Glace Bayns, October 1.-THE in

William Aarconi and his assistants
today. Mr. Marconi stated tonight
that more than 5000 words had been
transmitted between the station a-
Port Aorien six miles from here and
the Irish station.
Invitations to a large number of
guests were issued for 2 o'clock this
afternoon, but the world wide interest
ia the undertaking brought d food OF
messageS in the early morning and
the service was opened shortly after
day light. Among those present at
the opeai1g OF the new service were
representatives OF score or Brltlsh
and American newspapers.
II am entirely satisfied with the re-
suit" SAID Mr.. harconi ''everyth1ng
has worked splendidly: we are going
to operate a limited service for a time
but we have already handled from s.
900 to 10000 words today on account
of it being a special day and a large
number Of congratulatory and press
messages having been exchanged be-
tween London and New YORK
We did not transmit commercial or
private messages as a rule today as
we made il a sort of press day.
You cannot call it an inaugural or
opening. We had our real opening TWO
years ago when kilograms were passed

The inventor expressed absolute
confidence in the triumph achieved IN

the future of long distance wireless

men are also sick, of the continued At

charges are made against a railroad
the proper thing to do is 10 refrain
from publishing them until the party

tatives OF the press are present. As
such things are now ian the charges

Before 1t Was definitely announced

sides were somewhat startled by the
suggestion that the transfer books OF

Hamburg, October 12-The old pri-

that they were in the neighbOrhood

ProiltAkle Bordeaux Industry
Adaptation

oeAsal d. 1. Murphy makes the
following report from Bordeaux on
the French peanut OIL industry for
the fnrtheraRce of that line Of man
ufactHre In the United States:
In a recent article In western
newspaper on the growing OF peanuts
it was stated that the annual value
Of the peanut crop in Virginia. North
Carolina, and Tennessee was be-
tweea Ss,e98,o00 and t10.000.000.
How correct this statement may be
I have NO means OF determining. but
10 gave me the idea that a very prof
liable Industry might be established
in the manufacture OF archide oil,
IL such an Industry is not already
in existence in the states mention
ed.
Arachide Oil, when clarified and
fresh, is preferred TO the best olive
oil for table use by many people in
thi. part of France.
In Bordeaux the sale Of archide
oil exceed that OF any other oils
in fact they are almost as large as
the sales OF all others combined. Oy-
er 5oo0e tons Of peanuts are brought
to this port every year from the
French possessions In Africa, the ay-
erage annual value of the peanut
Cor arachide) oil manufactured In
this city being over s2,OOO,000.
Not only IS archide oil a most eI-
cellent table oil, palatable. nutrious.
healthful, and very much cheaper
than olive oil, but IL Is employed
almost exclusively in the manufac-
ture OF a high class compound lard.
For cooking sardines before packing
in olive oil. am told that IL Is un-
surpassed.
The best quality Of arachide oil
is selilag Wholesale at about 80 or
80 cents per gallon at thi" time and
lower grades at from 50 10 %
cents.
The process of manufacturing the
oil is simple. the nuts being pressed
in the same kind OF presses as used
for cotton seed.
The oil is clarified in the same
manner as olive oil, e. by altering
through layers of carded cotton, the
quality depending largely upon the
number OF offerings and the de-
gree of Qualification attained. The
mediuu is pressed into cakes, max
ing an excellent. nutrious food for
cattle.
This cake is selling from Is To 18
francs Der 100 kilos or from $2.9O
to 33.47 for every 22o pounds.
