published IN this country last Saturday
that there had been wireless telephone
exchanges across the Atlantic between

so transmitted. but the error was In de-
scribug the sounds as those Of the hu-
man voice. and II apparently originated IN
Berlin. where the word for an aerial tele-
gram was confused with that for an
aerial telephone message.
This explanation was received yester-
day from Emile Mayer OF the Cold
