born In Bologna, Italy, April rs. 1874
his mother was Irish, while his father
was of family whose mechanical
ability was marked. After an edu-

young man Interested himself In the
problem of wireless telegraphy, start
Ing his research In 1895. He went to
England and in 1896 took out the first
patent ever granted for a practical
system of wireless telegraphy, by the
use of electric waves. His early ex-
periments In England were made at
WeslDourne Park. Shortly afterward
Marconi saw w. H. Preece and
at his request made some experiments
for officials of the postoffiee. Some
further experiments We're made In
May, 1897, in the Bristol channel,
wireless communication being estab-
listed between Lavernock and Brean
Down, distance of nine miles.
On the invitation of the Italian
government Marconi afterward went
to Spezia where land station was
erected, which was kept in constant
communication with two Italian bat
tleships working from a distance of
IL miles. For this success the Ital-
ian government conferred upon Mar
conf the honor Of knighthood. After
a return to England further expert
ments were conducted and on July 20,
1897, the first radio company was
formed and two permanent stations
erected. In 1893 wireless reports of
yacht races In Kingston were made
and proved the usefulness and adapt

tween the South Foreland lighthouse
and lighthouse on the south coast.
In 1899 Marconi read paper on
wireless Telegraphy" before the In
stitution of Electrical Engineers in
London.
Early in 1901 Geographic commu-
nication was established between two
points more than 250 miles distant
and at the end of that year Marconi
transmitted signals from Poldhu, in
Cornwall to st. Johns. Newfoundland.
In 1902 he received on board the
steamship Philadelphia in the pres
ence of the officers. good messages
on the tape when at a distance of
over 1900 miles from the transmit
ting station and signals at over 1000
miles. In December. 1902, the station
established at Cape Breton, Nova
Scotia, under a contract with the Ca
madam government for transatlantic
wireless telegraphy, was put into
communication with the Cornwall sta
ton at Poldhu and inaugural messages
were transmitted TO the King OF
England, the King of Italy and to
the London Times. In October, 1903,
the steamship Lucania published
daily wireless bulletin from messages
received from the Marconi stations.
A powerful station at Ciifden on the
west coast of Ireland was opened
early in 1907 for the establishment
of commercial relations with the
American continent. at Glace Bay.

CABINET IN A CRISIS.

When the Secretary Of Commerce
submitted to the railway executives
the proposal for surrender which they
SO promptly and wisely rejected by
unanimous vote, he said that in max
ing 1t the President had the unani-
nous Endorsement OF the Cabinet. The
fact that Secretary Hoover acted as
President Harding's representative
naturally conveyed the impression
that to Mr.. Hoover Mr.. Harding had
looked primarily for advice, and. In
some quarters the Harding Hoover
proposal. Its hyphenated name, how
ever. did net hide Its melancholy
significance.
What will especially pain and sur
prise the great army OF the admins
tration's we'll wishers is that the
cabinet, without exception, according
to Secretary Hoover, should have
sanctioned such q proposal as the
President signed and his Secretary OF
Commerce delivered. What has the
Secretary OF State to say In defense
OF his position and In the light of his
excoriation OF President Wilson for the
Adamson Law surrender six years
ago? What has the Secretary OF the
Treasury to say? What has the Sec
rotary Of War to say? Why are they
silent if Whey are so enthusiastic In
their support Of the pusillanimous pro-
posal which the railway executives
have rejected and the people and their
press are condemning?
