Great Harrington Special to Philadel phia Record. Great Barringrton, Mass., Oct, 15. Greater stride toward absolute per fection in the transmission of electrical messages may be possible in the next year than have been made in trie past 30 year, by mean of the Invention Just announced . by Stephen pudley Field, nephew of the Atlantic cable projector, at his Stockbrldge laboratory. Mr. Field declare that by the use of hi new amplifier, the speed of ocean cabling may be doubled. Ita radius of action made, unllmlied, and that wire less telegraphy may.be at once brought to commercial practicability. "I can hardly pnopnesy tnat my am plifier will revolutionise electrical mes sage transmission," said Mr. Field to day, "but it will moke It almost a easy to send a message from London to Shanghai, more than 10,000 miles, as to send It from jgtockbrldge to Great Barrios-ton.' less than ten miles. The amplifier records variations in current only and with it the cable may be used even If the electrical strength should vary from its unit to Its hundredth part. The amplifier works the same wlth; one one-hundred-thousandth of an am pere as with, a one-thousandth am pere current. With a bit of perfecting, I do not doubt I could combine it to Include telephone systems aa well. I believe it perfectly possible that by the use of an Improved amplifier one would be able to talk over the telephone round the wordld. J! It be possible to send photographs by telegraphy from Philadelphia to New York the Amplifier will permit it from" New -York around the world. The same with seeing by telephone. If that is ever possible for a short distance the amplifier will make tt perfect throughout Hie earth. "Tne next time searcn is made ror the North Pole a wireless telegraphy outfit should be taken along attuned to one at the supply point Then. by means of an amplifier, even If the explorers should get so far away that their electrical waves will not spread Intelligently to the base, the amplifier will pick out and write down all their messages."
