“TELETYPE” INVENTED
CHAIN OF NEWSPAPERS SERVED AN AMERICAN SYSTEM United r.A.—-Uy Telegraph—Copyright NEW YORK, Sunday. Setting type by telegraph in a series of distant newspaper offices, by the operation of a machine in a central office, has been accomplished during the paat month on newspapers served by the news wire of the Westchester County. This is the first practical teletype setter. It eliminates the telegraph operator and handling in the receiving newspaper office by sub-editors and compositors. It sets type automatically. An item may be cut or edited to a limited degree at the receiving end; but if the maximum speed is desired the message may not be intercepted.
