places made 1t necessary to establish
switching stations on the long distance cir
cults whenever they passed near large
cities. Thus messages may be turned into
the city itself or may be carried on with
out the loss of power that would result
from their passing through lot OF cable
construction. AS more places require tele-
phone wires buried in cables the efforts OF
the engineers TO extend the distance over
which they can talk are made more and
more difficult. To a less extent perhaps
but none the less to very agreeable de-
gree, the interference of foliage and tree
limbs is a serious obstruction to long dis
lance talking. In many places the Bell
engineers buy private rights-ofway and cut
down trees on both sides Of the line, which
protects the wires from interference and
lessons the risk OF their being broken down
in storms. But this cannot be done every
where and with the restrictions that are
placed on trimming trees on highways It
is impracticable to avoid leakage from this
cause.
During the last twelve months the last
gap in the Bell system was filled in, so that
now there are wires that can be connected
into one continuous line from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Already in the laboratories
in Boston conversations have been held by
experts over artificial circuits representing
more than 5000 miles OF ideal line. How

run in and out of switchboards along the
way, and here and there the messages
must leave the poles to travel for some dis
lance under ground The loss of efficiency
in what are called the substation loops
that is to say, the lines between the CEN
trail offices and the subscribers telephones
reduces the distance of possible transmits
sion a full third. This is because of the
resistance offered to the passage of the
current by apparatus and by the small
wires that have been used in underground
cables and in the wiring of buildings. and
so on. When a telephone message passes
through a switching station, either regu-
lar central office or one Of the long distance
stations located outside of large cities, the
effect on the current may be as great,
under some conditions, as would be pro-
duced by adding $50 miles of line.
In putting wires underground it is neces-
sary to get them into as small compass as
possible. Crowding the wires together in
this way greatly increases what electri-

clans call capacity" thereby cutting down
the limits of transmission. AS a matter
of fact, you can talk about thirty times
as far over an open overhead wire of the
size adopted as standard by the Bell sys-
TEN as you can through the ordinary size
of underground cable, or overhead cable
for that matter, for 1t is all the same
thing. In local traffic around a city this
is not so important; but in long distance
traffic It is a very serious consideration.
Example in Practice.
For instance, a man in New York calls
up a man in Chicago. The distance be-
tween the two cities, as the Bell lines 60
is 932 miles. Where the wires pass directly
from one city to the other and are not
"cut in at way stations, very good trans
mission can be secured The last year or
two il has become commercially possible
to have a few through circuits of this
sort; the other circuits, in order to be
economically operated must be used for
way trafic between intermediate cities
when through trafic does not demand
them The central offices at either end
and the switching stations in between add
what amounts to from 200 to 400 miles to
the actual mileage of the cross-country
wires.
Even so, telepnOny mas Deen perfected
to a point where these obstacles would be
satisfactorily overcome. But there may be
from two TO ten miles OF underground at
the New Workers. end OF the line and from
three to twelve miles more of underground
at the Chicagoan's end. Together these
sections of underground add, roughly. the
equivalent OF another 400 miles. Further
more, a majority of business calls are be-
tween private bank exchange subscribers.
The private switchboard, while very con-
venient is often the case. OF further losses
in transmission due very largely to the
practice in many Offices OF requiring the
person who operates 1t to stay in on the
line" TO see that everything goes smoothly
for the takers. When an operator Is thus
kept In on a connection at each end OF the
line. the loss Is approximately equal 10
that of 800 miles OF open wire. SO while
you are talking between places actually
less than a thousand miles apart, the tele-
phone system must have as great efficiency
as would be required 70 communicate
nearly 800 miles Of your telephone and that
OF the man you converse with were at
tached directly TO the ends OF open wires
Buried Wires Make Trouble.
The complications introduced by the
necessity Of buryins the wires in many
Omaha daily bee., 1907-01-27

half way across the continent, there has
been a steady succession of improvements
In the telephone art, many of which have
received little attention from the telephone
using public.
In its early days the telephone used the
same sort OF iron wire that the telegraph
employs and the circuit was completed
through the ground. This works very we'll
for short distances, but the transmission
OF every meditation OF the voice is a much
more delicate matter than transmitting the
taps of telegraph key. The first step,
then, toward extending the distance over
which messages could be sent by telephone
was the invention of a process OF hardening
copper wire so that it would not stretch
from its own weight when strung from pole
to pole And It is an interesting fact that
Thomas b. Doolittle, who invented the
method OF doing this and thereby made
possible the use Of copper conductors in
all electrical Industries. Is still an active
member of the engineering force Of the
Bell system, which has devised practically
every improvement in telephone apparatus
and equipment since DR.. Bells first funda-
mental discovery.
Limit of Conversation.
The first copper telephone wire was about
the size or the iron telegraph wire II re-
placed With improved long distance"
instruments. such as are now In general
use for all kinds OF service, conversations
can be conducted over wire OF this size for
about $50 miles with what the engineers
call standard transmission" by increas-
ing the size OF the copper strands on their
long distance lines, the Bell engineers have
more than doubled the early limits Of sue
cessful transmission.
II might seem II all that was necessary
would be TO keep on increasing the size OF
the wire indefinitely and thus extend the
range Of talking. Even were II not for
scientific difficulties, the cost OF the metal
alone, at its present high price, for much
heavier conductors than they now used
would be practically prohibitive. Neither can
transmission over greater distance be
secured by means OF more sensitive APP
paratus. for II the telephone instrument
were made more sensitive than Il is, IL
would become so microphonio, as IL is
called, that noises that could reach the
diaphragm would cause such a tumble
OF sound that the words Of a telephone
message could not be understood
So the problem before the engineers has
been TO md way to prevent the telephone
current from "decaying'' during the jour
Omaha daily bee., 1907-01-27

ney of a message over the lines. That is,
the engineers have sought means to
counterteract the inevitable loss OF ef-
ficiency in the current and to keep 1t as
near as possible at it's original strength
Two methods Of doing this have been tried.
Separately they have worked out well; but
as yet they have not been applied CONNER
cially to the same line.
Devices to Prevent DECAY"
The two devices that promise so much
for the extension Of the range OF long
distance talking are the loading coil and
the repeater. Though the ends they &C
complish are, TO a certain extent, the same,
the principles on which they work are en-
tirely different. When the electrical cur
rent from the transmitter OF one telephone
starts out on its journey TO the receiver
OF another telephone a thousand miles
away say, II loses strength very fast, sink
ing away by degrees until finally It becomes
too weak TO reproduce vibrations distinctly.
The loading coil, which was invented by
prof. Michael I. Pupin OF Columbia uni
versity, acts as a sort of stimuiant. II
consists Of an iron core upon which is wind
ing upon winding Of fine wire through
which the talking current is passed In such
a way that It is strengthened against the
decaying processes and maintained at a
level high enough to give satisfactory
transmission. These coils are attached TO
line two. four OF may be eight miles
apart, and their use approximately doubles
the range of the telephone
The repeater. which is later invention
produced by one OF the Bell engineers
operates very differently. AS its name sig
nifies, It actually repeats the message
which, coming through a receiver, repro
duces itself automatically on a transmitter
This allows OF putting new current into
the line, just the original current is IN
troduced at the transmitter Of the sub
scribers telephone. The result is practi-
cally TO start the message all over again
with fresh lease OF life, though naturally
the force that carries IL cannot be made
quite as good as new. A repeater in the
middle of long distance circuit extends
the range OF talking about 50 per cent.
Ideal Conditions OF Transmission.
While these remarkable strides in ad-
vance have been made, there have been
other influences at work which tend TO
delay rather than hasten the extension Of
long distance service. The ideal transmits
sion would be obtained over lines of heavy
copper wire strung upon poles. In practice,
however, the long distance lines must be

wildernesses and across sun-baked deserts.

ICE HARVEST ON THE LAKES
Cutting at Cut c # and Other Places Begins
with lins Prospect,
JACK FROST HITS TRUST HARD BLOW
swifts VIII Employ Four Hundred
Men on Hundred and Twenty
Acres, of water IL
Available.

Jack Frost threatens to knock the props
from under the Ice trust in its next sum
mer designs upon Omaha.
-Four hundred men cutting ice over 12)
acres Of water at Cut-On lake for period
of six weeks-"Thats what win happen IL
we can get the men," said the foreman at
the Swift ice plant at the lake Tuesday
morning. I'VE have begun cutting" he
added. and will keep on II we can get men
enough. Our ice is from nine to ten inches
thicK, OF fine quality. the weather is good
and everything propitious; all we want is
men-men who will work. We want 400 of
them. The harvest will afford six weeks
work. The Swift and old Hammond ice
houses will be used for storage"
The unusually mild weather of the winter
thus far had given rise to that same old
lump which comes up in the throat of
Common People every such winter, that
Omaha was to have a dearth of ice, but
now the worm has turned and not only on
Cut-Off, but on other lakes of smaller di-
mansions around Omaha ice harvesters are
going to work with a prospect of a rich
fruitage The experiences of last summer
with the Ice trust have given a tremendous
bullish tendency to the popularity of Jack
Frost in this city. When Common People
awoke this morning and found the ground
covered with snow and the thermometer
several notches lower than it had been he
laughed. clapped his hands and began to
sing that little ditty he used to sing when
he was a boy
oh, Jack Frost is a roguish little fellow,
When the wintry wind begins to below, &C.
He was even happy Of the opportunity to
pay for an extra supply of coal. The coal
mans stock Of popularity went up right
away.
Ana just to think, the Board of County
Commissioners revoked all those extortion-
ate ice bids, decided to wait on the weather
and advertise for new bids
