gus testimony which Reynolds was to
learn before going on the witness stand.
The statement was typewriter and
backed in legal form, but was not writ
ten by the writer of the letter, because
in the typewriter statement several
corrections had baen made with pen
in handwriting which differed from that
in Reynolds letter. Coroner Hawkins
said: 'I have turned this letter over to
the police for investigation. 1t looks
like hoax, but it is possible that Dur
rant or some one connected with the de-
fense may have prepared this story as
Reynolds says. The statement which
accompanied the letter shows careful
work, and was no doubt prepared by
the case. II Durrant could prove what
is stated in the document, he would go
forth free man."
The substance of Reynolds type-writ-
ten statement was that he had known
Durrant for ten years; that he had met
him on the evening of April 18th, the
night Minnie Williams was murdered.
The statement says he met him on How
ard street. where they talked some time.
In friendly scuffle Durrant was unin-
tentionally thrown to the ground. Dur
rant said he was sorry he had ant dirt
on his clothes, as he had got to 60 to a
party where there would be ladies pres
ent. Durrant then left for DR.. Vcgel's
house, and the witness, looking at the
clock, noticed it was IL 80.

Telephone Decision.
San Francisco Call, Oct. 25.


Two suits were filed in the United
States circuit court on the 23d inst by
the Western Electric Company OF
Chicago, against the Capital Telephone
Company of Sacramento, with which
corporation Frederick Cox, president OF
the California Bank OF Sacramento, and
w. E. Gerber, also of the California
bank, are associated as defendants.
| One of the suits filed is for the in
Engagements of patents on switch board
apparatus and Office machinery, which
are held by the Chicago corporation, and
the other on the telephones and manner
of wiring. The patents held by the
regular telephone company and the
Western Electric Company cover every
conceivable part of the sound trans
mitter, thereby making it almost i'm
possible for a new concern to successfully
operate a telephone circuit.
Now that the Chicago firm has deter
mined that an injunction shall be placed
upon the home company, it will proba-
bly, put stop to the subscription for
stock in the latter organization and may
eventually lead to a number of suits
against parties who have been using
these telephones, as the revised statute
brought strictly states that not only the
manufacturer but the seller and user are
each personally liable for infringement
by using patented article without the
consent of the patentee.
1t is alleged that Messrs. Cox and
Gerber, not being content with being
the instigators of the Capital Company,
have organized another telephone COM
pany throughout the state, and as sew
eral other minor companies are organiz-
ing the Western Electric Company feels
that it is being imposed upon, and says
that it is going to show beyond a doubt
that these companies cannot legally
exist.
Attorney George F. Barton, who rep
resents the Chicago corporation, was in
the city few days ago and some ad-
vanced the opinion that if the petition
of his client was sustained it would be
almost an impossibility for the Sacra-
mento firm to successfully operate tel
ephone line before the year 1900, as none
of the patents held by them will expire
before that time.
At least 100000 was subscribed by
business men of Sacramento to the stock
of the new company before it was sus-
pected that the question of patent rights
would be raised, and it will be quite a
hardship to many if they are forced to
discontinue the service. o29d2t,

Whittier's BoyhoOG.

To illustrate the fact that children suf
fer intensely from causes which their cid
ers regard as trivial and which they them
selves are inclined 10 laugh at in later lif,
Mr. Whittier once told this story Of hi
boyhood to friend: It was at an ancieul
hillside farnyard near Haverhill. IL
ascending this hill his father was in the
habit of relieving his horse by walking,
and Greenleaf was expected to walk also.
1t was q terrible trial to the boy, for 8
gander would begin his warlike threats as
soon rs he saw him, and in later life
Whittier declared he could have marched
up to hostile battery without such !;
sinking of the heart as he felt whenever
he approached this harmless but noisy
fowl. If he had dared to tell his father OF
his agony of dread, he could have remained
safely in the carriage. But tho fear of be
ing laughed at prevailed ever every otba'
consideration. Mr.. Whittier thought this
was the experience Of many children, and
that parents should treat their apparently
petty troubles with more seriousness than
is their custom.
