From the st. Paul Dispatch (rep.).

While it is not certain that two-thirds of
the senators will vote for the treaty there
is TO kind of doubt about the result in
case an extra session is called to deal with
the matter. This consideration ought to
induce the senators in opposition to con-
sent to ratification, since their refusal to
agree can result in nothing more than a
delay in securing peace.

1t is positively necessary to have the
treaty ratified in order that we may have
our status in the islands fully determined.

the war put upon record. 1t is in the inter-

opposition to the treaty should end

From the Providence Journal tind)
If the democrats try to make the ratifi-

tiOn-and there is danger OF it-they will
give their party bow from which il will
take years to recover. If Senators Hoar

Spain gives and 10 leave to the American

From the New York Commercial Advertiser (repJ
Now the Senate is confronted with these
real questions involved in the treaty: Shall

WIRELESS THEGaAPHY
Continued from First Page.S

stations has been kept up by the trained
men of the regular signal corps, and
inns mas greatly facilitated the work
OF experimenting. Signals, letters and
words have been transmitted and re-
ceived between these stations, but the
great uelcacy and constant adjustment
required in the present receiver have
made the transmission OF regular mes
sages as yet unreliable and uncertain.
The presence of large buildings and
masses OF iron and metal. necessarily
present in cities. make such places I'M
desirable for carrying on experiments
OF inns character. The distance over
when signals may be transmitted by
Il given apparatus is n function of the
helSht OF the verticar wire used at
either end. and this has naturally sug-
Sested the use of small gas balloons.
such as have already been used for sig
MAJ ana other purposes by the signal
corps. n supply of these balloons has
already been obtained and will be used
Tor this purpose in the near future.
Ihat there is field OF usefulness for
space telegraphy Is undoubted but that
1t will supplant to u material extent the
use OF wire for ordinary commercial
telegraph Is not believed. It's value for
connection between lighthouses and
hGht ships and the shore Mt points
where eaoies cannot now be perma-
nently maintained, will be great.
For signalling between ships at sea
and 10 replace ordinary flag methods in
use between naval vessels it should
prove invaluable, since no kind of
weather neither fog, darkness nor
storm avail to effect it's use.
The use OF metal reiectors to aug
ment ana direct the radiation to par
ticular points has already met with
partial success. and should be thor
oushly investigated. At present the ra-
diation proceeds from the transmitter
in all directions and the same message
can be received at any point within
the proper radius at which n receiver
Is placed. y satisfactory directing ra-
dius and Il receiver OF the proper cleo
trical capacity, or, in other words, tun-
ed to the vibrations of the particular
transmtter would make a great .ad-
vance IN space tclesraphy and do much
toward the extension OF it's field OF
practical usefulness.
While secrecy of transmission is
among the probabilities. the present
stage of experiment does not justify Its
positive prediction"
