MR. CHAMBERLAIN'S GREAT SPEECH. oi ITS REPORT BY ELECTROPHONE. A^, r INTERESTING EXPERIENCE. (From Our Own Correspondent.) LONDON, 30ih January. Ono of tho nittet remarkable developmouUs that lina Liken place in recent years is 'that in connection with the telephone, and Hint imptovemenl upon- it — the electiophone. On tho occasion of Mr. Chuinbenain'w deliveranco of Ins great speech nt tho Guildhall a few dnys dgo it was determined to gather larger audiences than eoukl pcssibly be got into that hLitoric chamber. Therefore the People's Palace, in (In* East Knd of London, and tho Queen's Hall in the West End, were secured specially, ami each building was packed Mi tli an audience which was to hear Mr. ChamlM:rlain's speech, delivered vivji voce, at the twine time that the great orator himself was addressing his audience at the GuildhaJl. Those gathered at the extreme end« of London. wereniot disappointed, for tho speech was heard by them shnultaneoualy with its delivery. Tho ntodus opcrandi was JiB follows: On tho table before Mr. Chamberlain in tho Guildhall was a littk receiver; from tfiut along the- ordinary telephone- wires the speaker's voice.- was conducted to two corps of reporters, ten to each corps, who leportcd tho speech in short "takes." These "takes"- were typewritten and handed to two trained elocutionists at each of the hnlls named and docla-imed by them. So speedy was the whole arrangement tlmt three minutes after Mr. Chamberlain had concluded at tho Guildhall, tho whole of the speech, typewritten, was in the hand.* of the elo- > cutuonists at tho People's Palace, and eight minutes afterward tho whole- had been read. A member of my wtntf who assisted in the People's Palace corps fiuys the speech itself was most distinctly heard ; in fact, a comparison of the note taken with tliat taken at the Guildhall itself, showed the, electrophone note to have, been more peifect, the interruptions at the Guildhall meeting having interfered with tho reporting. Of ll»e / speech itself, 1 need say little. Substantially, all that was worth sending wus duly fi»r\vard»>d by cablegram, and, indeed, it was largely a reproduction in different phraseology of what ho had «iid before "many a time and oft." Its principal feature of "local colour" was Ins remark that tho City of London was "tho clearing house of thfc world," whence lie argued that, tho fiscal question was ono that must needs affect the interests of tho City tnewt intimately. Another utteranco which evoked a storm of enthusiasm was his adjuration to his hearers tlmt they .should learn to "think Imperially !" Undoubtedly tho speech was one of Mr. Chamberlain's finest efforts, and it in bo fur historic that it may be regarded as closing the first campaign of the great fiscal war ho Ikim initiated. Damage to the extent of £5 was done to tho weighing machine at tho l'ctonu railway station on Friday evening, and a man named John Phillips, arrested for drunkenness, was nl&o charged with doing tho damage referred to. Ho appeared before Messrs. Pirani nnd Mothes, Justices of tho Pence, this morning, and was fined £3 or seven days' imprisonment on tho charge of drunkenness, and was uu1 quitted on the major charge. The Bencli considered tho evidence was not strong enough to wurrant a, conviction. Edwin JnmeaStc'ele, a young man, admitted thi»s mMiiing, at the Police Court, a chargo of liaving stolen a ring, two silk handkerchief:*, and certain cash, of a total value of 39**, tho property of GeorgelUnry Athea. 'the police explained thut ! defendant lodged with tho 1 prosecutor, and took tiro articles from prosecutor's clothing whilst ho was at work. On the Bth of la&t month he was discharged from the Lyttelton Gaol after serving three months' Imprisonment for theft. Dr. A. AP Arthur, S.M., ordered prisoner to be kept in tho Wellington Gaol for a similar period. A steward on board^he lonic named Ernest Jeffs was fined 20s, in default seven clans' imprisonment on a. chuxgo of having used obscene language on the Queen's Wharf. A similar case was adjourned on Mr. Ilerd man's application until Friday. A prohibited person named Richard Elliott was fined 20s, with 7s costs, in default aaven days' imprisonment, for liaving entered licensed premibes. A charge, of having procured liquor for a prohibited person, was adjourned until tho 14th inst. Three firstoffending inebriates were dealt with in the usual way. Representations were recently made by Mr. T. Wilford, M.H.R,, on behalf o"f settlors at Akatarawa to have the back boundaries of certain properties in that district completed. The Minister of Lands has. informed Sir. Wilford that instructions have been given to employ a licensed surveyor in surveying the buck lino on Iho eastern sklo of Akatarawa, and to defino tho boundaries through Messrs. Jones and Spicer's properties. Tho funeral of the lato Miss Margaret Scanlon, youngest daughter of nn old and respected resident of Wellington, Mr. Patrick Scanloh, of Collogo-htreet, took place this morning at the Karon Cemetery, and was largely attended. At the meeting of the Seatoun Road Board to-day, Mr. F. Townsend in the chair, a letter wns read from Mr. Jolly asking to bo allowed to remove four feet of rock facing his property. The Board decided to del the work when it has a man to spare,- oi* allow Mr. Jolly to remove the rock himself. An account from Mr. Bennett for inspecting concrete wovk was ordered to' be sent to Mirarnar, Limited.
