Then in the 1860s, engineers built telegraph cables, or large wires, under the oceans. Newspapers could report international news very quickly. A good example of this happened  in August 1883, when a volcano on the Indonesian island of Krakatoa erupted. A telegraph operator on the island sent out news of this natural disaster. Four hours later, a U.S. newspaper printed the news story about Krakatoa. This was the first time news from a different country was published the same day it happened.
