Improvement in Wireless Telegraphy

The despatches state that a very important improvement in wireless telegraphy has recently been invented. One of the big European telegraph companies has taken it up, and a thoro test is now being made. Stations are in preparation to send messages from London to France, and if successful, immediately following this a station will be erected in Washington, and a regular transatlantic service established. The improved device "consists in being able to control a continuous wave, as compared with intermittent waves by the present system." It is also much speedier, making possible the sending of about 200 words a minute.
