PACIFIC CABLE.
WIRELESS TELEGRAPH^.
BRISBANE, January 29. Mr Milward, chief electrician of the / Pacific Cable, arrived by the Mioweri* * on his annual tour of inspection. He says the cabie is working exceedingly well, and the traffic is satisfactory as far as it goes. At an early date changes will be made regarding the handing in of messages and placing the Pacific line on the same footing aa the Extension Company. Mr Milward considers the cabhj ; companies have nothing to fear from wireless telegraphy, as there is a great deal of uncertainty in the system. The system is also much slower, though it may prove useful in isolated places where there is insufficient inducement to lay a cable.
