TELEGRAPH DEPARTMENT (SEVENTEENTH ANNUAL REPORT).

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency.

Office of the Postmaster-General and Commissioner of Telegraphs, g IE Wellington, 16th July, 1881 I have the honor to submit to your Excellency a report on the operations of the Telegraph Department of New Zealand for the twelve months ending the 31st March, 1881 I have, &c, Walter W Johnston, Postmaster-General and Commissioner of Telegraphs. His Excellency the Hon. Sir A. H. Gordon, G.C.M.G.

REPORT The cash revenue for the year was estimated at £80,000. It has fallen short of that amount 7 The value of the Government telegrams for the year amounts to £27,021 3s. Bd., which, added to the value of the private telegrams (£69,634 12s. 7d.) and incidental receipts (£3,367 9s 5d ) shows the gross earnings of the department to amount to £100,023 ss. Bd. Deducting the June quarter telegrams and receipts from the year's collections, as shown in Table G, and comparing the remaining three quarters ending 31st March, 1881, with the correspondingquarters ending March, 1880, there is a falling-off in telegrams to the extent of 37,788, and in cash to the amount of £2,053 3s. 9d. There are evidences, however, that the department is slowly recovering from the depression that has existed during the past year ; for it will be found, on examination of Table C, that the differences between the corresponding quarters for the years ending March, 1880 and 1881, have gradually diminished—viz., the September quarter, 1880, showed a decrease of £919 13s. 4d as compared with September, 1879 ; December, 1880, £626 os. 7d., as compared with December, 1879; and March, 1881, £507 9s. 10d., as compared with the quarter ending March, 1880. The total number of messages of all codes transmitted during the year amounts to 1,0d8,342. The number of telegrams transmitted during the twelve months, as compared with the number of letters posted during the same period, show that for every 100 letters posted 9-71 telegrams were sent. On perusal of Table Bit will be apparent that a considerable fallmg-oft in percentage of telegrams for the year ending March, 1881, has been experienced when compared with any of the previous years. The sudden drop in percentage in 1881 is not, however, solely due to the decrease of telegrams in that particular year, but is in a measure to be accounted for by the very large increase in the number of letters posted in the nine months ending March, 1881 and which exceeded those in 1880, for the same period, by 1,106,482. Doubtless this large increase may be set down to a certain extent to the prevailing monetary depression at the time, but there must have been other causes at work to create such a large increase besides the depression alluded to, and the effect of which must be patent to any close observer—viz., that with the falling-off of trade the users of the telegraph confined their communications by telegraph to strictly their necessities, and made use of the Post Office to a much larger extent than they would have done in more prosperous times. The only other causes, therefore, that could operate in this direction must be due to the increased facilities placed at the disposal of the Post Office by improved steam communication, but more especially by the railway, which has brought points which were far apart comparatively nearer to one another And this conclusion is, to a certain extent borne out by fact, for if Table B is examined closely it will be found that, whilst places ' l—F. 3.

like Taranaki still maintain their percentage of telegrams for every 100 letters posted, Canterbury and similar districts with the increased facilities placed at their disposal by rail and steam have availed themselves to a greater extent of that mode of communication. There can be no doubt that as business improves the telegraph will recover a portion of this traffic lhe Telegraph Department, however, must, in order to maintain itself, open 'up new channels of communication at present inaccessible to its more successful rivals The recent introduction of the telephone will, in a measure, largely enable the department to attain this enS 35 not boTi H T ReSl^ C°Tr Dt SWelHng °f the reCei P ts this means of communication will not be liable to such heavy deductions for skilled labour as in the past when opening new lines and offices; for there are doubtless hundreds of places in New Zealand in which by the ordinary telegraphic means of com mum cation, it would be out of the question foxthT department to entertain the idea of granting them telegraphic facilities on account of the expense attendant thereon ■ but which, by means of the telephone, beyond the expense of erection o/line can be readily granted the boon at a very small additional outlay and annual expenditure All such lines wih act as feeders to the mam trunk lines without trenching on their receipts for itis intended, m opening such stations, to conduct them on the principle of no work no pay in point w'en the remU7 atlon f°l the WOTk done t0 a Pontage on fhe receipts up to aSain point, when the percentage reaches a certain annual amount the department will then step in and, as by previous agreement, make fresh terms. With a view of making such extensions supplies of telephones have been ordered and will shortly arrive. It is fully anticipated that this means of intercommunication will be largely made use of in the future anUClpated that The business done in money-order telegrams during the past year amounts to £58 334 11s. lid., causing 14,497 telegrams to be transmitted at the expense to the senders of £1 696 19s Bd., of which amount £724 17s. represents fees collected by the Post Office on behalf of the department, the balance being the commission charged for the money-orders At the close of the year there were 3,758 miles of line carrying 9,587 miles of wire of the above • during the year 120 miles of line and 254 miles of wire were erected _ The number of stations open to the public at the end of the year was 227 showing an staTons!

This year the debit balance against the department, after taking credit for Government telegrams, amounts to £455 4s. 3d clearly showing the financial position of the department is slowly mending Lhe number of "urgent " telegrams sent during the year amounts to 33,390,' representing a cash value of £5,002 13s 4d., being within a fraction'of 3s. per telegram. The number of M 1 I ««n T^ f°l the SamC P- eri°d am°imts t0 88 '881 i for the ™c months enTg 31s March, 1880 the number transmitted was 65,684, which, after making allowance for the deficient quarter, only shows an increase of some 1,303 telegrams. When this class of telegrams was first introduced, it was thought that many of the users of the telegraph would re sorttoSs cheaper mode of communication and abandon the more expensive, LJ that the department would consequently lose revenue This anticipation has not been realised, for, on examinTng the telegrams of this class, it is evident that the introduction of the system has brought to the department in most cases quite a new class of business, and even where it has been made to take the place of the shilling telegram, it has either been the means of introducing a fresh customer to the department, or has caused to be sent a telegram which under the shilling system wonfd never have been received. It must be remembered also that this class of correspondence is only placed on the wires when the other business is slack, an event which happens in every telegraph system at certain periods of the day, so that really the public who pay the" higher rates suffer no inconvenience from this class of correspondence; and the department, by brine able to hold back these telegrams, can make use of it. unoccupied wire and staff to better advantage. One thing must not be lost sight of, and it is this, that the cheapening of the system has not m any way injured the Post Office ; for every telegram carries postage fee with it which S collected from the sender In addition to the fee for the telegram {he Post Office in the pa year netted by tins class of correspondence, taking all the postages at a penny, some £370 Ih ls amount is however under the actual sum received, for it does not take into accountthat many of the telegrams had to be franked with twopenny stamps, being outside of the town delivery, and consequently liable to the increased postage nffi °n tJ ie +ll lSt ffi' JT^ 1881 ' th! Head °ffice was with the General Post Office, and the office of Secretary and Accountant abolished, the duties belonging to the re spective offices being allotted to the Secretary and Accountant of the General Post Office Ud to the date of this report the amalgamation has worked satisfactorily, and has every aDDParanr-P nf continuing to do so. The Chief Postmasters in the towns where amalgamation ha's beT ed and who have assumed the appointments of Officers-in-Charge, although not technical officers had in some cases, claims superior to those they have supplanted. In all future appointments;

P.—3

however, to such stations, it will be requisite, if this branch of the public service is to be served efficiently, to demand that all officers who aspire for such promotion should qualify themselves for it by possessing a fair amount of technical knowledge, so as not to place them as it were at a disadvantage by having under them officers of superior attainments and whose duties are performed in a subordinate capacity The gradual fusion and interchange of duties m the different offices where such amalgamations have taken place will be carried out as far as practicable ; but this fact must not be lost sight of, that, in order to work the wires to the fullest capacity, the duties of the telegraphist in the larger offices must still be kept distinct and quite apart from any other duty; for telegraphy, like piano-playing,requires constant practice in order to acquire and maintain a certain degree of expertness in the manipulation of the Morse key Prior to the final amalgamation above alluded to it has been the custom of the Telegraph Department to appoint to the small stations, where the duties of postmaster and telegraphist could be performed by one officer, an officer specially trained by the telegraph. This custom m the future will still be adhered to, as it has worked well and cannot be improved upon. Telegraphic appointments to such stations are of the greatest importance, for, where officers are thrown upon their own resources and far away from assistance, it is an absolute necessity that they should possess a certain degree of expertness and technical knowledge to enable them to detect faults in their own offices, and to render such assistance as may be necessary to the central offices in the localization of faults and by alteration of the wires at their own test-boards, in order to keep open as many circuits as possible when the wires fail out of repair, through bad weather and other accidents to which telegraph lines are liable. . The works performed during the past year in the different sections into which the telegraph system is divided are as follows : — From the Bluff to Waitaki River. All the lines and offices from Waitaki to Blueskin have been thoroughly examined. Between Oamaru and Palmerston, at all the railway-crossings, the wires have been placed on thirty-five-feet poles. Between Blueskin and Kilmog Hill the line has been reconstructed, and a loop wire for railway purposes has been led into Hampden and Herbert Railway Stations. The remainder of the lines in this section have had no special repairs made to them excepting such as the lineman in each district have been able to perform, but as many of them as possible during the next twelve months will have the usual examination made by the travelling lineman. The offices at Hampden, Herbert, Waikouaiti, Mosgiel, and Outram have been closed, and the business transferred to the railway-stations at those places, and placed under the control of the station-masters. At Clinton the business has been removed to the railway-station, additional accommodation being previously provided. There has been no amalgamation of staff at this office, but the expense of a mail-carrier has been saved, and the railway officials relieved of the telegraph work performed by them, and the duplicate sets of instruments and batteries done away with. At Woodlands the instruments have been removed from the meat-preserving company's office to the railway station, but uo amalgamation as yet has been effected, as the station-master is not yet sufficiently proficient to perform the duties of the telegraphist. The offices vacated at Hampden and Herbert have been leased as dwellinghouses, and those at Mosgiel and Outram have been transferred to the Railway and Police Departments. The old office at Clinton has been converted into additional quarters for the officers in charge. At Balclutha the department has removed into offices erected on a new site. For the Railway Department.—Two new wires, one for Morse and the other tor block purposes, have been erected between Port Chalmers and Seacliffe, along the railway line vid Purakanui The length of this line is 16 miles, 13 of which have been erected on poles made out of old iron rails. Morse instruments have been fitted up at Waitati and Seacliffe, and the block instruments are ready to be fitted up as soon as the necessary accommodation has been provided by the railway authorities. At Glendermid an electrical signal-repeater and light-out-recording apparatus has been fitted up. A line is now in course of construction from Rtverton to Otautau, on which offices at Thornbury Junction and Otautau will be opened and placed in charge of the railway station-masters, who'will also perform the telegraph duties. The Invercargill lelegraph Office has been amalgamated with the Post Office, and placed under the charge of the Chief Postmaster The Tokomairiro and Albany Street (Dunedin) Telegraph Offices have also been amalgamated, telegraphists, in each case, taking sole charge. The maintenance of all the railway wires and offices 'in this section have been placed under the charge of this department since the Ist June, 1880, the Railway Telegraph Department being abolished from that date The stations on the Catlin's River line—viz., Kaitangata, Nuggets, and Owake, have been turned into telephone-stations, and the Morse instruments done away with; by this alteration a saving of quite £150 per annum has been effected on this branch line. From Cheviot to Waitaki (including Bealey Line as far as Arahura Junction) From Cheviot to Christehurch no repairs of any consequence have been made, but from Christehurch to Waitaki extensive repairs and renewals are in progress, and have been completed as far as St. Andrews. The spans which were originally on this line, five chains, have been reduced to four rendered necessary by the number of wires which the poles had to carry; at the Kakaia, Ashburton, Rangitata, Temuka, and Ophir Rivers the wires have been carried on the railway bridges, and at Selwyn, Orari, and Pareora the rivers are crossed by means of poles supported on iron tubes driven into the river-bed.

The office at the Rakaia has been moved to the railway platform; of the above offices, Sheffield Springfield, Kirwee and St. Andrews have been opened to the public during the past year, and m the suburbs of Christchurch the new office built at Sydenham has been openedLd is worked by telephone in connection with the Ohristchurch office The other portions of this section call for no special comment, the lines with the exception of those specially alluded m the foregoing being in fair condition. From Cheviot to Collingwood and the West Coast Lines (as far as Arahura Junction, including the Ross Line) Vph ThC H frtto Collinf r r )od ' 7 Wch was commenced in February, 1880, was completed in February of this year This extension commences at Motueka and passes through Takaka el route to Collmgwood; an office has been opened at Takaka, and a temporary one at Collingwood pending he erection of the new office. This line is worked by telephone from MotuS, the station at Takaka, for purposes of maintenance, has been placed in charge of a lineman The hne from Richmond to Motueka has been placed in thorough repair ; these repairs were effected by the party in charge of the construction of the Collingwood line. Between Blenheim and Kaikoura the line sustained considerable damage during the month of August last; it is now in good repair The line between Kaikoura and Cheviot is now undergoing a general overhau some of he totara poles erected in 1868, showing signs of decay, have been repkced by new ones and additional poles have been inserted at the Amuri, where the line runs near the sea coast' with a view of improving the insulation by giving each wire a separate support, and thus in a measure avoiding weather contact. Between Reefton and the Lyell the sapling poles in places cut from the mountain totara, on examination showed signs of decay, and it was decided to renew them with sawn totara poles. This work was commenced in April, 1880, and finished in January last. Considerable improvements have been effected, such as strengthening the angles and straightening the line. A deviation was made from the bridle-track to the dray-rokd recently formed at the Bui er River crossing, which will render the line more secure and enable repairs to be more speedily effected. To render the line more secure from falling timber the bush in places has been cleared further back. Between Greymouth and Ahaura during the next summer it is proposed to replace the totara saplings by sawn totara poles, and to further clear the tall bush through which the line passes. The rest of the lines on this section are in good 7S' th • ordinary yearly examination, will not require much expended on them Auckland Lines (including the Waikato, and Lines north of Auckland, and as far south as Grahamstown vid the Thames) The line from Auckland to Grahamstown, with the exception of a few miles, has undergone a thorough overhaul and in several places, where it ran through private property, has been shifted on to the road to facilitate inspection and future maintenance any kauri poles, showin" signs of decay at the ground line, have been blocked with butts cut from the hear of totara and bolted to the kauri pole tor a length of three feet above the ground. The scrub and S places has been cut down in order to render the line secure from fire. It is anticipated this line will not require much money expended on it during the next three years The hne from Grahamstown to Coromaudel has been repaired and strengthened throughout and new totara poles have been inserted where rendered necessary by sundry deviations The tinman s station at Hastings has been closed. During the year there has been very little done to the lines south of Mercer beyond laying gravel round the poles on the Ohaupo line as a safeguard against the peat-bog, which at times takes fire from sparks from the passing engine The line to Alexandra during the next summer will be overhauled, and all defective kauri poles ren dered secure by means of totara blocks. From a pole-to-pole examination of the ManukTu Heads line it has been ascertained that a very heavy percentage of the kauri poles show signs of decay at the ground line, and will have to be supported by totara blocks to render the line

On the lines north of Auckland a repairing-party has been engaged for several months, and have, as far as the Port Albert Junction, completed all necessary repairs; about 7 per cent, of the kauri poles on this line had to be blocked with either blocks cut from the heart of totara or from puriri, where it could be found adjacent to the line. These lines will have to be gone over by a repairing-party every two or three years, until the -whole of the kauri poles have been blocked. It is a noticeable fact that it is only in the rich and moist soil that the kauri poles have suffered decay, those erected in clayey soil being as sound as ever "A lineman's station has been opened at Te Koporu, on the Dargaville line ; and at Kamo, on the Bay of Islands line, a station is in course of erection, and will be opened shortly The office at Grahamstown has been amalgamated with the Post Office, and the Chief Postmaster placed in charge in order to carry out this arrangement. The Post Office removed its business to the premises occupied by the Telegraph Department. The railway wires and stations in the Auckland District are also under the charge of this department. From Grahamstown to Tenth (including the Branch Lines Napier to Gisborne, Maketu to Opotoki, and Waipukurau to Kopua) The principal works performed in this section during the year are as follow: At Port Ahuriri the telegraph wires have been diverted from the old crossing and placed on the bridge. This alteration has given increased facilities for inspection and repairs. At Petane half-a-mile of the line, which intersected plantations, has been removed to the road, and a short advantageous alteration has been made in the line near Te lioroto. On the Ohinemutu loop, the wires on examination, were found to be very much corroded, caused by the sulphurous exhalations from the ground in places; as a temporary measure they have been secured by fixing bridles at the insulators. Sufficient wire has been, however, left at the station for renewal of the loop; at present the corrosion has not reached that stage of decay as to warrant immediate renewal. On the Tauranga and Katikati, line the wires formerly crossing the indentations of the harbour and also across fenced lauds, have now been removed to the main road. These alterations have effected a great saving of time in the examination of the line for faults. The aggregate length of Hue diverted is about twelve miles. On the Gisborne line, frequent defective and imperfect working, through loss of insulation, was experienced during bad weather The faulty insulation has been localized by tests to the 30 miles of line between Wairoa and the Mahenga. The line between these two points runs in close proximity to the sea. In order to remedy the defect as much as possible that portion of the line has been reinsulated, Siemeu's white porcelain insulators being used for that purpose. This line throughout its length has been overhauled, and, in addition to the ordinary operations incumbent upon an overhauling-party, has had the following works executed—viz.: The tracks through the bush between Mahia and Muriwai has been repaired and the bush cleared where found overgrown; four miles of line near Gisborne has been shifted on account of the road formations, and, at Wairoa, the mast on the right bank of the river has been re-erected in a safer position, and some few poles in the township removed to make room for footpath formation. The other lines overhauled and repaired are—Napier to Tauranga, Maketu to Opotiki, Napier to Porangahau, and the branch line to Kopua. The line between Katikati and Grahamstown is now undergoing an overhaul, and is about half completed. The track over the bush ranges, between Waihi and Hikutaia Valley, is in course of repair, and all defective kauri poles are being renewed. Holding in view, however, the probable diversion of the mainline round by Ohinemuri, the repairs in this line are being confined to those rendered absolutely necessary for maintaining its stability The lines from Tenui to Porangahau is also undergoing an overhaul, and will be completed about the end of April. The office at Gisborne has been amalgamated with the Post Office, and placed under the charge of the Chief Postmaster; and the office at Katikati has been closed, and one opened at Uretara in premises leased for that purpose. Wellington to New Plymouth via Wanganui (including the Branch Lines to Palmerston North, Woodville, and also the North Trunk Line from Wellington to Auckland as far as Tenui and Castlepoint) From Tenui to Wellington the line during the summer months has been carefully overhauled, all the poles being examined, and reset where necessary The line between Kaiwarra and Petone has been placed in the inland side of the railway, and thus removed further back from the edge of the harbour This was to a certain extent rendered necessary by the faulty insulation, and partly to suit the railway requirements. By the removal in some places the line has been placed at a greater height above the sea level, and in a measure placed out of the reach of spray from the sea, which used to affect the wires in heavy southerly weather. Owing to the number of casualties caused by the snow on the Rimutaka ranges, all the long spans have been shortened, and in order to locate faults with greater exactitude, all the wires have been looped into the rail-way-station at Kaitoke. At the Upper Hutt Railway Station the wires have also been looped in, and the telegraph office on the main road closed, the business having been removed to the railway-station, and the duties of telegraphist and postmaster amalgamated with those of station-
