This is the only known surviving copy of the codebook created by Pulitzer and used by him to communicate with his top staff by cable and telegram as he traveled the globe. In the 5,000-entry book, Pulitzer developed a nomenclature for all the elements of his world: codes for politicians, rivals, business terms, amounts of money, himself and family members, and even the weather. He himself had a number of names, including "Andes" and "Marksman." Theodore Roosevelt was "Glutinous." The Republican Party was "Malaria." William Randolph Hearst's Journal was "Medusa." All replies had to include the word "semaphore," meaning, as defined in the volume: "I have read twice and fully, clearly, surely understand and acknowledge your cable. I will do my best after consideration and would certainly cable back and ask a question if I did not understand or felt uncertain."

Copper Cornerstone Box, October 1899.
When the World Building was set for demolition in 1955 to give better access to another great New York City monument, the Brooklyn Bridge, the cornerstone box could not be found. But during the wrecking process, it was struck by machinery and rescued. Most but not all of its contents came to Columbia to be added toThe WorldRecords. Missing from the group, according toThe World Its History & Its New Home, are: three gold coins; three silver coins; and the silver medal struck when The World circulation reached 250,000.
