Use Of Wireless
From Our Own Correspondent
Rabaul, Aug. 1.
TNTERESTING tests with wireless tele phony were carried out recently by the Administrator, in the Bougainville dis trict. Leaving Rabaul in the Nereus, Gen eral McNicoll kept a schedule with two stations in Rabaul by telephone and Morse during the whole trip.
The Nereus rendered assistance to the Government schooner Eros (previously reported to have been wrecked), which had gone to the rescue of another Gov ernment ship, the Wandera. The latter vessel struck a reef near Lolabau Island and had to be abandoned.
