EDISON TALKS OVER

Speaks From San Francisco to Lab

Amplitier Attached.


WEST ORANGE, n. J., oct. 22.---
Thomas A. Edison. the wizard Of cleo
tricity. talked for the first time over
the telephone Thursday night.
When his friend, DR.. Alexander
Graham Bell, was experimenting on
the fool contraption." Edison tried
It. The wire was strung across lot
Mr.. Edison, quite deaf, could hear
nothing that came over the wire. But
when the man at the other end could
hear Edison's words he would wave
his hand to the inventor.
That was years ago. Mr.. Edison had
never tried it since that time when
he talked across lots"
Thursday night he talked across the
continent. over $500 miles of wires
crossing mountains and plains and
valleys, his voice came TO a large gath
ering of notables assembled in the
Edison laboratory in West Orange. Mr..
Edison and his wife were at the 10Th
er end in San Francisco. They heard
his voice as perfectly as though he
had been across the lot"
Edison too heard them distinctly,
despite his affection. An amplifier,
which multiplied the sound waves
had been attached to his instrument
and he was overjoyed at its success.

London, April 16.-German aero
planes this afternoon were dropping
bombs in Kent, within 80 miles of
London. The machines first made
their appearance over Herne bay to
the east of Canterbury, and about SO
miles from London. Within a few
minutes they were reported over Can
terbury, closer to the capital. and very
shortly afterward they appeared over
Faversham, then over Sitting Bourne.
not more than 80 miles away, drop
ping bombs on each town.
This was the third German aerial
attack on the eastern counties of Eng
land in the last .36 hours The two
previous attacks were made at night
by Zeppelin airships. This raid was
carried out by aeroplanes. Aerial on
slaughts, however, have not been linn
tied to the Germans. French official
reports claim successful lombard
ment from the sky of the Imperial
German headquarters in retaliation
for a Zeppelin assault on Nancy.
German wireless report credits to a
Swiss newspaper the statement that
French airmen have dropped bombs
on several German towns unprotected
by aircraft guns. London no longer
considers itself immune from air raid
ers of the Zeppelin type. IT is real
lied also that even aeroplanes could
bonn bard the city.
Public More Confident.
Zeppelins on their recent night raids
have travelled further from their Cux-
haven base than the distance from
Cuxhaven to London. and have
brought a new conception of the eff
fective range of this type of machine.
Nevertheless the public is skeptical of
the powers for harm of Zeppelins, the
trifling damage done during the night
raids of Wednesday and Thursday
being cited in justification of this feel
ing. 1t would appear that the latest
air raiders have used bombs of an in
cendiary rather than an explosive
character.
In the land operations the French
claim brilliant success north OF
Arras. which completes the gain made
near there last month. The German
position. according to the report given
out officially in Paris. was taken at
the point of the bayonet. On the
heights of the Meuse, the Germans
evidently are beginning a movement
to retake Les Parges. Berlin claims
to have repulsed all the French at
tacks along the western front, thus
putting an end to the French often
Mihiel untenable. On the eastern
front neither side seems to be making
any headway. The lack of definite
news from this arena of the war is
filled by a crop of rumors which agree
only on one point. namely, that great
events are impending in the east.
Last Nights Raid.
Last nights Zeppelin raid resulted
in considerable damage to property,
although so far as is known no lives
were lost 1t is announced officially
in Berlin that the airship which made
the first raid returned in safety.
Over England.

FIGHT 81 HOURS
Great Battle Between the Rus
SLAMS and the AustrianS.
One Division of Franz JOSeDh'S
Reserves AnnihiIated.

Geneva, April 16.-The Tribune
publishes a dispatch from Ungvar in
Northeastern Hungary saying a great
battle has been fought between the
Stry and the Valley of the Ondava. A
German army composed of picked
men attacked the Russians marching
on Bereg. After 32 hours of severe
fighting the Russians succeeded in re-
pulsing the Germans and capturing a
quantity of arms and ammunition.
Another dispatch received here from
Vienna says 65 Austrian officers have
been disciplined for negligence which
resulted in the annihilation of a di-
vision of reserves near Bereg and the
Austrian defeat in the Sarac region.
The announcement also is made in
Geneva that Austrian troops from the
Serbian frontier are being sent to the
Trentino, and that a number of them
already have passed through Salsburg

Neuve Chapelle Is CObbled With
Bones of Germans.
Hundreds of Bodies Lie Buried
i'm Shallow Graves.
EARTH STREWN WITH CORPSES
Neither Side DareS to Give
Them Interment.
Thousands Found Sepulchre in
the Demolished Trenches.

Neuve Chapelle, April 16-The
ground to the west of this now shat
tered town of Neuve Chapelle, from
which the British drove the Germans
in the middle of March, with such ter
rible loss of life for both Sides is lit
orally cobbled with German skulls.
The dead lie buried in shallow graves,
everywhere and the vicinity is strewn
with wreckage and debris.
The British have made it as tidy as
they can, but beneath many of the
trenches and dugoutS six inches of
bayonet will meet the resistance of
cloth and human flesh, while in the
norman land between the British lines
and the German trenches to the east
bodies lie thick.
Neither the Germans nor the British
dare attempt to remove the cOrpses
and unless some situation develops to
alter the relative positions of the op-
posing lines they are likely still to be
there when summer comes.
Many of the trenches and dugoutS
where the men live harbor the bodies
of men which were covered with earth
after the rush. White crosses dot the
landscapes between the lines.
So quickly did the British break
through the German line that full de-
tails of the action only now are be-
coming known. The suddenness of
the advance was such that many of
the men were so dazed that all they
the British staff officers laughingly
assert that it was too quick for the
best results.
''If we had had a chance for it that
day, L believe we could have taken
Aubers also and perhaps Lille said
one officer with smile "At any
rate, we gave the Germans their worst
drubbing of the war and the effect all
along our front has been incalculable.
Every man in the British army be-
Eeves sincerely we could break the
German line if we wanted to-

Superintendent WaterWOrkS Is
Reappointed Today.
Other Employees of Office Re-
tanned by Newland.

There will be no change in the per-
sonnel of employees of the city water
and lighting department. Frank New
land, city commissioner of water and
lighting, at the last meeting of the
city commission, asked for the confir-
nation of Frank L.. Stevens as assist
ant superintendent and cashier of the
water department, but failed to pre-
sent any other nameS.S.As a result
there was some %Npeculation as 10
whether %or not som& employees would
be dropped
There will be no changes what
ever,'' Mr.. Newland said. Jesse
Shaw will again be superintendent of
the water department and the other
employees will all be re-appointed. 1
did not present their names because
there are to be some changes made in
the salary ordinance. AS salaries can
be neither increased nor reduced after
an appointee has accepted an office, L
decided to wait until after the new
ordinance is passed"
The new salary ordinance is nest
egg upon which the old city commits
sion sat for six months and finally left
the nest with cubation still incom-
plete. giving way to the new admin
istration.
When the city budget was made up
of this year, increases in salaries
were allowed for several city en-
ployees, but the old city commission
never "came across and the wistful
walters on the city pay roll were told
to wait until after election for the
passage of a new appropriation ordi-
nance carrying increases in salaries.
