1908 as compared with f29. 900 in
1907. while applications for the reg

increase. amounting To the total of 50
per cent This increase in the num-

AGREE ON WEEKS BILL
Income From Forests to $i,000,0 900
viii Co to Buying New Reserves

Washington, Jan. 30.-Before final
ly reporting the Weeks bill, looking to
the establishment of forest reserves in
the White Mountains, the House com
mittee on agriculture has placed a
limitation on the amount of money
that may be expended under the bill.
The bill as finally agreed upon, pro
vides that not more than 100000
shall be expended during the coming
fiscal year for the purchase OF land
for reserves, and not more than 3d.
000,0 900 in any subsequent year The
life of the proposed law Is fixed at 10
years.
Hope for the passage Of the bill is
based largely on its character which,
while intended especially in the in
terest Of the proposed Appalachian
and White mountain reservations, is
still general in its character Il was
this applicability Of the bill to all sec
tions of the country and its harmonic
ing with the basic ideas OF the recent
conservation congress that made 1t
possible to get the measure out of the
committee.
The Weeks bill provides that the
reserves shall be purchased from mon
eys received from the sale or disposal
of any products or the use of lands or
resources from the public lands now
or hereafter set aside as national for
ests. In other words, it Is planned
to have the forest reserves of the coun
try so managed as to purchase more
forest reserves,
The bill provides that the moneys
derived from the national forests
shall be reserved In the United States
treasury as a special fund to be
known as the national forest reserva-
ton fund TO be used in the examina-
ton, survey and requirement of lands
located on the head waters OF navi-
gable streams or those which are be-
ing or which may be developed for
navigable purposes"

LoNe pIsTANoE WIRELEss
Navy Department TO Establish 5000
Mile Station.


Washington. Jan. SO.-Following the
achievements Of wireless telegraphy
in the recent collision between the
steamers Republic and Florida. the
Navy Department has opened bids for
locating a wireless tower in Washing
ton for communication with ships at
sea to the distance Of 5000 miles.
For a long time the department has
felt the desirability Of the develop
ment Of wireless telegraphy as a
means Of communicating for long dis
tances between central stations at var
iOus points In the United States With
the commands AZ sea- An effort was
at FIRST made TO secure the Washing
ton monument because Of its great
height for this purpose, bat this met
with disapproval by the president and
bids for constructing 2 tower ware in
vited several months ago.
The specifications require that the
tower or station shall be capable Of
transmitting messages At all times
and at all seasons in . radius Of 5000
miles in any nRvlgable direction
from Washington. The messages are
not TO be interrupted by atmospher-
ic disturbances or interferences by
neighboring stations.
AT the same time the department
asked for bids for two se.s of APP
paratus to be installed on naval yes
sells, to be capable Of transmitting
and receiving messages at all timss
seasons. and ATTITUDES. to and from
a distance OF 1000 miles, and 70 re-
ceive messages from the Washington
station 1t 3 distance Of s.ete miles
at all times
The bids submitted indicated a
lively competition, no less than seven
firms submitting proposals. The most
satisfactory of these, according to
the officials, was that Of the National
Electric Signaling Company of Pitts
burg, which offered to furnish the
apparatus and tower for $780, 600.
Features of some of the other bids
which included ideas not called for
in the specifications. favorably i'm
pressed the officials and they may
receive consideration before the
award is made.
Another manifestation OF the inter
est OF. Congress is the proposed com
pulsory equipment OF ocean-going
steamers with wireless telegraph
apparatus was evidenced today.
when Representative Peters of
Massachusetts introduced a bill
more general in its application than
the first bill on the subject, intro
duced by Representative Burke Of
Pennsylvania
Mr.. Peters proposes to require
wireless telegraph equipment on all
ocean-going vessels, in both the
foreign and domestic service, plying
between ports more than 100 miles
distant The Burke bill applies on
ly to vessels in the foreign service.
A maximum penalty of $1eee is pre-
vided in the Peters bill.
