graphy in reporting every move of the con
testing yachts during the international
races by which thousands were enabled TO
learn from the bulletins posted on the win
dows of the newspapers every turn made
by the Columbia and the Shamrock and
also to see positively the name Of the win
ming boat only a few minutes after it had
crossed the line, has been referred to by the
SUNDAY GLOBE and IL has attracted the at
tentiou of the public to the uses of the new
means of communication. Another event
was the receiving and sending of messages
over 27o miles without wires from the eN-
pertinent station at Galilee N. j., TO Nam
ucket, Mass.
On the closing day of the yacht contest
the American Company sent out Io} bull
letns reporting the various stages of the
rum from start TO finish. of which ninety
eight were published The news that
Columbia wius' was posted only two
minutes after the yachts crossed the line,
showing the rapidity of the wireless means
of communication and its utility for mariue
purposes.
Despite the European system which at
tempted to report the yacht race and the
the wireless methods with interference de-
vices, it was demonstrated that the Amer
lean system was the only one which was
not interfered with, but reported every mes
sage correctly, while the others could not
get reports to the shore

the wireless telegraph bulletins was such as
to win encomiums Of the highest praise and
1aa1trt..

lee, covering in all distance of about 100
miles, and showing how easily vessel in
distress equipped with wireless telegraphic
instruments, can communicate not only with
the life-saving station miles away but also
that the electro.etheric impulses can be re-
ceived by distant vessel invisible to the
eye or unperceivable by marine glasses, bu
by wireless communications assistance
could be quickly secured
