NEW TEST OF WIRELESS.
Thunder Of Great Guns May Inter
fere with Accuracy of Teleg-
raphy.

New York.-It was said at the Brook
by the North Atlantic fleet in wireless
telegraphy Will be in the nature of OBJ
servations in the efficiency and accu-
racy of the wireless instruments when
all the guns are being fired. Observa-
tions made at Pensacola last. spring
showed that there is little to fear from
the effects of shock and jar of one gun,
but what is sought now is information
as to whether the same immunity will
be enjoyed when all guns are fired, as
in case of battle. There is some ap-
prehension that the instruments will not
survive this test of battle efficiency"
as the thunder and air vibration caused
by the firing of numerous big guns is
very great.
Much of the present work in expert
menting in wireless telegraphy has to
do only with a comparison of circum-
stances by means of wireless communi-
cations with the shore stations which
are in close touch with the naval OBJ
servatory. The change from this
'clocking" work, as it is called, to the
broader field of battle serviceability is
awaited with interest not only by those
who are directly engaged with the
wireless experiments, but also by the
officials of the navy department, who ex-
pect important conclusions will be de-
rived from the tests.
