A New Record in Wireless Telegraphy

We have already commented in these columns on the almost incredible accomplishments in long-distance wireless telegraphy; but now, according to the New York Times of November 30, a new record has been made:—
What is said to be a record in radio transmission was established today, when an operator for the Federal Wireless Telegraph Company at Honolulu picked up messages being transmitted from Nauen, Prussia, to Tuckerton, N. J., approximately 9,000 miles away. The German operator was sending war dispatches, and the dots and dashes registered so clearly in the radio station here that the eavesdropper had no difficulty in “copying the report.”
