Letters By Telegraph.
Announcement is made by the
Western Union Telegraph Com]
pany that it will shortly be pre-
pared to handle long night mes-
sages at the rates customarily
charged for ten-word day' messa-
ges.
It appears that the Western
Union has a large unemployed
mileage of wire at night which is
not taming anything. These
wires must be maintained in any
event to take care of the regular
day business, and it is apparently
the idea of the new interests in
the telegraph company to let the
public have the benefit of them.
The announcement states that a
"Special Night Letter Service
will be established as soon as
practicable." The charge for this
service will be the standard day
rate for ten words, for the trans-
mission of fifty words or less, and
one-fifth of such standard day
rate will "be chai ged for each ad-
dition ol ten words or less.

To- be taken at these rates
"Night Letters" must be written
in plain English language, that is
to say, code words or communi-
cations written in foreign lan-
guages will not be accepted. The
messages will be taken at any
hour up to midnight and trans-
mitted at the company's conveni-
ence during the night for delivery
the following morning. For the
present the new service is con-
fined to the Western Union offi-
ces in the United States. The
tariffs charged for Night Letteis
are so low it is expected that the
new service will be largely availed
of by business concerns and oth-
ers to quicken their correspon-
dence by using the telegraph in-
stead of the mails. A Night Let-
ter sent by telegraph will reach
its destination at the opening of
business hours the following
morning, thus saving as much as
three or four days when long dis-
tances are involved.
