vertser from Wellfeet, Mass, says:
Before leaving this place for New
York Mr.. Marconi dropped hint of
complications possibly serious for the
United States Government. 1t appears
that he has already had negotiations
with the United States Government
concerning the right to use a system of
wireless telegraphy over this entire
country. The terms were considered by
the President and were finally rejected
as too high. For nearly year expert
ments have been made in Washington,
and many officers think they have an
invention that will equsl Marconi's.
The Italian inventor knows of this and
intends to stand up for what he believes
his rights in the matter.

it now, but will say that an action will
be brought for an infringement of the

several generations has been tthe agree
ment on the land question by represent
atives of landowners and teFiants. Ex-
treme landowners who at the outset did
their utmost to make the Dublin man

that the representatives of the tenants
are more than willing to go( half way in
an endeavor to bring abouh permanent
peace in agrarian Ireland,) Chief Sec
retary Wyndham is anxious to make
the most of the opportunity and 1t is
believed indeed that Premier Bolfour
and the majority of the cabinet agree
With the king that great seffort should
now be made to settle the} whole ques-
ton. What is feared is that the treasury
may face the situation iD haggling
spirit. The tenants are POW full of
expectation, and are looking forward to
obtaining holdings on the terms laid
down in the report, but If the treasury
fails to give the necessary financial as
sistance the whole scheme will fall thru.

Celebrated Unitarian.
New York, Jan. 13.-Dr. David James
Burrell. in his pulpit Sunday, in a SER
mon entitled '.Anu-Christ,Y attacked
Rev. Minot j. Savage of the Unitarian
Church of the Messiah, applying the
title of his sermon to Mr. Savage Il
particular and to Unitarianism in gen
eral. 1t was continuation of a con-
troversy begun by DIR. Savage in his
Christmas sermon, in which he ex-
pressed doubts concerning the infalli-
bility of the record concerning the life
and teachings of Jesus. Yesterday in
his pulpit he maintained ,Hle position
that the New Ttestamep1 twas not an
infallible guide. DR.. BWrelrs reply
contained these statei..eits:
"If any man denies the divinity of
Jesus Christ he Is anti Christ. and the
doctrine he teaches is anti Christ No
heresy ever dies. The denial of the dl-
vinity of Christ was taught by the ag-
nostics and since their day by many
other heretics and under many different
names.
I'VE have it today in Unitariaaism.
Any teacher in Christian pulpit or
any WiiSIt etSe is a1u-CilrlSt When he
denies that Christ is God. john pro-
nounces his denial of Christ's divinity
a lie. and for the man who denies he
has another word. John calls hi ma liar.
The reason why he denouacss this her.
cay is that 1t strikes at the very root 5.
Christianity. You find me a man who
denies the divinity OF Christ and You
will find man who denies every one
of the fundamental truths of t.e Christ
ian religion. That is why the doctrine
of anti-Christ is the great lie and why
the man who teaches 1t is the great
liar. How shall you know whether ]
am a sound teacher of Christ's truth or
not? John has given the test He
that denies that Christ has come into
the world in the flesh is an unbeliever
and an anti-Chrisi."
