Railophone invention eyed to prevent railway wrecks
London reports that Von Krimer and Professor Napp will demo a railophone claimed to render railway derailments nearly impossible. The device enables wireless telephony with trains in motion, relaying weak signals to trigger bells, brakes, or automatic stop. British and American rail interests, plus government officials, show keen curiosity about adoption. A separate note mentions Thompson, 80, married thrice, meeting his wife at a seance thirty years ago.
