The Telephone of the Future.
M. Kildischewsky, a Moscow electrician, claims to have made a very important discovery in the improvement of telephonic communication. The essential principle of the improvement is that distance makes no difference in the carriage of sound, or, at least, that a telephonic communication may be carried over distances as long as in the case of a telephonic current. In the presence of the chief of telegraphs and the departmental engineer of Moscow, on September 8, and using an ordinary telegraph wire M. Kildischewsky made a very successful test of his invention by communicating with Rostoff, on tbe Don, a distance of 890 miles, t >rdinary speech, music, and singing were heard with as perfect distinctness as if tha communication were made between two Moscow stations. M. Kildischewsky, it is said, intends to proceed to London nb test his discovery by the experiments with one of the Atlantic I cables between that city and New York.
