Wireless tests on Alton Limited enable train telegrams
Wireless telegrams were tested on the Alton limited between Chicago and St Louis at sixty miles an hour. President Felton approves equipping all passenger trains for messaging to improve safety and convenience. A relay at Springfield will handle messages, with additional stations planned. Separately, Illinois Central interurban trains will ban passes except for officers on business, aligning with standard practice.
