Air Line Messages Intended to Take

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Nov S.-The new wire
less telegraph stations at Fairbanks and
Circle City, Alaska, are ready for opera
ton, according to advices just receiver
by Brig. Gen. Allen, chief signal officer
of the army. The stations are 140 miles
apart and are designed to have radius
of about $50 miles.
Stations are planned at various points
from Nome to Cape Flattery and before
a year has elapsed the signal corps ex-
pect to have in operation wireless connec-
ton from Bering straits to Puget sound.
This is intended to supplement the VAL
dez-Sitka cable and the land telegraph
lines, which in the severe seasons are
difficult to keep in working order. There
are wireless stations in operation at Nome
and st. Michael, a distance OF lUi miles
across Norton sound.
The station at Nome will be enlarged
and a station at Fort Gibbons and an
other station will be constructed at Valdez
by the navy department, and these Will
be operated with naval wireless stations
at Sitka and Cape Flattery.
1t Is likely that stations will be coll
structed at Eagle City and Gulkana IN
order to replace land lines between. those
two points which traverse the roughe5t
country of Alaska. The wireless system
between Nome and st. Michael has been
operated without a break during the past
year and has been used for commercial
business These stations have demon
strated the fact that the wirelss system
tor Alaska is far more feasible for the
transaction of commercial business than
are the land lines.

CITY MAY USE DUCTS IN
SUNSET COMPANY'S CONDUiTS

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Nov. S.-As a concilatory
measure to the city the Sunset Telephone
company, through General Manager Brad
ley, today notified Mayor Farley that all
objections to the municipality using por-
tion of it's conduits for electric light wires
have been withdrawn.
Some time ago when the city proposed
to assess special tax on each pole main
tained by the Sunset company, Manager
Bradley came here and held conference
with Mayor Farley and other city officials
at which it was suggested that the pole
tax might be withdrawn in consideration
for concessions, one of which was the use
of the company's conduits on Colorado
street and Fair Oaks averue for feed
wires from the municipal light
Manager Bradley thought the fire un-
derwriters would object to such an ar
rangement, but promised an agreement In
case the underwriters acted favorably.
Toby the information came that all OBJ
jections are waived. The city not only
gets the use of two ducts in each of the
conduits, but also is granted the free use
of two cross arms where needed or the

With these words Judge Petit, sitting

foundation for work for reform along
this line.
The judge had before him several little
boys whose minds had been poisoned by

Five charges of burglary rest against

hood.
Skeleton keys and revolvers were found
in their possession, and in addition to the
sweets they confessed robbing houses of
property valued at $50 within the last
