To-day, September 29th, speech
was successfully transmitted from the
Arlington radio station to the radio

successfully received, thus making
possible conversation without wires

to-day, the voice was successfully
transmitted by radio to Mare Island
from Arlington, the return answers
and communication being made over
the transcontinental line. This was
successfully accomplished in the pres
ence of officials and engineers of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company, and the Western Electric
Company, a representative of the sig
nal corps of the army, representa-
tive of the technical and operating de-
partments of the navy department and
a few other interested parties. After

Lieutenant Bastedo, all of the navy,
Words, phrases and sentences were
heard from all of those by the listen
ers at Mare Island, Notwithstanding
the fact that the static" disturbances
were of an unusually violent nature.
Mr.. Carly stated that the results
achieved outdistance anything hereto
fore accomplished, and that this feat
of talking across the continent is rec
ognized by experts as being of great
er difficulty than talking across the
Atlantic, for transmission over water
is much easier than over land, par
ticularly in view of the formidable
mountain ranges to be crossed on the
continent.
Mr.. Carly Tells Possibilities.
Telephone messages" Mr.. Carly
said, were transmitted with success
from Arlington, Va, to the Isthmus of
Panama, where they were received at
the government radio station by one

val officers in charge, who telegraph

When asked what he thought would
be the limit of this new system of his

H. G.. Billiard, of the United States
Navy, who has jurisdiction over the
Arlington, there automatically con-
nected to the radio transmitter which
carried the voice to Mare Island where
it was clearly and distinctly received,
and answered and other conversations
were from there transmitted over the

ton was carried on by the president OF
the American Telephone and Tele-

Mare Island were officials of the navy
department, John J. Carly, chief en-
gineer of the American Telephone and

tiyes of the Western Electric Company.
Every official taking part in this dem
onstration is enthusiastic about the re-
suits and the possibility of develop
ing this system as an extension OF the
telephone system to ships at sea. The
fact that the voice can be started on
a land wire and automatically trans
mitted to a voice radio transmitter
holds out hope that persons inland
should readily be put in touch by
telephone with others at sea through

ances at the Metropolitan Opera House
during the last month. On Friday even
ing Miss Duncan will present a pro
