NEW WIRELESS SERVICE
ACROSS THE ATLANTIC. CABLE COMPANY’S PROPOSAL. fPres* Association—By Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, January 28. (Received Jan. 29, at 5.5 p.m.) The Morning Post says' that the news that the Commercial Cable Company proposes to operate a wireless service between America and Europe comes as a bombshell in the middle of the Wireless Conference sitting in London. Util further details are known, experts are of the opinion that it will be very difficult for the Commercial Company to run a transatlantic wireless service without infringing the Marconi patent. Marconis operate the transatlantic beam system under a post office license, the terms of which are not revealed, but a postal official states that the license does not preclude another company from establishing a licensed station in Britain. Experts believe that it will take two years to modernise the Commercial Company’s radio station on Long Island.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
