[D8338ZBF], Letter from Edison Electric Light Co Ltd, Arnold Henry White to Edward Hibberd Johnson, August 9th, 1883

Editor's Notes

Yours of 28th rcd. Sockets on "Oregon" of latest pattern; let us know if you see any problems on the ship in NY. Discusses switches on Oregon. Automatic regulator placed in the House of Commons split and cracked from the great heat. Oregon dynamo room will be hotter. Status report of Criterion theater. Mr. Bayley? will prepare memorandum for conduct of ship business. No objection to the continental Co "getting the prestige of the ships belonging to their nationality provided we get the profit if we do the work and obtain the business." Parliamentary committee biz: "after a great fight we are through the house of commmons and come on before the house of lords tonight. We have parted with a strip of St James parish to the Telegraph Constr Co, and they've dropped their opposition in House of Lords. Heard privately that TAE's exptl 600 light machine broke down completely. Negotiations with Swan now in abeyance; TAE's excellent letter of 27th being considered by boards.
