A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT. COLOURED PICTURES TRANSMITTED. BY CABLE-—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT Received Aug 29, 9.35 a.m. NEW YORK, Aug. 28. Tiie Tribune announces that a successful test has been completed by which a coloured picture, placed m the American Telephone and Telegraph Company's apparatus at Chicago ivas reproduced in New York, in all the original colours, within an hour. The keynote of the process lies in screening out all the colours but one from any picture, and transmitting the same over the wire, and repeating this for the primary colours, red, yellow, and blue. Three pictures upon receipt were reassembled, reproducing the original in all its shades. There is pne principal difference compared with the transmission of ordinary black and white photographs, namely, the lines- in one picture were at an angle of sixty degrees to the lines in the other pictures. The Tribune attributes the development to Stephen Bor nan. associ-ate-editor of the publication the Inland Printer, and a noted American colour expert.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
