The factory was built in 1893, but production of TNT began in September 1915.
The method used was invented by F. A. Freeth;
another plant, at Gadbrook, was built in 1916; in
1896 'The Venesta Syndicate' was formed for the tea-chests, and in 1906
Venesta Ltd. used the southernmost portion of Napier Yard, as manufacturer
of wood and metal cases, boxes and barrels.

Originally Prussian, Abraham Louis Breguet began his career as a watchmaker but also a physicist.
His son Louis-Antoine Breguet. His ancestry was French but his family were Protestants so they fled to Switzerland after Edict of Nantes in 1685. He met Abraham-Louis Perrelet and Xavier Gide.
In 1795 Breguet returned to Paris. Circa 1807 Breguet brought in his son, Louis-Antoine (born 1776) as a business partner, and from this point the firm became known as Breguet et Fils. He sent his son to London to study with the great English chronometer maker,
John Arnold.
Abraham-Louis Breguet died in 1823 and it was carried on by Louis-Antoine to 1833 (he died in 1858), and after the business continued under Abraham-Louis' grandson Louis François Clément Breguet born on 22 Dec. 1804
in Paris.
Louis Francois Clement Breguet work in the early days of
telegraphy, educated in Switzerland.
Louis François Clément Breguet
was a French physicist, "1835 and 1840 he standardized the company product line of watches, ... and diversified into scientific instruments, electrical devices, recording instruments, an electric thermometer, telegraph instruments and electrically synchronized clocks
(Masson, Antoine Philibert and Louis Breguet in 1841 ed. 'Memoire sur l'induction', Annales de chimie et de physique, Paris, 4 (3), p. 129-152; Masson describes the toothed wheels that functioned as an interrupter).
With
Alphonse Foy, in 1842 he developed an electrical needle telegraph to replace the optical telegraph system ... and a later step-by-step telegraph system in 1847 ...
manufactured the rotating mirror Fizeau-Foucault apparatus ... and 'spark coil'
(archaically known as an inductorium or Ruhmkorff coil after Heinrich Ruhmkorff)
is a type of electrical transformer used to produce high-voltage pulses ... were widely used in
x-ray machines, spark-gap radio transmitters, arc lighting and quack medical electrotherapy devices from the 1880s to the 1920s ... lighting Geissler tubes ... Tesla coils...".
Alphonse Foy informed Morse that his system would not be accepted in France. He also requested Louis Francois Breguet (b. 1804), grandson of Abraham Louis Breguet to produce an electrical telegraph with needles in France.
The resulting Breguet - Foy telegraph used two needles.
It was first tried in 1842.
In 1842 tests were made with optical telegraph at night.
In 1845 test of electrical telegraph was made along the railway route, the Breguet two - needle telegraph, too.
As a result the Breguet equipment was installed in 1845 on the Paris-Rouen route.
Breguet replaced his telegraph also called the French telegraph, which was standard
equipment on French railways and L. Breguet in 1851 had in Paris a fourth floor added to his
building for this work.
Breguet cooperated also with Chambrier, V. Foy, the French government (dial telegraph in 1845), the
Telegraph Company in 1863 (electric telegraph - Breguet System, late 19th century),
in Britain in the 1860s and 1870s with Wood, Edward George b. in Clerkenwell, Islington, January 1812,
d. 1896 from Cheapside, City of London, who was friend of Thomas Cooper, the Chartist (galvanic telegraph,
Crossley's Telegraph in Halifax), d'Arlincourt (transmitter);
Breguet patented a Telegraph Communicator - Breguet Alphabetical Type, circa 1870; manufactured
the telephone transmitter (Boudet, Laborde, Breguet, Ader, Du Moncel, and others) and
telephone receivers (Bell, Breguet, and others). Note: Winnie Buller b. in Bacton, Norfolk,
receives pilot's license from Breguet School at Douia, France.
In Russia, St Petersburg - Moscow electrical telegraph line
was established as the first; in 1853 a line to Kronstadt, 1854 to Warsaw. The
Russian state telegraph network of 11000 km was constructed by Siemens
-
Carl Siemens
- in the period 1853 - 1855.
1863 to Tbilisi in Georgia upon the initiative of Grigola Orbeliani, d. 1883. 1860 to Sweden from Russia.
"...The first electromagnetic telegraph created a Russian scientist Paul L. Schilling in 1832. ... Paul Schilling also developed the original code in which each letter of the alphabet corresponded to a specific combination of symbols that might appear with black and white circles on the telegraph ...
the electromagnetic telegraph was built in Germany - Carl Gauss and Wilhelm Weber (1833), in the UK - Cooke and Wheatstone (1837), and the U.S. patented electromagnetic telegraph S. Morse in 1837. ... In Russia, the P. L. Schilling continued B. Jacobi, built in 1839 writer telegraph...".
In 1874, Pärnu - Kuressaare telegraph line was building.
At first the two times a week between Kuressaare and Pärnu were transported mail.
Telegraph to continent was set up in 1875.
The first line at Hiiumaa Island was built by the Government of the Navy, ca 1854,
this service was expensive and slown.
The big change in the transmission of messages in the history came when it started to use electric telegraph by
a German physician Samuel Thomas von Sommer; it have not found practical use;
In Tallinn, the Russian scientist, electronic technician, Schilling in 1832
constructed an electromagnet powered telegraph; 1837, Cooke and Wheatstone patented telegraph
which was introduced in Paddington; 1837 was designed by American Samuel Morse an electromagnetic telegraph,
which became the forward points, had
a paper tape machine. By 'wiki.wifi.ee/index.php/Telegraaf'.
Estonia can the beginning of the development of telecommunications in 1855
when the first telegraph from Petersburg via Narva to Tallinn was put to work, with the
Morse telegraph device; in 1857 Tallinn - Pärnu to Riga;
Telegraph opened in Pärnu to Haapsalu with a branch line in 1859 to Tallinn;
1863 was built telegraph Tartu - Valga to Riga; 1864 Tartu - Narva - Johvi; 1866
Rakvere was post office; 1867 Pärnu - Viljandi telegraph; in 1872 Vorru;
1875 Pärnu - Kuressaare; 1883 between Tallinn and Pärnu new line linking the Märjamaal open telegraph;
1900 in Pärnu a wide range telegraph; all telegraph were used Morse-type telegraph devices and
Hughes high-speed type; the longest telegraph cable was built in 1898 between Pärnu and
Kihnu, Saarema Island; 1914 the First World War, continued development of the telegraph, but
in the meantime begun to evolve rapidly new phone. 1875, the final decision on the issue of Saaremaa telegraph,
taking Pärnu, Kuressaare, Virtsu, Kärdla telegraph line; 1875,
G. Schmidt, managing Pärnu - Kuressaare route building intermediate stations Lihulas, Virtsus,
Vahtna, Illikulaiu; Kuressaare and Pärnu base stations were set up in 1875.
1906, the city telephone network was a state monopoly, to set the phone on the island port of
Roomassaare - Oskar Kesk. 1908, in Saaremaa, Julius Sander,
chaired the meeting where it was decided to install telephones in rural houses. The Roomassaare Port
had the first electric power plant in 1912.
Electrical Power Base in Estonia started in 1882, when the Tallinn F. Wiegandi factory (later Ilmarine)
and the Narva Kreenholm Factory set up the first generator lighting;
1885 Drümpelmanni metal factory in Tallinn and mentioned Kreenholm (Dvigatel wagon factory in Tallinn);
1893 started work of two generators with a total capacity of approximately 200 kW in a cement factory in Kunda;
The first public power station founded in 1907 in Pärnu, the power was 100 kW, it operated a steam engine;
on the right bank of the Pärnu River power plant has not survived, but is still the building,
which was built and opened in the 1911; this was followed by Tartu, Viljandi, Valga and Voru city.
The Pärnu city council decided to build the plant on 16 February 1907;
building itself was built by the city by the total cost of 65,000 rubles.
In early June began to pull the power lines, and on 20 October 1907 began producing electricity in Pärnu;
city street had 69 light bulb, thus it was at the forefront of the whole empire;
as early as in 1908 were built power plant additions (see on my grandfather Jerzy Konstantynowicz / Marian Stankiewicz / Marian Konstantinovich in Parnu 1908/1909 to 1912): batteries provided power during peak periods;
electric lights brighten the beach and on 29 September 1910 the council decided to build a new power plant
(completed in autumn 1911); as early as in 1912 in Pärnu electric street lighting had bulbs
to 355, before the war, 425. It used for heating the wood chips and milled peat.
Estonian electrical networks, of Pärnu, is very interesting, the power station
was constructed with two subsea cables through the Pärnu River, as the city's street lighting network was
located on one side of the river, and the other side was the power plant.

Paul L. Schilling / Baron Pavel L'vovitch von Schilling / Schilling von Kannstadt / Schilling von Cannstatt b.
1786 in Tallinn and died 1837 in St. Petersburg, diplomat, electrical engineer and inventor, the Baltic German origin, who built a pioneering electrical telegraph.
Sir Charles Wheatstone b. 1802, an English scientist and inventor: the stereoscope Playfair cipher for an encryption technique ("...it was used by the militaries of several nations through at least World War I, and is known to have been used during World War II by British intelligence services. It was initially resistant to cryptanalysis...", acc. to Marks, Leo, Between Silk and Cyanide. New York 1998), Wheatstone bridge, telegraph; in 1835 he lectured on the system of Baron Schilling, and the five-needle telegraph was similar to that of Schilling; the Breguet telegraph was similar in many ways to the Wheatstone model. It was simply built and adhered to basic engineering principles.
In 1917, after Russian revolution, cryptographers took the counterrevolution side.
Soviet Government used both tsar and revolutionary ciphers. In 1921, a special department was founded by the
government, for exploitation of ciphers. Andrei Andreevich Markov gave a classification of ciphers which do not propagate distortions.
Aleksandr Osipovich Gelfond investigated the complexity of the discrete logarithm problem.
Andrei Nikolaevich Kolmogorov (1903‑1987), graduated of the Lomonosov Moscow State University in 1925, acc. to
Valentin A. Nosov. By 1860 large codes were in common use for diplomatic communications, and cipher systems
had become a rarity for this application. The invention of telegraph and radio pushed forward the development of
cryptographic protection of telecommunications, acc. to https://www.cryptochallenge.com/home/history.
The British scientist Sir Charles Wheatstone b. 1802, developed the Playfair Code, a table system that was easy
to use. Friedrich W. Kasiski developed a cryptanalysis method in 1863.
In 1883, the French teacher and writer Auguste Kerckhoffs set forth six basic requirements of cryptography.
He formulated procedures for long-term diplomatic codes.
In 1917, the Americans formed the cryptographic organization MI-8, with Herbert Osborne Yardley as the director.
The ADFGVX system was put into service by the Germans near the end of World War One. This was a cipher
which performed a substitution, fractionation and then transposition of the letter fractions.
It was broken by the French cryptanalyst, Lieutenant Georges Painvin.
Acc. to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I_cryptography, "Ernst Fetterlein was in the Tzarist
Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 1896, and solved German, Austrian and British codes.
He was eventually made chief cryptographer. ... 1917 he fled to Britain, and was recruited to Room 40 in June 1918
to work on Austrian, Bolshevik, and Georgian codes. The Russians used an overly complicated version of
the Vigenere Cipher... The French Army employed Georges Painvin, and Etienne Bazeries..., on German ciphers...".
"General Bonch-Bruyevich was close to leading generals who, in 1917, were instrumental in engineering
the abdication of the Tsar. Certainly influenced by his Bolshevik brother, he
contributed much to the poor military planning. Some of the spies who operated around
the Minister of War (who himself may have been maneuvered by the Germans) later participated
in revolutionizing and, in a concealed fashion, in the German operation with Lenin. ...
Some of the salient events are described by W. K. Korostowetz, Lenin im Hause der ...
(Berlin: Kulturpolitik, 1928), esp. Chapters VII and VIII:
and Mikhail D. Bonch-Bruyevich, Petrograd, Erinnerungen eines Generals
(Berlin: Verlag des Ministeriums fur nationale Verteidigung, 1959), Ch. 5-9.
W. K. Korostowetz / Korostowiec / Korostowetz was an official of the Petrograd Foreign Office and specialized in communications intelligence.
He was related to many high-ranking officials and aristocrats, and his information is, on the whole, dependable.
General Bonch-Bruyevich, brother of Lenin's comrade,
had many counter-intelligence assignments. A liberal during the war, he later joined the Bolsheviks and became something like the premier soldier of the Red army. The information by the two authors is largely corroborative".
