New York, Oct. 1.—Wireless tel- ephony from the Atlantic seaboard to Hawaii—a distance of 4,600 miles— is an accomplished fact. By the spe- cial wireless telephone developments which have been made by the engi- neers of the American Telephone and Telegraph company and of the West- ern Electric company, speech was transmitted from Washington to a wireless station near Honolulu. Second Experiment. If anything further was needed to show the wonderful capacity of these new discoveries, this last triumph, coming but a few hours after Mr. Vail, the president of the company, had talked by wireless from Wash- ington to Mr. Carty, its chief engi- mneer, located at Mare Island, near San Francisco, is conclusive. The distance over which this com- munication was held was greater than the distance from New York to London, New York to Paris or from New York to many other impotant points, such as Rome, Vienna and Berlin. Trans-Atlantic Service. That trans-Atlantic wireless tele- phone communication is assured as soon as ‘the disturbed conditions in Europe will permit of tests from this country to there is obvious, when it is remembered that all scientists agree on the fact that it is much more difficult to send wireless telephone communication across land than cross water.

Dick of Forest church, Min- neapolis, introduced a resolution sign- ed by some of the most influential members of the conference, repudia- ting the claim of the saloon forces of Minneapolis that the presumed rela- tion of John A. Patten of Chattanoo- ga, Tenn., with official Methodism commits the M. E. church to a posi- tion of insincerity because of Mr. Patten‘s connection with the Wine of Cardui company. The resolution was amended to deny the imputation that Mr. Patten had any official relation to the M. E. church, he having resigned all such positions immediately upon litigation being instituted against him, and was passed after a most spirited debate engaged in by many of the leaders of the conference. FARMERS EAGER FOR RECIPROCITY Winnipeg, Oct. 1.—Farmers of the Canadian west are unanimous that the duty of 25 cents a bushel on wheat going to the United States should come off, but in the opinion they stand alone outside of the sup- port they are receiving from repre- sentatives.of United States grain and milling firms on the grain exchange. The Canadian millers are and the Canadian railway companies are bit- terly opposed to it. The grain trade is almost unanimous against it and the present Canadian government, with its high tariff policy, and with big war expenditures to face, will not likely think of taking off any duties. But the farmers have a tremen- dous crop. of wheat on their hands and they intend to let it go as soon as possible. The price at preseng is but 70 cents to the farmer. The amount going over the line is grow- ing gradually less as the price of Minneapolis -and Duluth dgops nearer to the Canadian figure. But there is still a difference in favor of the | United States market of from 10 to 12 cents over the quotation at Fort William. Canadian wheat has been crossing the line for Minneapolis and Duluth mills. One day recently the Great Northern transported 250,000 bushels, on every bushel of which, of course, the 25 cents duty was paid. CLOQUET MEN TO MAKE SOIL SURVEY Cloquet, Minn., Oct. 1.—Chief Forester W. H. Kenety and Assistant Forester G. H. Wiggins of the Clo- quet forest, the state experimental reforestry tract, are on a six weeks’ trip through the northern part of the state, to make a soil survey of state lands in St. Louis, Cook, Lake and Koochiching counties. This sur- vey will be made to determine the adaptability of the various tracts for reforestration, especially as re- gards the growing of spruce, which is used in the manufacture of print paper, and which owing to its more rapid growth gives quicker returns than pine. While away they will also make arrangements with settlers and homesteaders for the gathering of a quantity of seeds of the conifer- ous. trees of the north woods.
