Device Detects Icebergs and Rocks

A Danish inventor, Mr. Ellehamer, has discovered a method by which a vessel at sea may ascertain the presence of either an iceberg or rock within a distance of 1,200 yards, even in fog or darkness. The device reveals both the size and position of the object. The inventor says he will not sell out to any one nation, but will permit any steamship company that so desires to have the benefit of what he has accomplished.
