WIRELESS MESSAGE
ACROSS CONTINENT
First Transcontinental Greeting Sent
from Arlington to Mare
Island,

The first transcontinental wireless mes
sage ever sent was dispatched from the
Arlington. Station last night to Mare
Island Navy Yard, San Francisco. Cal
| It was addressed to Commandment Mayo
at that station. and conveyed the Christ
mas greetings OF the Secretary Of the
Navy and officials OF the Navy Depart
ment
Yesterday morning a message was re-
| ceived from Commandant Mayo which
, read:
ITO the Secretary of the Navy Washing
ton. y. c.:
The commandant and officers wish the
Secretary Of the Navy and officers of the
department a merry Christmas and a
happy new year. MAYO"
This message. 1t was at first believed,
had, with its message of peace and good
will blazed the trail OF the wireless
across the American continent 1t was
learned later. however. that the message
instead of coming direct to Washington
had been relayed via Key West. Fla.
This. OF course, made it practically trans
continental in scope. in addition to which
it traversed a greater distance to Key
West than it would have 10 Washington.
The reply. however. proved the real eff
fiCacy OF the newly erected towers at
Arlington. which sent the reply flashing
through the air to the far-distant naval
station.
The reply was written by Rear Admiral
Philip Andrews, acting Secretary of the
Navy.
There has been frequent interchange
of signals between the Arlington and
Mare Island stations since the Virginia
station was put into operation recently,
but this has been fragmentary, and last
night was the first time the wireless
was used to send an official message
across the continent.

Story of Rescue.

Lieut.. COvell at once ordered the laid
up vessel 10 sea. BY superhuman effort

one was that the coal would give out.

breeze that almost amounted TO a gale.
the little cutter was with difficulty kept
TO her course. She struggled forward all
Christmas Day. and 1t was not until late
at night that the Alcazar was sighted in
the moonlight. The Alcazar was floun-
dering helplessly, all but FIVE men having
abandoned her. These half-froZen and
forlorn men sent up a faint cheer as the
Seminole hove TO.
The crew had given up all hope n res
che hours before. The Seminole made fast
10 the abandoned vessel and, according to
wireless dispatches from Lieut.. Covell,
the two crippled ships are slowly making
their way to port. According to the dis
patches. the five men found on the AL
cazar are members OF the crew Of the
Dorchester. The Dorchester Is believed
to be q Merchants and Miners ship on
the South Atlantic run. How members of
her crew came to be on the AlCaZar was
not explained. The dispatches made no
mention Of the little story Of heroism in
