Submarine Telegraph Feasibility Report Prompts Debate
A lengthy 1854 dispatch reviews Lieut Breeman’s deep sea soundings from Newfoundland to Ireland. It notes a regular plateau at 1500 to 2000 fathoms, suitable for laying magnetic telegraph wires. The piece argues the Atlantic line could be secure from ice to currents, with no bottom disturbance, urging a national prize and further study.
