bushels of barley, 100000 bushels of
wheat and perhaps 100000 bushels of oats
from the Columbia valley will find a
market in the East this season. Most of

One of the factors in the movement of
the grain is a reduction in the rate from
80 cents to so cents per 100 pounds Much
OF the wheat goes to the manufacturers
of cereal food preparations.
The shortage of the wheat crop in Utah
made it necessary for that state to look
te the Columbia valley for it's supply and
special rate of As cents per 100 pounds
was made for that movement.

Captain Barr spent two months about

be improved if Ratsey made her sails.
Captain Barr said:
What's the matter with the sails
made on this side? There was good
deal in the last trial races about mis-
tit sails that was untrue.
Il consider that it is possible to make
a S good sails on this side as can be cut

WIRELESS EXPERIMENTS CAN
NOT BE STOPPED.
COMPANIES WANT MONOPOLY
Charter of the Cable Companies Does
Not Protect Them Against the
Marconi System But They
Fear Competition.
(By Associated Press.

New York. Dec. 1S.-That William
Marconi's wireless experiments in New
Foundland cannot be stopped by the
Anglo-American Telegraph company
even by resort to the courts, is the as
sertion of MIR. Marconi's representatives
there. They further state that he cam
not be stopped even from transmitting
commercial messages.
They say the charter of the Anglo
American company by which it claims
a monopoly of teleEraphic communication
between New Foundland and other
places. was examined by counsel for the
Marconi company before any attempt
was made to experiment in New Found
land.
They decided that the charter would
not interfere with the sending Of Wire
less messages to and from New Found
land even for the two years the charter
has yet to rum.
They declare that in the first place
that charter monopoly would not
operate to estop scientific experiments,
and second, that according to English
decisions. such a grant would not oper-
ate to bar an invention that was UNI
known at the time the concession was
granted.
c. Cuthbert general manager for the
Marconi Wireless Telegraph company
said in an interview: I'VE are rather
glad than otherwise that this attempt
to stop Mr. Marconi has been made.
Even if We so no further in New Found
land, although we can do so If we wish'
it will do us no harm. There are places
along the coast equally available. y.
The interference shows, to my mind,
TO- the cable companies look upon us
60 dangerous competitor. 1t rather
pleases me as an acknowledgment Soi
the fact that wireless biography is, a
coming force" -
Edward Norman. counsel for the Mar
conf company said:
This action by the Anglo American
company is surprise to me as 1 had
supposed that there would be no hos
tility, direct or indirect.
Before Mr.. Marconi attempted to
make experiments in New FOundland,'
went over the Anglo American charter
with view to determining his rights
1t is clear the company cannot stoI
scientific experiments. The company
seems to have feared active competition
and therefore we have taken the bull
by the horns"

cooperation of American Irishmen.

said, he had initiated the movement
and he believed it would produce
as generous financial aid for Ireland
as 1t had ever done before.

that Mr.. Wyndham, chief secretary for
Ireland. has resorted to the coercion of
ireland and he hoped he would continue
to extend it.
If there was one thing they wanted
in Ireland, Mr.. Redmond said. 1t was
the salt Of coercion, for this would not
hurt Ireland, but would irretrievably
damage the government.
In the course Of his speech Mr.. Red
mond described how all classes in the
United States. from President Roose-
welt down. had extended their hospital
ity, their good will and their sympat thy
with his mission and the Irish cause.
He said he regarded these evidences of
good will as of enormous value to Ire
land.
With the enlightened public opinion
Of the great and free nation at her
side, explained the speaker. Ireland
possessed a power more potent for the
future than all the armies and navies
at the disposal Of Mr.. Chamberlain and
Lord Salisbury.
Mr.. Redmond said that he and his
companions had received the same as.
surances Of sympathy from Canada. Sill
