CUT OUT THE EAvEsoRoppER
New Device 10 Expected to Eliminate
Listening Inn on Wireless
Messages.

Successful demonstrations Of new
wireless invention. which marks u
step toward the secrecy Of wireless
telephone and telegraph messages,
have taken place In Great Britain,
and Signor Marconi is at present con.
Quoting further tests at sea In his
yacht Electra with a view to Its wild.
er application.
Details Of the invention are secret
but It may be stated that, according
20 the Continental edition of the Lon
don Daily Mail. an apparatus has
been devised which, by what experts
call an electrical method of concen-
tration," propagates the electric wire
less wave In beam In any desired
direction and in that direction only.
Hitherto the electrical waves sent
spread out in nll directions and NIL
who "listened in" could hear. The
new Invention will mark the end of
the wireless "eavesdropper." When
It is perfected wireless station Will
be able to send out Morse or spoken
messages which will be heard only by
those for whom they are intended.
The new apparatus which Is being
worked ut IN experiment station In
Great Britain with short wnvc
length. has recently been demonstrate
ed by n number Of experts who ex.
pressed the greatest interest In the
discovery.
1t Is known that German wireless
research has been lately closely d.
