In Honolulu, 4,800 miles from Ar- lington with receiver attuned to the wireless antennae of the Pearl Har- bor navy yard there, Mr. Espenchied, another telephone engineer, ‘was awaiting, too. ‘Webb, at Arlington began the test. The only transmitting instrument at the three stations was in his hands. Only the receiving instruments, ad- justed to the heads of those awaiting his voice in the Eiffel tower were at hand in Paris. To Honolulu he gave little thought, as previous demonstra- tions had already proved that wire and wireless could carry the voice from Arlington to Hawaii. He knew, however, that while Paris might hear him, he could not hear Paris, but would have to wait for the cable to confirm the ess of the experiment or tell of its failure. Shouts Into Mouthpiece, “Helo, ‘Shreeve he shouted into the mouthpiece. ‘“Hello, ‘Shreeve’.” He paused a few seconds; then began to count: “One, two, three, four; one, two, three, four.” The jumble of meaningless figures was repeated sev- eral times and next came the enuncia- tion of several test sentences. These were repeated, too. More counting, and finally the farewell, three times: “Good-bye, Shreeve!” A pause, “Good-bye, Shreeve!” “Good-bye,” Shreeve!” Quickly the telephone was unhitched from the sending appartusand Webb, after looking over his apparatus went home to bed. Sometime today, he thought, a cable message might come through from Paris, telling whether the whole thing was a fizzle or the opening of a new era in trans-Atlan- tic communication. Expected Message Arrives, Late yesterday afternoon the expect- ed message came. It was addressed to the company here and said that Webb's “Hellos” and ‘“‘Good-byes’” had been distinctly heard by the engineers and French army officers in Parls, and that portions of his test sentences also had been picked up. At about the same time there came a message from Honolulu saying that Webb's talk had been understood in full by the receiv- ing engineer there. In telling of the tests. which result- ed in the human voice spanning, by land wires and wireless, one-third the circumference of the world, Mr, Carty said over the telephone last night that he thought the day was mnot many vears distant when New York could speak by telephone with Tokio, and that it was his belief that the human voice could be made to carry entirely around the world by wireless. Much experimental work will have to be done yet, however, he said, before telephone communication across the Atlantic becomes an everyday affair of commercial life. New Chapter In Experiment. The announcement that speech has actually been transmitted from Ar- lington to observers stationed at the Eiffel Tower, Paris, marks the con- clusion of another chapter in tht experiment undertaken by the Ameri- can Telephone and Telegraph com- pany. When Mr. Carty’s engineers commenced work on the long distance wireless telephone experiments, ob- servers with receiving apparatus were sent not only to Panama, San Diego, Mare Island and Honolulu, but also two engineers, Mr. H. R. Shreeve and Mr. A, M. Curtls, were sent to Paris. Through the courtesy of the lrench government, limited facilities for lis- tening at . the Kiffel Tower station were placed at their disposal Full appreciation of the interest and ex treme courtesy of the French govern- ent can be understood when the great valie of the Eiffel Tower station for military *purposes is remembered. Due to the military necessities, the amount of time available for wireless telephone experiments was so limited as to constitute a serious handicap to a speedy completion of the work. Added to this was the handicap result- ing from the fact that all regular communication between Mr. Shreeve A situation somewhat unusual de- veloped in police court this morning when Jeremian Derry, arrested for drunkenness by Officer Sharpe, in- formed the court that he was an em- ployee of Safety Commissioner Frank H. Holmes, who is one of the trium- verate whose duty it is to look after the police department. Derry said he has ' been employed by Mr. Holmes since August 14, com- ing here from New Haven. He had never before been arrested, ‘e said, and told the judge he was well ac- quainted with all the police and de- tecives in New Haven, reciting a list of their names. Judgement was sus- pended by Judge James T. Meskill Mike Rososky was arrested at 12:30 o’clock this morning in the rear of the New Britain Machine company by Officers Souney and Kerin for drunk- enness and breach of the peace. He had a black eye and a cut head and told the court he had been assaulted by a stranger because he could not furnish him with a cigarette paper.
