graph to the Issuing Postmaster for full particulars of the Money Order Telegram, including the code word. If the particulars received from the Issuing Office agree with the Order as presented, the service telegrams may be treated as a Second Advice, and payment made accordingly. In such cases a memorandum on Form Acct. No. 77 should be placed among the Advices of Unpaid Orders, and, should the original Advice come to hand subsequently, the memorandum, together with the Advice, should be forwarded to the Controller.

  1. The particulars of the issue of a Second or Duplicate Advice must invariably be noted on the back of the application for the Order (Form Acct. No. 70) in the space provided for the purpose.

Particulars to be noted on back of application.

ALTERATION IN THE NAME OF THE PAYEE OR REMITTER—CORRECTED ADVICES.

  1. If the remitter of an Order shall personally apply for an alteration of the name of the payee or remitter thereof, the Postmaster must require him to fill up one of the forms (Acct. No. 84) and affix thereto in stamps a fee equal to the Inland rate of commission on the Order, whether payable within the Colony or beyond. Applications by letter may also be attended to, provided the necessary commission in postage-stamps is enclosed, the application is signed by the remitter, and the correct particulars of the Order are given. The Postmaster must then note the correction on the requisition (Form Acct. No. 70) and act as follows:—

(a.) If payable in New Zealand, one of the Advice forms headed “Corrected Advice” must be filled up and despatched to the Paying Office, and the application (Form Acct. No. 84), after being noted “Corrected Advice issued,” must be forwarded to the Controller. (For Money Order Telegrams, see Rule No. 63.)

(b.) If payable outside New Zealand, the application should be forwarded direct to the Controller, who will arrange payment as desired by the applicant.

“Corrected” Advices may be issued upon the application of the remitter.

Corrected Advices: How disposed of.

INLAND MONEY ORDER TELEGRAMS.

  1. Money Orders for transmission by telegraph may be issued for payment at Money Order Offices in New Zealand which are also Telegraph Offices. The maximum amount for which a single Order may be issued is £40. (For rates of commission, see Postal Guide.)
