TO BE AN ELECTRICAL AGE.
Prof. SIaby of Berlin Predicts Re-
markabIe Things for His Multi
pIex Wireless TeIegraphy.

Berlin, Jan. SO.-Prof. A. Slaby of the
Berlin Technische Hochschuie, in the
course Of a remarkable interview on 1.-THE
Coming Electrical Revolution" which is
to appear in the forthcoming number of
new technical periodical, asserts that
his recent invention, multiplex wireless
telegraphy, will produce a very great
transformation in existing methods. 1t
will be possible. he declares, to apply the
principle to submarine cables in such a
way as to send hundreds and even thous-
ands of messages simultaneously on the
same wire, thus enormously cheapening
rates
Prof. Slaby believes that the problem
of direct production of electricity from
coal will be solved. Germany, he pre-
diets, will be the foremost nation of the
twentieth century in technical production,
and electricity will be the poor mans
source of power and light.

INSTRUCTIONS TO CONGER.
The State Department Adopts a
Lenient Attitude.

Washington, Jan. S0.-The Department
of State has now cabled to Mr.. Conger
very precise and detailed instructions for
his guidance in treating of the question
of indemnity. The ministers have reach
ed finally this important topic, which was
one of two or three that the State De-
partment earnestly desiredeto have dealt
with by other agencies, and at another
capital than Pekin.
Realizing that it is easily possible to
destroy the Chinese government and
bring about the partition of the empire,
which all Powers express themselves as
desirous of preventing, by, an ill-judged
effort to force terms as to Indemnity, the
State Department, it is believed, has
adopted a lenient attitude, and will lose
no opportunity to influence other Pow
ers accordingly.
