Abstract

THE British Meteorological Office is making arrangements in conjunction with the Deutsche Seewarte, Hamburg, for an experiment in the transmission of meteorological reports by wireless telegraph. The intention is to make an experiment extending over a period of three months. It was anticipated that arrangements would be concluded in time for commencement with the New Year. It has been found necessary, however, to postpone the actual experiment until February. In the meantime the pre-parations for the transmission to the Meteorological Office of reports from the ships of the Allan, American, Anchor, Atlantic Transport, Canadian Pacific, Cunard, Dominion, Red Star, and White Star lines have been completed, so far as they can be without trial, and the agents of the Marconi Company in London have already notified their officials to proceed from January 1.
