night recorded a new and remarkable
achievement which promises to go far
toward solving the problem of direct
wire between this port and Honolulu.

Gated on Mare island, held communi-
cation with the cruiser Chicago at a
distance Of 40 miles to the northward,
despite the fact Of the intervening coast
range. The messages received here
were perfectly clear and It was hoped
to continue them until late hour this
morning.
The Chicago left San Francisco at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon. As she
passed through the Golden Gate Opera
tor Stewart who is in charge of the
government island station, entered into
communication with her. 1t was agreed
that messages would be exchanged as
long as possible North coast sending
was practically a new experiment, as
heretofore most of the wireless work
has been done to the southwark. 1t
