balorehand, and only those who have their apparatus ses accordingly will receive the massage. Thus, if the Minister of War wishes to send a secret dispatch, it is only necessary to agree that ope corps shall have its apparatus set at 30 turas, another at 35, and. soon, and only the corps designated will re recaive the dispatch sent.

Another development will br, in trade, that urgent orders' can be transmitted. In most cases firms will only transmit on receipt ba written. order. This can now be done without any loss of time by the tolautographone.

DISCOUNT RECORDED ON FORWARD SILVER. 1,15 pimi and

Messrs. Samuel Montagu's' report, of Octo: ber 22, is as follows;—

Bat Gold was again keenly in demand for France, and the greater portion of the half a million starling on the market was secured for that quarter on the basin of 77/11jd.

The following withdrawals were made for abroad

October 15, LI00,000 in Kovereigns for Egypt and 251,000 in oversigas for Buenos Ayres; October 16, £75,000 in sovereign for Sweden, and October 17, £50,000 in sovereigns for Buenos Ayres, peop

The Bank of England notified the receipt of £100,000 in sovereigas from Egypt on the 17th instant.

The most noticeable feature of the wook has beed the appearance of a "discount oq, forward silver for the first time since the 3rd August, 1907.

..

The shortage of cash silver, which this seems to foreshadow, is more apparent than real, and the heavy shipment-well over half a million sterling and possibly a record which is being made by this week's P. and O. steamer to meet the November settlement in Bombay-meraly transfers the London stock to the already ab normal one in Bombay of about one million sterling.
