WIRELESS TELEPHONE
IS NOW A SUCCESS
VOICES HEARD AT A DISTANCE
OF TWENTY-FIVE MILES BY
GERMANS INVENTION.

BERLIN. Jan. 7.-Professor slaby
has solved the question of talking by
wireless telephone.
His experiments have been COM
pletely successful between Berlin and
Nauen, a distance of % miles, in a
direct line, but the professor says the
possibilities OF extending the distance
are almost limitless.
ut ought to be possible in the near
future" he states, "to telephone from
Berlin to London or from Berlin to
constantinople. In course of time we
ought to have communication between
Europe and America by means of a
wireless telephone system.
Such communication may, in fact,
be extended all over the world. 1t
is. as l said; impossible to define
the limits of this invention"
Experiments were first carried out
between two buildings in Berlin. sep.
arated from one another by n distance
of about three miles. The words tele.
phoned through the air without the
aid OF wires were distinctly heard and
taken down at the other end. Expert.
ments were then carried out over the
longer distance of 20 miles between
Berlin and Nauen.
The transmitting apparatus, which
is similar to that used for sending
wireless telegraph messages, a
erected on the roof of a building, 10
feet above ground. The receiving sta
tion at Nauen was on a high tower
used for wireless telegraph purposes.
Several conversations were carried on
between Berlin and Nauen with per-
feet success.
The words spoken into the transmit
ter In Berlin were repeated loudly and
distinctly by the receiver at Nauen.
A distinguished company of invited
guests, Including the Under Secre-
tnry of Posts and T~elegraphs, Herr
Sydow; several technical advisers to
the Ministry OF Posts, and a number
OF electrical engineers, witnessed these
astonishing experiments.

100 Husbands
Deserted Wives
MORE STRINGENT LAWS NEEDED
IN WEST VIRGINIA FOR
THAT oFFENsE.

WHEELING. Jan. There is n de
mand upon the part Of the authorize!
for a more stringent law for husband
who desert their families. Will,
there are 10 Official statistics gathere,
on the subject in Wheeling, 1t is as
serted that 100 is a conservative esti
mate for the number of men who a
away from their wives and famIiie:
Jlring the past year.
The n%on-support warrant Is a com
mon n in Justice shops, but by ia.
the majority of such cases never gel
within the jurisdiction OF a squire, as
the woman is usually averse 10 the no
tGriety that goes with swearing out a
warrant, and will not resort to this
step unless in dire need.
The police Office, however, is the
mecca for deserted wives. There they
tax their tales OF an u%nfaithful hus.
band who has absconded, sometimes
With another woman, INT leaving wife
and children without means of sup.
port.
Under the law, however. the police
are practically helpless in such cases.
OF course the city has no Jurisdiction
in its police court in charges of deser.
ton, but the police carry them
through, when possible, turning the
prisoner over TO the State. But II the
husband leaves the State he is safe
from prosecution.
Should Be Felony.
Desertion and non.support Is n mis-.
demeanor and not & felony in West
Virginia. And While the legal point
has been raised against the extradi.
ton of prisoners from q State in which
the offense is a misdemeanor, to a
State in which II is a felony. there is
no question about there being no e
tradition when the conditions are re.
versed.
In Ohio and Pennsylvania dcsertion
is a felony and consequently an extra.
ditable offense and as nearly all dis
appearing husbands go to one or the
other of these States, their enforced
return would be practically an easy
matter were the otfense made extradit-
able by West Virginia.
Many lawyers favor changing deser.
ton from a misdemeanor to a felony
ii: the State, and it is the impression
that such a bill will be introduced at
the coming session Of the legislature.
Whether this laying on OF the rod"
will tend to cure the trouble is a ques-
ton that will only be determined by
experience. Illinois will also likely
have such a law, demanded by Chicago
where there were 1000 desertions last
year.

No Danger Of War
Between America
And the Japanese
G. 3. GRIFFITH, WHO HAS STUD.
led QUESTION CLOSELY,
SAYS CONDITIONS DO
NOT WARRANT 1T.


PITTSBURG. Jan. Possibility O
a war between this country and Japan
over existing differences on the Cali
fornia schools and ownership of the
Philippine Islands is still very remote
according. TO G. B. Griffith. who has
offices in the First National Bank
building. He has studied the question
thoroughly and feels that Japan is too
wise to try TO get the Philippines in
any other way than by purchase. Eng
land, to which Japan would look for
aid in case Of war, Is too friendly with
the United States. Mr.. Griffith says,
TO allow OF such a proceeding. Con.
tinuing he said:
81 believe that ! can prove that in
the event of a war with our yellow
neighbors the same will be caused in.
directly by false agitation against
Japan, which would incite rlotous feel.
ing and bad blood on the part OF some
of II own citizens, who would heap
some indignities upon the Japanese
people in our midst or work out some
very unjust legislation, thereby ne,
cessitating an apology from our gov.
eminent or a battle.
Japanese would never enter into a
war with this country without the
support of England, and 1t would be
necessary for England to be directly
allied with her in a war against this
country before she could IN any way
support her in any breach she would
make with is. The conditions exist.
ing between this country and Eng.
land, as the two first and foremost
leading Christian Nations os the
world. are so identical that nothing
that is of interest to Japan could In
terfere with the friendly relations
which now exist between this country
and England. Although Japan might
aspire to certain possessions which
we have they are not such conceited
people as to believe for a moment
they could possess themselves of the
same. I am prepared to say that II
they ever possess our Philippines they
will do so by purchase. They have
statesmen equal to our own. and they
have generals whom we ourselves
would be proud to have in our army
and navy. both as fighting men and
diplomats. and for this reason their
intelligence would not permit them TO
make n breach with us.
at has not been England's policy
for the last so years to act in other
lines than. that of the utmost friend
ship with this country. and a general
uprising OF all Europe will come be.
fore We see trouble with Japan. The
Sultan's dominion will be sliced and
divided. Russia will be n republic and
iother great changes will be seer long
before We have trouble with Japan.
The Japanese people like us. and the
only trouble which could be brought
about would be caused by our becom-
ing prejudicei through a misunder.
standing growing out Of the writings
of some narrow bigot.'
In conclusion Mr.. Griffith said lit
tie attention should be paid to ex-
travagant statements predicting war
between the United States and Japan.
There are no conditions warranting
trouble, he argues.

WAYNESBURG, Pa, Jan. 1T was
announced from an authoritative
source here that the total losses in.
volved in the failure of the Farmers
and Drovers' National Bank will not
exceed 100000, with sufficient assets
to cover this amount and protect
stockholders and depositors. 1t was
given out that not a depositor would
lose and that probably no assessment
upon the stockholders would be re.
quired.
A persistent report was current
here today that J. B. +. Rinehart was
endeavoring to organize a trust com.
pany in Waynesburg with himself as
president. Rinehart refused to dis.
cuss the matter.
Judge Holt, of Beaver. who held
the hearing in the injunction proceed
ings brought by the Farmers and
Drovers Bank against R. H. Goldberg
C Co., by which the latter's clothing
store was closed. dissolved the injunc.
ton and discharged the temporary re-
c%eiver. Sheriff John J. Keebert, upon
the ground that the court had no
Jurisdiction and that the store coull
not be closed upon Injunction proceed
ings brought by a creditor.
Immediately upon the receipt OF the
opinion at the Prothonotary's Office
Attorney James E. Sayers, represent.
ing Examiner John B. Cunningham,
had an execution Issued upon a note
held by the bank against Goldberg G
Co. and the store was again closed.
