Sub. Spec. Durb of Sub attained, since, however great the distance of such transmission, and however feeble or attenuated the impulses recai ved, enough energy may be accumulated from them by storing up the energy of succeeding impulses for a sufficient interval of time, to render the sudden liberation of it highly effective in operating a receiver. In this way receivers of a variety of forms may be made to respond effectively to impulses too feeble to be detected or to be made to produce any sensible effect in any other way of which I am aware, a result of great value in various applications to practical use. I do not clain harain an apparatus by means of which the above described method is or may be practiced, either in the special form herein shown or in other forms which are possible, having made claims to such apparatus in another application, Serial No. 729,812, filed September 8, 1899, as a division of the present case. What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by letters patent is:- 1. The method herein described of intens ifying and utilizing electrical disturbances or effects, transmitted through the natural media to a distant receiving station, which consists in charging a condenser for succeeding and predetermined periods of time with energy derived from such effects or disturbances, and using the accumulated potential energy so obtained to operate a receiving device. cances or effects, transmitted 2.
