 characters representing said character-indicating devices, selecting means coöperative with said components, and means for shifting a plurality of said components out of position.

43. A receiving telegraph instrument comprising a plurality of character-indicating devices and also a translating receiver controlling said devices selectively in accordance with the combinations of receiver-influencing signals representing their respective code characters, said receiver embodying the following elements, viz.:character-selecting components corresponding to electrical signal components of three or more different values, and means for shifting one or more of said components out of position.

44. A receiving telegraph instrument comprising a plurality of character-indicating devices and also a translating receiver controlling said devices selectively in accordance with the combinations of receiver influencing signals representing their respective code characters, said receiver embodying the following elements, viz.&mdash;character-selecting components corresponding to electrical signal components of three or more different values, selecting means controlled by signal components of two values and controlling said components, and means controlled by a signal component of greater value for shifting one of said components out of action.

45. A receiving telegraph instrument comprising a plurality of character-indicating devices and also a translating receiver controlling said devices selectively in accordance with the combinations of receiver-influencing signals representing their respective code characters, said receiver embodying the following elements, viz.&mdash;character-selecting components corresponding to electrical signal components of three or more different values, selecting means controlled by signal components of two values and controlling said components, and means controlled by different signal components of greater values for shifting a plurality of said components out of action.

46. In a printing telegraph receiver, the combination with a rotary member movable in the direction of its axis and also rotatable about said axis, of a pair of electrical controlling means for said rotary member each controlled directly by dot and dash impulses transmitted to said receiver, one of said controlling means including means for adjusting said rotary member in one of said directions by a step-by-step action, and the other of said controlling means including means for moving said rotary member in the other of said directions.

Signed at New York, in the county, of New York, and State of New York, this 24th day of August, A. D. 1904.
