The Chronicle says a part of the proceeds of the sale of the new early as a service in for steam its suburban wires which were found on the fsland when Spain the place after the war perators were ousted and it in thelr pla now operating the lines and do it it pay other than thefr salaries. F at that, however {8 too’ expensive owing to the all amount of commercial business and the expense of replacivg wires which have been blown down by cyclones. In speaking of the lines from a practical standpoint General Greely says that if the military advantages of the wires are con- sidered as offset by the pay, subsisten of the men of the signal corps, the normal receipts of the lines when under military control will amount to $12,000 annually and this will within a year or two to about $1%,000, amount entirely inadequate for the main tenance and operation of the lines by a paid civillan force. In regard to the ulti- disposition of the telegraph lin General Greely says that ourses are open First, to the lines by the postoffice {n the manner done evacuatec 1 the gnal 1 Spanish ' men are hey gular service st ope- rate States by stock will be devoted to this purpose <»m~ cers of t road have en working or several years attempting to devise a prac- tical electrical stem for service, The ove impracticable by reason trafc and the third rail considored dangerous. It is sal triclans have now devised a plar a third rail and protecting it be done by covering the rall, connection with the train being obtained through a slot similar to the cable and underground electric systems Great benefits would accrue to the Cen- tral by changing to the electric system. It would effect, it s sald, n saving of 75 per cent /n operating expenses, would ble faster time and would forever do away with practically all of the smoke nuisance on the lake front of Chicago The transition from steam to electricity on suburban traffic is one of the great prob- lems confronting managers of steam roads in the east. These ltnes present with thelr crowdod trafMc of short-haul passengers, thelr frequent trains and their many stop $ing places conditions that are at eary for the electric motor train and very dificult for the steam locomative. Al ready much of the profitable business that was once transportation of suburban passengers has gone to the trolley car and many of rallroads having large suburban systems realize that they must, in effect, adopt tha trolley car on their lines or lose the best part of this business Pocket Wireless Telegraph, It in the future an electric bell concealed sbout the person of a man in the street is heard to ring and he draws from his pocket a small case, listens to it and then hur- ries off, it must not hastily be assumed that he is mad, says the London Tele graph. The probability will be that he has Just recelved a message by wireless tel- egruphy. In wireless telegraphy there are several Richmonds in the field. Best known 18, of course, Marconl's system, But Sir William Preece described the British assoclation a system which he claims be both ecarlier and simpler and which may be used for telephony as well as tele- graphy. At the Cafe Chantant of the Crys al Palace recently there was an exhibi- tlon of Mr. Rosenberg's system. The chiet point of difference between this and Mar- coni's method Is in a slight but important alteration in the comstruction of the herer, which arrests, as they travel through the air, the Hertzian waves on which all wircless telegraphy depends Otherwise the apparatus is much the same Mr. Rosenberg uses an induction coil, sup- plied with electricity from an accumulator A Morse keyboard is fitted to enable hi to make or break the current at will and the message is sent as usual by méans of an oscillator. It is taken at the re quired spot by an instrument containing the coherer, a small brass tube filled with nickel flings and a receiver, from which tho mestage may be printed on a tape in the usual way. Mr. Resenberg further claims that he has provided a practical system which is clear of Marconi's patents and which can be much cheaper. The apparatus used has no vertical poles and he main tains that he can telegraph two miles With poles he can send messages forty miles and s engaged in an automatic re peating,device which shall enable them to be sent on indefinitely. But in the course of conversation he mentioned an interest ing fact When leaves his office to lunch In a restaurant 200 yards off he takes with him the little box containing the re celving apparatus. This he sets on the tatle beside him and !f the bell rings he knows that he is wanted at the office, even though his clerks might not be aware where he was, and he can recelve a me sage from them. Whether this introduces & new boon or a new terror to life cannot be hastily decided. It is not too much to suppose that before long the receiving ap- paratus might be improved and reduced in size, 80 that a man could easily carry it in his pocket, and the range of the message may be Increased up to say half a dozen miles. Then the business man may carry his receiver about with him and be in touch with his office all day. Again, the system would be very useful for issuing ipstructions to employes and others away from headquarters.

General Greely in his report gives a brief outline of the history of both indus tries on the island, showing that while the frst steps towards the instllation of a telegraph line were taken in 1860, no con- struction was done until 1872, and it was not until two years later that San Juan ‘was connected with the seven different de partments of the island, and about $00 miles of wire were in use.

Record Here is a brief description telegraphone for receiving and recording telephone messages: The steel band on which the records are made is wound on four rollers arranged in a rectangle and the winding is so arranged that the band is | continuous and for a reproduction of the | record it is not necessary to reverse the band and start it again, but simply to let it run on. and reproducing magnets are parallel to the breadth of the band and not perpendic- ular to its surface. They are made touch it. For the guidance of the wires four brass combs are mounted near the rollers. The whole apparatus is driven by a one-sixteenth horse-power electromotor, which imparts to the band a velocity of three metres per second. The duration of speech fs two minutes.
