Wireless Method

The marvels Of wireless telegraphy
are great enough to render a recent
use OF the system nut sufficiently won
derful to be extraordinary, perhaps,
yet the incident reported Ivy Cham

the imagination.
Two Iunnrd liners. the Lucania and
the Csmpania. we're crossing the At

Such a conversation carried on be-

an impressive illustration of what
