OPPOSITION
TO MARC0Nl
The Anglo-American Gable Com
pany Is Directing to the Inven-
tors Plans.
\ MONOPOLY THREATENED
Marconi Is Today Awaiting Message
From London Announcing the Result
of the Negotiations With the
0bjecting Company.

New York, Dec. 18.-William Marco
mis- wireless experiments in New
Foundland cannot be stopped by the
Anglo American Telegraph company
even by resort to the courts. They de-
clare the character of monopoly
would not operate to estop scientific
experiments, and, according to English
decisions, such a grant would not op-
crate to bar an invention unknown at
the time a concession is granted,
MARCONTS PLANS.
st. Johns, N. F., Dec. 1S.--Marconi is
today awaiting a message from Lon
don announcing the result of the ne
gotiations between his agents and the
Anglo American Gable company. The
inventor fears the latter will insist
that he must not engage in commercial
business here until after the expiration
of the companys monopoly. Marconi is
not disposed to agree to such a cond1-
ion, believing he can perfect the
means for signalling between Cornwall
and Nova Scotia within a few months.
He has now practically decided to WIS.,
it Nova Scotia on Sunday, but this
does not necessarily mean he Will
abandon New Foundland on account of
the Anglo American Gable company
Superintendent MacKey of the Anglo
American company, in this province,
denies that he protested to Governor
Boyce against the latter visiting the
Marconi station. 1t is certain, how
ever, the cabinet met yesterday fore
noon, prior to visiting Signal Hill, and
discussed whether to go there or not.
Premier Bond says the government
decided to support Marconi while his
work is experimental, on the ground
that it's scientific value should be as
certained in the interest of the whole
world, without taking sides in the con-
troversy.

tions have been raised
HOUSE.
Washington, Dec. 1S.-The house to-
day resumed the debate upon the bill
to provide temporary revenues for the
Philippine Islands, under the agree
ment that the bill be voted on at 4
o'clock this afternoon. Henry, Texas,
was the first speaker. He characteriz-
ed the bill as oppressive and outra-
geous He dwelt upon the injustice OF
the double export and import tax on
rice, sugar and tobacco, and charged
that this double taxation was in the
interest Of the sugar and the tobacco
trust.
Henry pointed out that Porto Rico
last year produced more sugar for eX-
port than the Philippines, and denied
that free importation from the Islands
would threaten Louisiona industry
with annihilation. Benefits from the
sale of cotton and rice, he argued,
would more than compensate 1t for
any injury to its sugar industry
Williams, Mississippi, followed Hen
ry. He said, to avoid the embarrass-
ments and difficulties of the situation,
he believed we should get rid of the
islands as soon as we could do so with
honor to ourselves and benefit to the
Filipinos.
Williams paid his respects to the
supreme court, which, he said, arrived
at it's decision by shifting majority
of one" 1t made of the old inelastic
oathbound constitution, an instru-
ment that would bend to political ne
cessities.
Hepburn, Iowa, supported the bill
He declared the Filipinos were incapa-
BILE of self government so also We're
the Cubans.
Hepburn became involved in a spirit
ed -cornered exchange with Dear
mond, Shafroth and Cousins. Dalzell
Pennsylvania, closed the debate.

pine bill was lost by vote OF LIZ t6
