Dictated by Section N N on this map?"
The question was objected to on the
ground that it was not proper cross-ex-
animation.
The objection was sustained.
The map of crOss-section N NJ was
then formally offered in evidence as de-
PENDANTS exhibit No. 2 for Identification
as one having been made by Mr.. Macfar-
lane and used at the former trial, but it
met with six objections, one Of which
was because the offer was entirely in
definite.
The objection was sustained.
Another map, marked K X was also
by Mr.. Patterson and SUBJ
mltted to Mr.. M~acfarlane with the re-
quest that he say whether it was prac-
tically identical with one marked cross
section A. prepared for use in this trial.
Mr.. Macfarlane said it was practically
the same. He was then asked how wide
the apex of the vein was at this section,
but the question met with an objection
and the court sustained it.
An exception was taken.
DO you recall the circumstance, dur
ing the former trial, of Mr.. Forbis plac-
ing a strip of paper over a map upon
which the lines of veins were drawn, and
asking you to mark with a pencil the
veins you claimed at that time existed
and which the map re~presented?" asked
Mr.. Patterson.
Il have only a faint recollection Of
it,"
D o recall marking on PLAINTIFFS
Exhibit 4 the width of the vein at the
70O-foot level?'
NO, sir; l have no recollection of it."
I'h1s about finished the cross-examina-
tlon ana the witness was asked some di-
rect questions, answers to which were
Illustrated by the use of the model.
Asked why some Of the levels of the
Rarus showed five and silk ore bodies,
while others did not nave so many, Mr..
Macfarlane said it was because those
showing, a lesser number had not been
sufficiently developed; and the vein
within the lines of the Pennsylvania had
not been greatly developed because of
the service Of an order Of Injunction.
The 650-foot level of the Johnstown, he
sad, was connected with the $50 level
Dy means OF a raise on the vein.
Mr.. AacFarlane," said Mr.. Mediation.
Of ore deposits, what is your
OPINION as to when n how the ore de-
posts occurred in those fsures?'
The question was objected to and srs-
tanned.
state what Importance you attach to
the a3ices Of the discovery vein of the
YOUNGSTOWN, Rarus and North conencting
vein with the vein with reference to their
VEN with the West portion Of the vein
with reference to their being Individual
VEINS or embraced in one Lode"
An objection to the question was made
and sustained.
Mr.. MacFarlane detailed a trip he and
Mr.. Wiley had made over the ground in
dlspute and what they had found in the
way of groupings and mineral at GER
tam points. He exhibited some Of the
11oat. and defined the term zone as APP
piled to mineral formations. He had first
heard the word used IN a suit in 1897, at
which time he thought it applicable to
existing conditions. It had been used in
some a~ff1davits made by the defendants,
The defense objected to it's present use,
1t thought that unless the affldavits were
produced the court would be left in a state
Of conjecture. The term might have been
used, said Mr.. Patterson, for the purpose
Of d~isproving the zone proposition or it
might nave been injected into the docu-
ment for other purposes.
