He traced the development of the art of telephony through its principal stages, showing how the Bell System in the United States has built up un til it now gives practically universal service, and its apparatus can carry the voice across the continent almost instantaneously.

He said that telephone experts believed the time is not far distant when it will be possible to telephone around the world.
