By Marconi Transatlantic Wireless Telegraph to The New York Times.
    BERLIN. Aug. 16.— Recent experiments, carried on jointly by the Zeppelin Company and the Wireless Telegraph Company, have now led to the construction in the Zeppelin depot at Frankfort-on-the-Main of a completely fitted station for wireless telegraphy, which is already in operation.
    It has a range of 600 kilometers, and the output is 8,000 volts. The plant is of the sounding spark type.
    It is understood that if the plant proves successful for communication with airships apparatus will be fitted to all Zeppelin dirigibles.
