Lehigh Valley Railroad, uses Brooks insulators

A New Telegraph Line.

ON the 5th inst. Mr. H. A. Clute, Supt. of Telegraph of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company, completed a through telegraph line from Waverley, N. Y., to Philadelphia, Pa., a distance of two hundred and fifty miles. The wire is insulated for the whole distance with Brooks' improved paraffine insulators, and, with a small Callaud battery at each end, it was worked through a heavy rain, and there was scarcely any perceptible escape on the whole length of the line. The wire is to be used for through railroad business.
