SEND AEROGBAMS FROM LAKE COUNTY. (CoatlBned front we oae.) "Here is an aerogram from the 'Northland,' In midlake. Tke little son of Mrs. Jones of Hammond, who left Mackinac yesterday, was suddenly taken ill on the boat and she wants her husband to meet her at the landing at Indiana Harbor." This sounds like a pipe dream, even in view of the fact that the wireless telegraph 1st a demonstrated success, but it is a fact that the Indiana cities of Hammond, Gary, Valparaiso, Michigan City, South Bend, Laporte, Elkhart and a dozen others are to be proided with a wireless service in the near future and that an effort is to be made to compete with the Ire ser vice of such companies as the "Western Union and the Postal Telegraph. Air vs. the Wires. It is likely to be, the telegraph offfice on the main floor of the Ham mond building versus the aerograph of fice on the roof of the same structure. While wireless telegraphy has prov en a great success in providing intercommunication between ocean steamrs and the shore, and is extensively used by battle ships In their maneuvers, yet the promoters of the wireless telegraph, have been slow in adapting it to commercial uses on land. The announcement that stations are to be installed in the above-named cities, and several others in addition, will be of great interest to the people of this region. The completion of such servise is sure both to improve the service and reduce the cost of sending messages quickly over great dis tances. The company which will operate in Hammond, Gary and the other cities of the region, is the United Wireless Telegraph company. The service is promised for 1909, which means that work will have to begin. on the new system soon. Bis- Order Placed. The eastern operating department of the United Wireless Telegraph company announces the placing of an order, with the company's manufacturing department, for 250 complete sets of wire less instruments, all of which are soon to be installed at stations to be established in cities east of the Missis sippi river. This Is the largest order ever placed for wireless apparatus, and to manu facture, erect and put the stations in operation, will require an expenditure exceeding $500,000. The majority of the stations will be of only one or two k. w. capacity, with a range of from 100 to 300 miles, but some, which are Intended for long distance service will be of from five to twenty k. w. to trans mit wireless messages, under all con dltions of weather, for a range of from 500 to 2,000 miles overland and from 1,000 to 3,000 miles over water. The United Wireless Telegraph com pany's manufacturing department em bracing three complete factories, two of which are located in Jersey City, N. J., and the other In Seattle, Wash., have a combined capacity of over $1,000,000 worth of wireless apparatus per year. The larger part of the entire output of these factories has hereto fore been needed in filling orders from various governments and for the United company's marine department. It is probable, however, that with- an exten sion of this factory equipment, which will be made in the near future, the 250 sets will be completed and the new stations ready for opeiation in 1909. Erect Many Stations. The company proposes to erect sta tions not only in the states east of the Mississippi river, but also in the west ern states from the Pacific coast eastward, until they complete an Intercommunicating wireless system cover ing all important commercial, mining and manufacturing centers throughout the entire United States. Inasmuch as nearly all of such cities are connected with many smaller places by local tele phone systems, it is expected that the United Wireless Telegraph company will be in a position by the end of 1909, to receive and deliver messages at sev eral thousand points where the wire companies at present maintain offices. The operating department of the company is now organizing its forces to begin the selection of locations for these new stations. Contracts and leases will be entered Into and the advance work completed, ready for the Installation of th apparatus, as rapidly as suitable sites can be secured and satisfactory arrangements made. The following are "the cities in Indiana and Illinois In which will be located the wireless stations. While the location, of the wirless station in this city will not add to the membership of the linemen's union, it will be a convenience and a distinction to be placed" In the wireless circuit. List of Stations. Indiana Michigan City, Elkhart, South Bend, Hammond, Gary, "Valparaiso, Laporte, Goshen, Ft. Wayne, Logansport, Kokomo, Muncie, Anderson, Lafayette, Crawfordsville, Indianapolis, Connersvllle, Columbus, New Albany, Evansvllle, Vincennes and Terre Haute. Illinois Chicago, Evanston, Waukegan, Elgin, Aurora, Jollet, Kankakee, Danville, Rockford, Freeport, Dixon, Moline Rock Island, La Salle, Ottawa, Streator, Galesburg, Peoria, Bloomington, Decatur, Springfield, Quincy, Jacksonville, Alton, Belleville, East St. Louis, Mt Vernon -and Cairo. The announcement of the western operating department will be made in a short time, giving the location of stations contemplated in the states and territories west of the Mississippi river. As rapidly as thee station are completed they will be put into operation with the stations already established, of which there are now about four hundred, including sea coast stations and ships equipped. The business to be handled by this extensive wireless system includes commercial messages to and from boats and shore stations, 'over-sea cable business, commercial land service between cities, and the distribution of press matter, in competition with the wire systems.

(El LOOKS .-ABOVE THRONG AFTER INDIA SENATORSHIP

Correspondent Learns from Boss" Taggart's Ally Is Toga for Faithfulness (By Alfred Henry Lewis.) 1 Washington, D. C., Dec. 25. Today 1 1 met a gentleman from Indiana. I've been Interested in the story of Indiana since the day when that red orator, statesman,, warrior and hero, Tecumseh, went under, down to the time when John C. New got ready to "swear In" a brigade of United States marshals to make the polls peaceful for the republicans in 1892. and Phil Thompson, under Senator Gorman's campaign management, moved 5,000 rifles from the armory in Frankfort to Louisville, and organized" an equal number of "peace loving" democrats of Kentucky origin to oppose him. Judge Gresham, it will be remembered, capped the situatlonall inadvertently and saved the day from blood by refusing to "swear in" Mr. New's marshals on the ground that there had never been a moment in the Hoosler state when an unhampered citi zen couldn't vote as freely and as frequently? as bloweth the raw -north wind. Those were the ruder days in Indi ana. Now she goes in for literature and a higher life, and gives us such stars in the cultured heavens as. Sena tor Beverldge, David Graham Phillips, George Ade, Booth Tarklngton and "Ben Hur." Evasion Succeeds Force. Truly the art is still practiced in Indiana, but those strenuous elements of force, which stood out In the turbid days of Mr. New, have been supplanted by what eel-like evasions and sly dexterities mark the political school of such as Vice President Fairbanks. Tou would on any proposition, in order to locate Mr. Fairbanks, be obliged to draw oft the last drop of water In the pond and then poke about in the ooze. Meeting the gentleman from Indiana as aforesaid, talk turned to the senate fight now blazing Into heated being for the seat to be presently vacated by the republican, Mr. Hemenway. The legislature meeting January thanks to the manipulating "skulllduggery" of Mr. Fairbanks and others of his party fathers, who saw no good, but only ill, In Mr. Taft, is democratic. Thus it befalls that the toga of Mr. Hemenway, when it slips from his reluctant shoulders, will fall upon a democrat. In efforts at advance Identification of that soon-to-be-togaed party, I questioned the gentleman from Indiana. The harvest of my cross-examination is as follows, to-wit: --' Least worthy, but leading all the rest for that senatorshlp, comes Mr. .7 - iujiu matin and pacemaker in the race for the presidency. Kern Leads the Field. Mr. Kern was not only fully described, but per Incident thrown across the clothesline of politics and beaten like a carpet during the recent cam paign. The air was filled with the bad Inimical dust of his record, not to say his reputation. He is always as fit for the senate from every angle of public Interest as he Is for the rectorship of Trinity church, and now the chances indicate that he Is on the road to suc cess. He is the "attorney" for the Vanderbllts' Big Four, the friond of "Boss" 1,000,000 Points of useful Information. 45,000 Correct Names and Addresses. 500 Up-to-date Illustrations. L2a 3X5

Vice President Fairbanks

to Be Rewarded With to Powers That Be. Taggart, the French Lick "red devil" gambler; the choice of Mr. Bryan, and these forces are much more likely than any question of publio interest to have weight with the coming Indiana legislature, The politics of both Mr. Taggart and Mr. Fairbanks rest on the common foundation of money, the one being no republican, the other no democrat for the mere good of his health. Next to Mr. Kern in point of apparent chances stands Mr. John E. Lamb. Mr. Lamb, burly, ruddy, camped like Mr. Kern, Just on the sunrise side of sixty years, is a street railway lawyer of Terre Haute. He was a jolly butcher boy in his faraway youth and attracted the friendly, fottering eya of Senator Voorhees because of certain steak and cutlet favors which he rendered him. The tall Sycamore took Mr. Lamb from the butcher Bhop his nane so well became, and led him into polltics and. the law. Breweries Favorite Sons. Mr. Lamb was Mr. Bryan's campaign manager in Chicago during the late unpleasantness, in which role he performed no startling service failed utterly of destruction. Both Mr. Lamb and Mr. Kern are beloved of the liquor Interests and pose as the breweries' favorite sons, which last is no small Indiana matter during what seasons the churches go to sleep. Pressing hard upon the backs of Mr. Kern and Mr. Lamb, behold the portly form of Major G. V. Menzies. The major is round, thick, florid, the twin of the typical English country squire, and, if rudely shoved, he wouldn't fall; he'd roll. The gallant major thinks and acts in an old-fashioned way and smelled powder In the navy many, many years ago. From South Bend the Hon. Ben Shively notifies mankind that he has every frank Intention of becoming Mr. Hemenway's successor. Mr, Shively was in congress and contributed hugely to the victory of Air. Crisp when that great Georgian won the speakership of the house. Mr. Shively is tall, dark, dignified, silent, with hair of Iron gray. Considered from every coign of public weal, he is the best man running for the place. Which is why Mr. Shivelv won't t it. Standard Oil Must Be Heard. There Is such a money python as the Standard Oil of Indiana, but recently distinguished by being "ordered" out of Missouri, I believe, to say nothintr 01 me ceieDratlon natural to that $29- . 000.000 fine. Standard Ol -nrin something to say concerning the next senator from Indiana, just as it will concerning: the next senators from Hhln and New York, and no one is so foolish as to suppose it will say "Shively." It might be mentioned that all of the statesmen named Mr. Kern, Mr. Lamb, Mr. Menzies, Mr. Shively are Clceros of the slip-dash, slam-bang, impartial school which skins an opponent and the English language at one and the same time. The legislature will select one of these gentlemen, doubtless Mr. Kern. Mr. Shively is the best among them! Mr. Kern is the worst.
