TELEGRAPH CHARGES.
(BY telegraph.—OWN correspondent) Auckland, Lust Night. Mr Ward, Postmaster-Genera!, in reply to an Auckland merchant who wired to him regretting that he had seen fit to change the recent regulations as to the charge for telegraphic messages, telegraph? that the published account of his interview with Hon. Reynolds was incorrect. What he said was that he would favourably consider the question of allowing the present number of words in the body of the message, the address and the signature to be counted together, the 18 words to cost one ■hilling, and the same number of words in delayed messages to cost sixpence.
