Admiral Brad ford, chief of the naval bureau of equip mcnt, today gave out tho following extract from tho renort of the board which has Investigated tho question of transmitting messages by wireless telegraphy: 'From the examination ot the subject, as outlined In the orders of the department, the board makes tho following recommen dations: -1. That the use ot homing pigeons be discontinued as soon as wireless tele graphy Is Introduced Into the navy. "2. That, pending such action, no new pigeon cotes be established, "3. That wtroleas, telegraphy bo adopted by the navy for transmission of messages between distant points. "Referring to the Inst recommendation the board Ih of the opinion that a high degreo of special electrical training Is demanded for the successful operation ot any system of wireless telegru'phy, nnd It thereforo suggests as necessary tho estab lishment of two stations, suttlclently far removed from each other, for tho training of ofllcers nnd men. In Its opinion this requirement would be best met by the establishment of such stations at the navy yard, Washington, and tho naval academy. Annapolis. If wireless telegraphy fullllls what now seem to bo Its possibilities tha cadets should bo thoroughly trained In It. "As the Investigation made by this board Is not technical, there being no apparatus of any kind ready for test, but general In Us character, such partlnl examinations as outlined above would not chnnge the rec ommendations already made. "The selection of any special system ot wireless telegraphy Is, In tho opinion of tho board, largely a matter of business detail. 'if, for any reason, any competitive; lest of different systems Is thought dcslrablo tho board recommends, In view of tho fact that the Improved Marconi apparatus will not be available for several months, and that Improvement In any other systems may occur In that Interval, that It be made only after due notice and preparation there for and by a special beard of experts ap pointed for the purpose " CALLS CRIMINALS IMBECILES Or.
