WASHINGTON, May 14. 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 "
