Cmpana

New York, Oct 30.-Two marvellous
tests Of the Marconi system Of WIRE
less telegraphy were disclosed when
the Cunarder Campania arrived. One
Of them seemed almost magical to
the voyagers. 1t was nothing less than
the dispatch of a message from Cam.
pania passenger to Philadelphia by way
Of Ireland twenty-four hours ahead OF
the arrival of the Campania here.
This was accomplished by sending
the message to the Campania's sister
ship Lucania, bound In an opposite
direction when the latter was ITO miles
distant. The two vessels were full
LOO miles off the Irish coast at the
time. The Lueania having less dis
tance to traverse, waited the message
to the wireless instrument at Crook
Haven when she reached the radius
or electrical communication, and 1t was
then sent to Philadelphia by cable,
The man who received 1t In the Qua

This message the Lucania sent to the

when the Lucania receiver began to
click. The operator wrote down q
message from man in Paris, who
was anxious to meet one of the Lucan-
las voyagers.
The telegraph communication be-
tween Lucania and Campania at sea
was kept up without interruption from
1920 D. III. when the current was es-
tablished, until 6:25 a. IN. of the oath,
an interval Of more than eight hours.
All this time the wind and sea were
both too high to make deck prone
nading pleasant for the passengers.
Every officer on the Campania, from
Captain Walker down, was elated at
the great success of this test Of the
wireless system. They regarded it
as conclusive proof of the value of
communication at sea.
