HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT.
The Earlier Tests of the Trans -Atlan-
 tic Line.

New York. oct. lit was on Jan mary g. 1901. that MT. Marconi estab- lished communication between St. Catherine's on the lee of Wight. and the Lizard in Cornwall. a distance of 1s3 miles. thus proving the plinciple of the non-interferenCe of the curvature of the earth which had been anticipa- ted by many scientific men who had investigated the newly discovered prin- ciple of wireless telegraphy. These results Justified MT. Marconi fin rec ommending the erection of high power station. with the object of tel egraphing wirelessly across the Allan tic Such station was erected at POldhu. in Cornwall. and on December r.. 1901 the first clear and intelligi- ble signals sent across the Atlantic were received from Boldhu at a tenn porary station located near St. Johns Newfoundland. In commemoration of this event an official complimentary luncheon was given Mir. Marconi by the governor of Newfoundland. Sir Caven- dish Bo-le.
 In July. August and September of 1902, MT. Marconi at the invitation of the Italian government. made a cruise in the warship Carlo Alberto" and daring the voyage carried out import ant tests in wireless telegraphy. Dur ing these experiments messages trans mitted from Poldhu were received across land and water CD nearly as far as ,Kronstadt in the Gulf of Finland. Russia. distance of 1i00 miles @ at Gibraltar across the whole of Spain. over a distance of 1000 miles and (3), in the Mediterranean off the coast of Corsica. over distance of 1000 mile. although the whole of France and part of the Alps intervened between the two stations Messages in nearly all posi- tions and places visited by the cruiser were received either on MT. Marconfs receiver. working a tape instrument, or by means of his magnetic receiver. The reports of these tests were signed by Admiral Mirebelle. the present head os the Italian nav..
 As a result of the success of these tests. the Italian minister of marine, at the request of the King of 1taiy, issued orders that the Carlo Alberto" should be placed at MT. Marconi's disposal for the purpose of assisting him in the es- tablishment of communication be- tween Canada and England. On the goth of October 1902 the Carlo Alber- to- left Plymouth and sailed for Syd- ney, NOvia Scotia, and messages were received from Poldhu througnout the voyage to sydney, distance of 2.5OO miles.
 After a few weeks preliminary work at the station. which had in pursuance of arrangements made between the Canadian government and Mir. Marco nj. been erected at Glace Bay, Cane Breton, the following message ' ;

 OF FORD JURY
Indications That Ruef Will
 Not Be Called
The Examination of Ma sons as to Their Feeling Toward Defendant.

San Francisco, Oct. 13.-Today, the first day of the second bribery trial of former Attorney General Tirey l.. Ford. chief counsel for the United Railroads compassed the examination of sixteen Veniremen of whom six were accepted subject to peremptory chal- lenge and ten were dismissed. mostly for declarations of bias. Though the day was without sensations it was moi devoid of incident.
 Chiefly notable among the questions asked by Heney was the query as to whether the venireman was willing to vote for conviction on circumstantial evidence alone. provided it satisfied him Of the defendants guilt. As il has been made plain that Abe Ruef is the one witness who can transform the Ford case from a purely circumstantial one into q direct one, this reiterated question of Heney's may mean that Ruef is not to be called. The failure to call him at the first is thought to have provoked q mistrial
 The defense conducted alternately by Earl Rogers and A. A. Moore elab- orated a bold line of inquiry started by Heney when the Masons among the panelmen were tested as to whether Ford's membership of that order would influence them in his favor. One thought it would and another declared that it would not. The work of se- lecting the jury will be resumed to- morrow morning.

THE EFFECT IN GERMANY.


 Berlin, Oct. 11.-Several Berlin banks are involved in the failure of the Hamburg firm of Haller. Soehle X Co, but for moderate sums only. which are regarded as safe. The fail ure created heavy selling on the Bourse, bank stocks especially SCOT ing big declines. American shares also were sharply depressed upon re- ports from New York It was an- nounced at late hour tonight that a committee of the Reichs Bank had been called to meet tomorrow. This means an increase of the bank rate.
 pr. Soehl is director of the Wesch- Ter bank, and the Carbonite Explosive company. It is probable that the posi- ton of the firm has been partially weakened through the workings of the heirs of deceased members. This has absorbed considerable capital. IL has been known for some time in some circles that the bankers. HaIler, Soehle X Co. Were in rather a precarious con- dltlon- One of the foremost Hamburg banks instituted an investigation of the financial condition of the firm with the view of arranging a coalition of the banks. The failure has created a panicky condition on the bOurse and culation. According to one report Soehle & Co. were heavily hie by fall ing coppers and were affected by the difficulties of Otto Heinze & Co. but Fhis is apparently mistake.

TEXAS BANK SUCCUMeS.
One of the Oldest n the State Closed
 Its Doors.

Houston. Oct. 17.-One of the oldest banking houses in Texas went to tn ,, wall this afternoon when T. w. House. the banker, filed a general assignment under the state law. W. B. Chew, NJ. D. Cleveland and J. $. Rice are named assignees. They qualified with s100.O0o bonds. It is stated that the resources are amply sufficient to pay the cred itOrs in full. Inability to realize on securities not readily convertible into cash is considered the only cause or the assignment.
 Prior to the assignment the Houston clearing house held a prolonged session but nothing was given out for publica- tion. The Houston bank was estab- lished in 1893 by the father of the present banker. IL weathered success fully every financial storm since that date. IL was a private bank unincor- porated and never made a statement of any character of its affairs. It is stated that the bank had deposits of more than s2.OO0.OoO when its doors were closed.
