' WIRELESS'TELEPHONES AT SEA." , D , r ' Lee;Fgrest,.whoso radio-telephone has bcei tested by tho .navies of Great Britain,. America and Italy, announced recently at a dinner givei by Ellsworth Company, which recehtlfinanced tho Great': Lakes Radio-telephone Com pany, that.he.has practically perfected a systcii of wireless transmission which, he says, will re volutionise tho present methods of communico tion and make them by comparison seem rud; raontary.. Dr. Forest says that his apparatu does away with tho syark aa used now, and min' misos the chance of interruption of the messag< He .expects to attain a speed of 4000 words a hour, as compared with 2400, which, he declare! hi about tho limit of a first-class Morse operatoi The. new apparatus, he said, is tb be U6cd in coi Motion with the installation of tho wireless tele phono along the Atlantic coast for coaster chiefly, but with a prophet'a vision and the hel of 'Mr. Marconi's.genius ho Eees the day rapid! approaching when operas will be heard by win loss telophone in mid-Atlantic, and advertiei monts transmitted from land for publication i a ships newspaper. Dr. Forest states-that h has succeeded in combining: the wireless teli graph'and telephone in ono instrument, and ; is noiseless and can be operated at a much lowe voltage than tho present system. In discussin the alleged' advantage of the wireless telephor over tho telegraph, Br. Forest said that the toll phono is so simple in operation that any ship officer, can understand it. Hβ pointed out the If Jack Binns.'the wireless operator, had bee killed in the Republic collision with the Floridi iu which the wireless-houso was wrecked, ther would have been no one else on the ship to sen out calls for help, and a disaster would hav beon probable, but with the wireless telephon almost anybody could stop Into the breach.
