WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
william A. Eddy Says That the Project
Is Feasible.


New York, Aug. 3.-William A. Eddy
says that his experiments in atmos-
pheric electricity for the purpose Of tel
egraphing without wires were begun by
him in July last at Bayonne, N. j.,
with two lines of kites supporting two
lines of copper wire separated by dis
tence Of several hundred feet.
Marconi of Italy has announced that
the power to telegraph without wires
depends upon the perpendicular projec-
ton of the wires at each station, and
that with separated wires projecting to
height of 100 feet he succeeded in tel
egraphing without wire connection for
distance of 12 miles.
Mr.. Eddy believes that with kite sup
ported wires messages can be sent from
New York to Chicago by means of three
or four intermediate kite stations, each
kite station having Its wire projected
to a height of 1900 or 1000 feet.

protest received by the board OF United

operation of the new tariff law comes
from Memphis which is officially known
as an immediate transportation" port
Sf entry. The protest is filed by Nor
'iss Bros. Of Memphis. and it relates to
/ single piece of marble statuary from
Earrara, which under the old law would
have~come in duty free.
The import arrived on the Sarnia July
IS and was shipped in bond to Memphis.
where final entry was made 1t was in
transit therefore when the new law be-
eame operative, but upon arrival at
Memphis, on July 26, was marked by
the collector for entry under the new
law.
The contention of Morriss Bros. Is
that the statuary reached this country
before the law was passed, but the
Memphis collector holds that a manda-
tory clause in the law compelled him to
levy duty on all dutiable goods pre-
viously entered without payment of
