Description:Excerpt from The Commercial Value of Wireless Telegraphic Communication: With the Andaman Nicobar Islands, Delivered at the Bengal Chamber of Commerce, on the 6th February 1900 The Chairman in opening the proceedings, spoke as follows: - Gentleman, - At various times mainly on the initiation of Sir Patrick Playfair, the Committee of the Chamber have had before them for consideration the important question of connecting the Andaman and Nicobar Islands with the mainland of India by telegraph. You are aware that it is in the neighbourhood of these islands that cyclones, which are so prevalent in the Bay of Bengal, have their origin. It is thought that, if the Meteorological Department were in telegraphic communication with these islands, they would be able to get more timely and more accurate information of the approach of cyclones, and thus be the means of averting some frightful disaster to shipping. The cost of making the connection is estimated, under the old system of laying cables, at a very large sum, and, while I have no doubt the Government of India are in entire sympathy with the proposal, the state of their finances during the last few years has precluded their undertaking the work. It seems to me a fortunate circumstance that Colonel Temple, the Chief Commissioner of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, should have devoted a portion of his well-earned leave in England to studying the Marconi system of telegraphing with special reference to its application to the connection between the Andamaus and India. I am sure we are deeply indebted to him for having accepted the invitation of the Committee to come here this afternoon and inform us upon this important subject. I have no doubt Colonel Temples address will be highly interesting, not only from a scientific point of view but from the point of view to which I have referred.
