\nDear Sir:-
\nReferring to your letters of 28th and 30th instant, in regard to parties in Paris having cabled me direct, requesting information concerning the Sims-Edison torpedo, I beg to say that I received a cablegram from Mr. A. Vernes of the Paris Edison Company, asking me to wire “If Sims Torpedo successful specially regarding speed,” in reply to which I to-day sent the following cablegram:
\n
\n
\n“Official speed nineteen two-tenth miles per hour. I consider it a very successful and practical machine. I think twenty-five miles can be attained by some changes. EDISON.”
\n
\n
\nYours very truly,
\nTho. A.
