THE USEFULNESS OF
WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
VIII Not Supplant Ordinary Method.
But Is Invaluable for Military and
Other Government Purposes.

/ WASHINGTON, May l1,-General Gree
7 ly today made the first authoritative
statement as to the progress made IN
wireless telegraphy under the auspices
Of the United States signal corps. The
important conclusion is reached BY Cen
eral Greely that the wireless system is
not likely to supplant the ordinary meth
cd of telegraphic Communication as the
results so far obtained have been uneer-
tain.
General Greely's statement says: since
the announcement OF the tests In space
telegraphy by Senior Marconi, two years
ago. the subject has been under consid
Grafton by the signal corps Of the army
and recently experiments have been be-
gun with the object OF thoroughly test
ing the value Of their means of com
munlcation for military and other govern
mental purposes.
That there is field OF usefulness for
space telegraphy is undoubted but that
1t will supplant TO material extent the
use OF wire for ordinary commercial
telegraphy Is not believed
Its value for connection between light
houses and llghtships at sea and to re-
place the ordinary flag methods in use
between naval vessels is should prove in
valuable, since no kind of weather. nor
fog, darkness nor storm avail to affect
It's use.
