left them in the open air, has taken the starch

The Telephone.

WASHINGTON. November H. The
hearing in the telephone cases was re-
sumed before the Secretary of the In
terror to-day, Mr.. Giants, for the citizens
of Memphis, read long list of the aft
davits and authorities that he inten-
ded TO put in evidence, tending to show
that Bell was not the original inventor
of the telephone. Among the papers
was a communication from Acting At
GoOde, expressing the
opinion that Reiss was the inventor Of
the telephone and that Bells patent had
been irregularly issued, justifying,
in bis opinion, the beginning of a
suit by the United States to set
the patent aside. A number of
telephone models. originals and repro
were next produced. and their
mode of operating was described by an
expert. A number of affidavits made
by the inventors and experts were read
at length, one by Edison, wherein he
states that bis carbon telephone is now
used altogether by the Bell Company;
that he had not heard of Bells expert
ments when he (EdisOn) invented his
but had read an account of
Reiss invention.
