New System Much Faster than
Old, Experts Declare.

London. July 24.-Wireless messages
will be sent across the Atlantic and to
other parts Of the world by new sys-
tenn. according to experts, within four
months not only much faster than by
the present systems but also with such
precision that 1t will be possible TO send
pictures by this means.
The new system has been taken up
by one Of the big European telegraph
companies and will have thorough
test ut the hands of a syndicate or
ganized under the auspices OF the tele-
graph company, so far as the transmits
sion Of wirelo messages Is concerned.
Stations are to be erected at Lyons,
In France, and at Washington, and the
inventor says that he will be able u
send at the rate OF two hundred words

The Improvement consists in being
able to control a continuous wave, as
compared with intermittent waves by
the present systems.
After the Franco American line Is

T. R. SESAME TO WOMEN
For First Time They're to Serve
on Political Committees.

For the first time in the history Of
American politics women are to get rep
resentation on political committees, ~
the ideas OF William H. Hotchklss are
carried out The provisional chairman OF
the National Progressive party was in
consultation yesterday with three mem.
bers OF the womsn's suffrage party, the
names OF whom he would not reveal I'm
regard 10 the choice Of women for the
committee IN this county. They will prob
ably go on other county committees as
well.
II am not IN favor OF giving women a
place on party committees simply as an
expedient," said Mr.. Hotchkiss. II have
always believed that women should have
voice in settling the political problems
Of the republic and TO that end should
have a vote However, We can do as
much as possible for them by appointing
them on our county committees / have
no doubt that the vote will come later.
THE reason why the old line parties
have always been opposed to allowing
women vote Is because women introduce
an unknown factor into the situation and
may affect the control Of tho machines
now held by the bosses"

ply to questions put to him by the ply
sicians, but no sound escaped his lips
