ONCE and say to him: II have been
stealing our ore: o much is it?"
Batterman claimed hat he did not
work by the month, but that the salary
OF $3.50 or $500 a month was merely a
basis for a per diem for work actually
done. He claimed that he rendered
bills for his service on hat basis. For
ono month his bill was for $3.50. He
said he never worked on Sundays IL
he could avoid Il. On cross-examina-
ton Batterman admitted that while In
the employ of the NJ. o.. +. company he
exercised supervision of leasers on the
G~lengarry. The first proposition he re-
ceived from the B. a NJ. company to
enter Its employ was in September.
1896. In November he wrote a letter
10 Mr.. Heinze. informing him that he
had received an offer from the receiver
OF the Butte & Boston to take charge
of the Butte & Boston and the Boston
e. Montana properties. The offer a
been made several months prior to the
date of the letter. At that time II be-
gan to dawn" on Batterman that
there might arise some differences be-
tween the NJ. q. p. company and the
Il. q NJ. over property rights.

TO remain with the company, and later
TO paw him $500 q Month as consulting
engineer. Bstternan said he was sus-
