MANY VOICES"
WERE IN THE AIR
WIRELESS STATION BITS CON-
vERsATIoN BETWEEN AND sHERNAN-THE
TRANSPORTS WERE ANswERI ONE ANOTHER SEVERAL
HUNDRED MILES OF OCEAN.

"Too many strays" was the verdict
from Barber's Point wireless operator
this morning when inquiries were
made as to he results of last nights
tests with wireless from that station.
Manager ]. A. Baleh Of the Wireless
Telegraph Company yesterday after
noon took Expert A. A. Izbell to Bar
ber's point for the purpose Of expert
menting to locate favorable position
on this island for the long distance
station soon to be erected.
Atmospheric conditions, however,
were anything but favorable. There
were too many "strays," too many dis
turbances atmospherically and it was
difficult to tell whether sympathetic
instrument was reaching for communi-
cation or natural electric phenomena
held the air.
Isbell and Balch could hear the
transports Sherman and Thomas sig
Mailing each other by wireless, but
