346 condenser, charging a condenser with the impulses so selected or directed, and discharging the accumulated potential energy so obtained into, or through a receiving device at arbitrary intervals of time. 9. The method hereinbefore described of transmitting signals or intelligence, which consists in producing at the sending station arbitrarily varied or intermitted disturoances or effects, transmitting such disturbances or effects through the natural media to a receiving station, utilizing energy derived from such disturbances or effects at the receiving station to charge a condenser and using the accumulated potential energy so obtained to operate a receiving device. 10. The me thod hereinbefore described of transitting signals er intelligence, which consists in producing at the sending station arbitrarily varied electrical disturbancas or effects, transmitting such disturbancos or effects through the natural media to a receiving station, utilizing the energy derived from such disturbances or effects at the receiving station to charge a condenser, and using the accumulated potential energy so obtained to operate a receiver.
