Wilson Lets Long know

The latest proposition has been broached
by the Department OF Agriculture. Secre-
tary Wilson hearing that the navy was
casting about for a servioeable system Of
telegraphv. has written Admiral Bradford
TO notify him that the Agricultural depart
ment has been experimenting for some time
with wireless telegraphy. and has attained
remarkable results. His experts assert
with the greatest positiveness that they
have evolved a system radically different
from Marconrs. and Of far greater et-
iciency.
For obvious rea sons the details Of the
process are kept secret. but u is probable
that within a short time a practical eA-
hibition will be made on board OF naval
vessel The bureau OF equipment for
tunately has a considerable Appropriation
made in a lump sum at its disposal TO
cover the expenses of installing all kind 5
Of electrical appliances aside from those
connected with the mechanical departme Mt
Of the ship and when Secretary Long gives
the order a part OF this will be spent in
tryirg Secretary Wilson's experts device.
The outcome will be watched with the
greatest interest by all naval officers. es-
pecially in view Of the announcement that
not only Great Britain. but Germany and
the other European maritime powers have
already ordered the Installation OF wireless
plants in their navies.

He reports that the logs are very

that it will in all probability take

Of the great Inland Empire, which fact
alone will serve to attract mining men
