WIRELESS DEVELOPMENT. AMAZEMENT AT AUSTRALIA. (Beceived 2 p.m.) LONDON, October 29. Signer Marconi has handed the whole of the Dominions' wireless traffic to the Post Office, which is receiving messages for Australia and New Zealand, per wireless to Montreal thence via the Pacific cable. Matter lodged at Press rate iv Loudon is now being handled by sub-editors at Montreal in less than half an hour. The wireless authorities here are most surprised at the report from the Australian Postmaster-General that the secretary, Mr, Brown, suggested that the beam service was doomed to failure. The British Post Office expresses amazement at the success and possibilities of the system, pointing out the unexpectedly rapid transmission to Canada, while difficulties like the Aurora Borealis are not present in the Australian service.
