II see no reason why it cannot be adjusted
so finely that an operator in Chicago may

The machine will be a great protection
to dealers in stocks and grain. 1t will be
impossible to tap a wire and take of re-.
ports, unless the persons who propose to
do the work have a complete receiver. and
my receivers are so much more expensive
than those used in ordinary telegraphy that
1t is not likely that much wire tapping will
go on under the new system.
Business men who use the wires to any
great extent can have their confidential

Omahn-Kansns city Wire.
In the test made yesterday II was the
intention to use a 1000 mile wire but a
rush Of business compelled the use OF the
Omaha Kansas City loop, comprising 434
miles of wire Added to this was 100 miles of
resistance, making a total of 554 miles.
The test was satisfactory. current OF
twenty-four volts was used at first, but
was increased to eighty-hve volts when
messages were sent at full speed. The
significance of this lies in the fact that
the telegraph company uses 170 volts on
the Kansas City line alone the test thus

operated with less than half the power re-
quired by the old-style telegraph.
The Western Union operators were

RETIRE WITH HIGHER RANKS
Army Reorganization Bill Affects Three
Officers Now in 0mshs.
ADVANCEMENT ALL ALONG THE LINE
Younger Officers viii step Jp TO Take
the Places of Those Retired
Measure Meets with InauaI-
i6ed Approval.

The passage of the army reorganization
bill by the senate has much interest for
three of the officers stationed at the head
quarters of the Department of the Mis-
souri,, Colonels Hathaway and Kimball and
Major Wilson. The bill. it is understood
at headquarters, carries with it a provision
whereby officers who served in the civil
war and have continued In the service may
retire at a grade In advance Of the one
they hold at the time OF retirement.
The three officers named are the only ones
at headquarters to be affected OF these
Colonel Kimball surgeon general OF the
department is the senior, having about one
year to serve before he will be retired
under the age limitation. Colonels Kim
ball and Hathaway rank as lieutenant col
onels.
Comparatively Few Concerned.
In the entire army there are but 26s Off
GERS affected by the provisions of the law.
Many Of these are colonels who will be
permitted to retire with the rank of brig
adler general, making an opportunity for
the advancement of the lieutenant colonels
to the higher grade and giving them an
opportunity to follow in the wake of their
predecessors. 1t is stated on good authority
that as soon as the retirement of higher
officers will permit the elevation of the
officers at these headquarters to a higher
grade they will take advantage of the pro-
visions of the law.
Younger officers in the service look with
pleasure upon the passage of this pro-
vision. During the time from the close
of the civil war to the outbreak of the wal
with Spain promotions were slow, but the
latter event made them more rapid. Tho
younger set of officers have had a taste ol
rapid advancement and do not like the idea
OF settling down to the slow advancements
OF the regular service. The retirement oi
these 200 officers will make places to b,
filed and will result in promotions all alons
the line. For this reason every officer il
the army favors the plan, and everyone
interested says that it will in many casc'
improve the service by putting younge,
and more active officers in places now helC
by men who should be given an opportunit,
Of retiring with 'he consideration due theii

SHOWS TELEGRAPH MACHINE
Inventor Gives Public Test OF His
New Apparatus In
Omaha.


The telegraph operator of the future may
be any person who can use a typewriter, "
the Pearne printing telegraph machine does
what is claimed for it.. The exhibition of
the machine given yesterday in the Offices
of the Western Union Telegraph company
proved that the inventor has his machine
so nearly perfected that it will soon be on
.he market
To describe the apparatus in a few words
the sender consists of the keyboard of a
typewriter and the receiver Is typewriter,
minus the keyboard. The keys OF the re-
cever are connected with batteries which
transmit current which passes through a
seecter and switch and Is so regulated
that when 1t reaches the receiver it prints
the letters which ore struck by the
operator.
In the opinion of the inventor the new
system will not reduce the number of oper-
ators employed by telegraph companies, but
will increase the amount of business and
make the work of the employees much easier
Frank u. Pearne. the inventor Of the new
machine, H. scarcely % years old. For
several years he was employed by the Iowa
Telephone company as superintendent of
construction ana made his headquarters in
Davenport. During the last eighteen
months he has spent most of his time In
