It is nut generally known that the earliest experiments in electri cal communication were made with the expectation of using under ground wires. In 1843 congress ap propriated $30,000 to enable Pro fessor Morse to test his newly in vented telegraph on a line between Washington and Baltimore. A Maine man interested in the plow business had taken the con tract to lay the pipe containing the wires at $100 per mile, and Ezra Cornell happened to call at hia of fice in Portland whan he was trying to invent a machine to do the work. Mr. Cornell at once sketched a ma chine something like a plow, which would cut a deep and narrow fur row and lay the pipe In the furrow as it moved along. Professor Morse asked Mr. Cornell to bnild such a machine, and the contrivance prov ing practicable Mr. Cornell was ask ed to take charge of laying the pipe. The work was begun at Balti more in October, 1843, and- went forward satisfactorily, but the dis covery was presently made that im perfect insulation allowed the cur rent to escape from one wire to an other. A serious crisis was at hand. The appropriation for the experi ment was nearly exhausted, and Professor Morse felt that to sus pend operations at that stage would be a confession of failure. Accordingly Professor Morse call ed Mr. Cornell said« and said: “ Can’t you contrive somehow to stop the work for a few days so that the papers will not know that it.has been purposely interrupted? I want to make some experiments before any more pipe is hud.” Cornell stepped back to the ma chine and shouted: “ Hurrah, boys, whip np your moles! Wa most lay another length of pipe before we quit for the night I” The teamsters cracked their whips, the animals started at a lively pace. Mr. Cornell grasped the handles of the plow ana, watching his oppor tunity, canted it over so as to catch into a point of rock. The machine was completely wrecked. The experiments that Professor Morse made decided him to put the wires on poles. By the following the line between Washington and Baltimore was in operation^—’ Youth’s Companion.
