New Wireless Light
Said to Burn Three
Years Continuously
Cold Bottled Sunshine" Declared to
Have Been Made BY Italian, Retus-
ing $4,000 for His Patent.

Wireless light-the long-sought-tor
cold light, o-called-will be the next
great development of the wireless era,
Il the plans OF the Tomadelli Corpora
ton of Jersey City are brought to ma
turitv, saws the New York Tribune.
Bottled sunlight" is the way the
company characterizes its product, de-
claring that the lights it manufactures
will burn continuously Tor three years
without any further application OF
electric current beyond that which en-
ergizes them and sets them glowing
in the Tomadelli laboratory before
they are shipped out to their purchas-
ers.
Close secrecy has marked operations
OF the corporation so far, and 1t was
only Yesterday that the officials OF the
concern, a partial account OF their ac-
tivities having come out Sunday, were
willing to disclose to Tribune re-
porter the first complete story OF their
plans. Not only has the Office force IN
Jersey City hitherto made strenuous
attempts to hush the matter up, but
the CORPORATIONS red brick laboratory
in Bergen, n j., has been made, a
place of mystery to its neighbors by
its utter inaccessibility during the day
time and by the presence OF the two
armed guards who patrol it at night.
The profoundest silence has been en-
Joined on the small group OF stock
holders who are supplying the capital
for the preliminary work that VIII re-
suit, it is said in public demonstra-
ton of one of the automatic electric
shedders of bottled sunlight early IN
June, and its subsequent placing on
the market.
Self-Sustaining Incandescent.
A concise and non-technical descrlp-
ton of the lamp for which such revo-
lutionarv possibilities are asserted
would be. according to one OF the cor
poration's founders, that 1T is self
sustaining incandescent electric light
that will burn for long period OF
time without connection to any source
OF electric power other than itself. ne
invention of which it is a part includes
a dynamic apparatus for charging the
lamps by atmospheric induction at the
factory so that they can be shipped
out and guaranteed to remain lighted
for any desired period up
to several years"
Attached to each lamp, it is said,
will be a metallic device similar. 10 the
petals of a flower, which may be open
ed out or contracted at will as light
or darkness is desired, since, once
started, the lamp cannot be eXtlngulsh-
ed.
Another remarkable feature OF the
Tomadelli light, it is declared, that 1t
produces light without any waste OF
energy in generating heat, or, in 9th
er words, that it embodies the cold
light" for whose discovery electrical
and scientists have spent
great sums in experimentation. The
OF the wireless light IS
said to remain at about 10 degrees
above freezing point on the Fahren-
heit scale as compared with heat OF
100 degrees or more generated by
incahdescent bulb OF th4
ordinary type.
Discoverer an Italian.
Juan J. Tomadelli, Italian civil and
engineer, is credit
ed with the discovery that makes the
self-sustaining lamp possible. He IS
forty-four years old and was educated
at the University of Zurich, the Uni
versity of Turin and the Polytechnic
of Vienna.
