A New System of Telegraphy

A NEW system of telegraphy is now in working order between Budapest, Hungary, and Fiume, on the Adriatic Sea. This system is an ingenious combination of the telephone, the telegraph, and photography, messages being written on sensitized paper by ray light, and developed and fixed by an automatic process. A speed of 40,000 words an hour is claimed for this new system. The line now working is 375 miles in length, and negotiations are now in progress for the installation of the system in other countries.
