"WIRELESS” DIRECT TO AMERICA.

Telegraphing from Copenhagen oil March 6th, tho correspondent of the Daily Mail said: —I had to-day an

interview with the Danish inventor, M. Vladimar Poulsen. His now wireless system, lie is based on “singing” electi'ic waves. “I have to keep my latest experiments as secret as possible,” he said, “in consequence of severe competition and the efforts of a German syndicate to learn the details of my systpm. In the course of the next month iny experiments will be completed, and we shall

have established direct wireless communication with America from our trial station at Lyngby (five miles from Copenhagen). Our new masts arc already erected at Lyngby, and ill America, but we have not quite finished the installation of the apparatus on both sides of the Atlantic. It is quite true that the experiments already made have resulted in communication with America. The difference between the spark telegraph and my system is that the spark method loses power and energy over long distances. My electric waves sing through the world continually, and nothing dan stop them. “I commenced experiments over a distance of forty miles with complete success. Then I tried my waves oyer a distance of 190 miles, meeting with the same success, even when I increased the distance to 380 and 760 miles. At the present time I have communicated satisfactorily over a distance even greater than that between Denmark and America.”
