A Pitre once’ idea tight’ which now know the gossip of each other’s market places, forums and bou- doirs as soon as they are known at home-—started in earnest only three quarters of a century ago after Samuel F. B. Morse proved with the telegraph that distances over land were slight barriers to exchanging signals. It is perhaps little known that Morse also was one of the first to experiment with under-water signaling. fully sending messages through a wire laid under part of New York harbor from Castle Garden (now York City Aquarium) to Governor's Island, he gave it ag his opinion that signaling over a properly built cable between Europe and America should be possible. “T‘he first efforts to realize Morse's prediction, in the late forties, were fall ures, nor cable-laying had been the cable broke again and again, and the broken end was finally abandoned in mid-Atlantic. ly successtul submarine cable was laid as the result of the much less ambiti- ous desire to connect France, long, was laid under the Straights of Dover in 1851. cables: Italy to Corsica and Sardinia, Sardinia to Africa, Scotland to Ireland, and a length in the Black Sea. “In 1857 Europe and America were first connected by cableés and messages were exchanged for. several But the insulation of the cable was destroyed by strength and the two continents were again without electric communication for nearly ten years. connect Europe with India through the Red Sea was the next ambitious cable project but it, too, was a failure. The S first successful long cable, chiefly use- | ful for commercial purposes, was laid, fittingly enough, in the waters of the Mediter'hnean where commercial na- tions first sprang up. e from Malta to Alexandria and was opened in 1861. “Europe news from the United States during the | 1y, Civil ' War, but in 1866 the Atlantic was finally electrically bridge, and the con- nection between the Old Worlds has since been continuous. In 1869 a cable was laid from France to the United States. laid from the British Isles, and later | ,, direct connection was establigshed be- tween Garmany and America. beginning of the Worid War thirteen trans-Atlantic cables were in opera- tion between Europe and the United States. “Once the north Aflantic was bound by the great metal strands, these far- reaching tontacles of man’s intelligence began to stretch out under the waters of all the earth’'s oceans. Isles were tied to the Continent by numerous cables reaching to France, Belgium, and Holland. avian countries were connected with each other and Germany, Portugal lald a cable to Brazil, and after this pioneer others followed at various points across the south Atlantic. A line through the Mediterranian_and the Red connected Engzland with India, Australia, the East Indies and China. Another doubled Africa and reached the same oObjec- tives. inally in 1902 the greatest of cable- g projects were undertaken—the layi crossing of the Pacific. fic line was laid by a British company from Vancouver, British Columbia, to Australia, a distance of 7,800 miles. “The Pacific with its vast distances illustrates admirably the cable-created need for the ownership of small islands for which, during the latter part of the last century, there was much com- petition, little understood by many layment. cables weakly at best, and there are definite which Island ‘relay . stations, come vital necessities.
