Rogers worked over her several hours

THE MAKING OF MACARONI.
Nr. Hayden Says That American
Wheat Can he Used.

Joseph E. Hayden, the Upited States
Consul at Castenamare di Stabia, Italy.
informs the State Department that, after
efforts covering a period of over two
years, he has succeeded in demonstrating
the fact that the very finest quality of
macaroni can be made of American
wheat.
Up to the present time the Consul
writes, Russian wheat and wheat from
the Orient have been used. together with
italian wheat, for the production of this
article of food. the American wheat being
considered too soft Through the coop
Grafton of one of the largest establish
ments in this district, it has been found
that this conclusion was based upon the
proverbiaI conservatism Of the people
When it is remembered that macaroni
consists of wheat to the extent of 50 per
cent, it will be readily seen that here is
an opening for American wheat of no in
considerable Importance Il should be
understood that while there Is n tax on
American wheat, there is also tax on
all foreign wheat-2I.44 for 220.46 pounds
1t should also be borne in mind that in
ternationaI freights covering transporta-
ton of grain from Russia, the Orient, and
the United States are practically the
same.
1T has been suggested to me that if the
United States Government would admit
free of duty, or at least at a lower tax
than the present tariff. macaroni made
from American wheat, market for our
wheat would be opened in competition
with that Of Russia and the East The
present tariff on LOCO pounds of macaroni
is SIS, or IL cents per pound; under the
plan proposed. 90 per cent of the said 1,o0o
pounds would enter free, leaving 20 per
cent to be taxed at the present rate of IL
cents per pound. making on the 1000
pounds a tax Of Sc, instead of SIS. II
should be remembered in this connection
that the Italian manufacturer of maca-
roni under the scheme proposed, would
have to pay freight from the United
States to Italy, and also pay freight on
the same wheat manufa ctured into naca-
roni and transported to the United
States

AGAINST THE MONOPOLY
The Bell Telephone Company Loses
Another Suit.
Judge Brown, in the Massachusetts
Federal Circuit Court. Decides
the MicrOphOne Patent VOid-OpeHs
the Way to Independent Concerns.

the Way to Independent Concerns.
BOSTON, June 25.-Another heavy blow
was given to the Bell Telephone rnonopo-
ly in the Federal Circuit Court yesterday
when Judge Brown decided the second
case brought to recover for alleged in
Judgements of patents.
Judge Browns decision is that the Bell
Company no longer has a legal right to
the exclusive use of the Berliner micro
phone, and that its patent on that inven-
ton is void By this decision the way is
open for independent telephone companies
in all parts of the United States to com
pete successfully against the Bell monop-
oily.
After the United States Supreme Court
in 1895 refused TO annul the Berliner pat
ent. suits to recover damages for alleged
infringement of the patent were brought
/ by the American Bell Telephone Compa-
ny against the National Telephone Manu-
featuring Company and the Century Tel
| ephone Company. The first of these cases
WIS decided by Judge Brown in Febru-
aTy, he ruling against the Bell monopoly.
Judge Brown. in deciding the second
case adversely TO the plaintiffs, holds that
! the patent involved in the first case was
void, and in the second case It was either
upon by the defendants. The Bell Com
pnay. it is stated, will appeal both cases.
Until Judge Brown had rendered these
decisions it was believed by the Bell
Company's adhereGts that that company
would enjoy monopoly until 1903, in
which year the patent on the Berliner mi
crophone would expire. This invention
had been controlled by the Bell Company
for many years, and it was not patented
until Prof. Bells own patent on similar
| attachment was about to expire.
The Berliner patent practically con-
trolls telephony, as it has TO do with both
the receipt and the transmission of
sound The delay obtained in the Patent
Office, Il was charged, tended to prolong
the Bell Company's monopoly for fifteen
years beyond the time when the Bell
patent expired Under Judge Browns de-
cisions the monopoly insured by the Ber-
liner patent is at an end
