repetition of the wonderful discovery
In telegraphy some years ago, when it
was demonstrated that the earth itself
could he substituted for one OF the two
wires which we're thought necessary
to establish circuit.
All the necessary instruments re-
quired in the new scheme Of telephon-
ing are already developed and can he
purchased from dealers IN the open
market. 1t Is further announced that
in order to get the benefit Of additional
conversations upon single wire cir
cult it is not necessary to interfere
in the slightest degree with the opera.

lions, which remain unchanged"
Positive proof Of the practicallity of
the invention is offered in the fact
that there is now in operation sys-
tenn giving two independent telephone
conversations over q single wire which
runs from the laboratory Of the signal

The gift Of the invention to the peo-
pie of the United States is contained
in the following from the official an
nouncement:
THE unrestricted use Of this method
Is free to all people Of the United
States. and there is no royalty or 9th
er expense attached to the use of this
system"
The invention Is covered by four
patents.
This discovery was predicted thir-
ty-five years ago by Thomas A. Edi-
son. when the prediction was regarded
more rs dream than possibility.
1t is stated by those familiar with the
working Of the new scheme that at
least four people can talk on the same
single telephone wire at once without
mutual interference.
Statisticians who have given atten-
ton to the possibilities of the new sys-
TEN say that the American Telephone
and Telegraph company could save

the war departments discovery.
The secret Of the invention is the

also that this report, made month

There is but one new building of

This is twenty-five story hotel ON

Mr.. Henard proposes also that great

building one street above another. He
ridicules the tenacity with which pub

bottom Of the street must be on a level
