ARE THAT THE wireless telegraphy throughout tbs ' world, whereby a dangerous blow wrould be struck at vital interests of I the British Empire. This is the real meaning of the strenuous efforts now being made by n powerful syndicate of German capitalists to purchase 'the controlling financial Interest la the Marconi Wireless Telegraphy company, ns well as In all the dependent companies founded and controlled by the parent Marconi concern. MarThs capture of the world-wid- e coni organisation by the Germans would inevitably result la disastrous consequences from the point of view of imperial defense. The possession of the controlling financial Interest la tho Maroon! companies would mean the successful conclusion of n long and persistent German campaign lo wrest from Great Britain our predominance In wireless telegraphy, and to obtala for herself nil tho advantages which .this predominance confers. The Marconi company, which- - la a British conoern, has built up by the efforts of many years n world-wid- e system of communication by wireless telegraphy. The British government, the Italian government and Lloyd's Shipping Agency are at present all bound by contract to nao exclusively tbe Maroonl system. The Marconi apparatus has been fitted on 100 ateamihlpa belonging to various companies. The company possesses twenty-twwireless telegraphy stations In England, twenty in Italy, nineteen in Canada, seven in the United States, two In Egypt, one in Holland, and one in Montenegro, makstations on ing n total of seventy-tw- o land. This number doea not Include the numerous stations on land erected for Lloyd's Shipping Agency. The XIHITeglc importance of these stations Is incalculable. The Marconi company, to preserve Its own predominance, refuses to allow these stations to communicate with other stations where any rival system of wireless telegrephr is utilised. This Is disastrous to the German system of wireless telegraphy, known si Telefnnken, owned by the German Wireless Telegraphy cont-psn-- New York, Aug. 12.

Recently Austria the export iff pitchblende la quantity, sad as n reeultscleu tints experimenting with this newest eat and moss valuable of the elements have been at s loss to know where to go to get a permanent supply. Now, all eyes are directed to Alaska and Yukon, and grant hopes are held that not only will n permanent supply be obtained from the great white north, but also that Ibis supply will be in such from that the oust of producing, radium wlU he reduced from millions of dollars a pound to thousands or even hundreds. Then aluminium was first discovered Its cost was prohibitive, the process bv which it was pro1 dimed coating hundreds of dollars pound. But after years of expert--' meats, n process was discovered which placed aluminium in ths mark eat commercially. It. is hoped and believed by leading scientists that radium wlU also be produced in a short Urns commercially. and that thereby many cf the industrial processes of tho world today be greatly cheapened and simplified. Like so many other sdentiflo discoveries. the knowledge that radium' was present In the rocks of tho north came quite by accident. The society for scientific research, el which Mr.' Bertholet la n member, received sorer--, nl rocks from Alaska for n purpose entire! r disconnected ' wltk radium. One of these specimens happened to be laid near n photographic plate. When the plate waa developed there was found on it the outline of several Instruments thqt were near by at the time tbe rock end piste were In conjunction. This led to an Investf-- ' gallon which revealed the feet that In nil the rock from Alaska were traces of radium. Hence Henri Berth olets trip from Paris lo Fairbanks: Tho exact location of the mine from whoce specimens tbe radium was taken Is not for obvious reasons, an It is sufficient to say nounced. according to Mr. Bertholet that tho deposits are of such extent that will avoid the necessity in future science calling on the unwilling pltehlende deposits of the Austriando?-government repented "What win radium Mr. Bertholet.

The prospect cf cheaper radium means more to the edentlfio world, and ultimately to the industrial world than can be realised st present I have great hope of the prospects of the trip I am taking to Alaska.
