PROGRESS IN MANY COUNTRIES. SURPRISING GERMAN RESULTS. (Prea* AwooiaUon—By Telegraph Copyright ) LONDON, November 13. While Britain is cautiously experimenting with wireless telephony, keeping the results secret, European institutions are making considerable progress. Holland has successfully conversed with the Dutch East Indies, suggesting that communication with Australia ir, brought definitely nearer. Surprising results are revealed by a German Post Office report of experiments from the Nordreich station and German ships, one of which, the Columbus, conversed with another liner 2500 miles distant. Several erlin shipping offices have talked to ships 200 miles away. The authorities are fitting out an experimental ship, the Hoexter, which will cruise the North Sea for the purpose of further research. It is predicted that the offices will soon be talking from Berlin to ships far in the Atlantic.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
