TALKS
GOOD EVIDENCE

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. July To-
Telephone compensation. II otherwise
admissible. may be admitted as evi-
dence in California courts as a result
OF decision handed down by the State
Supreme Court yesterday reversing a
nonsuit granted the Western Union
Telegraph Company by the lower court
in an action brought against it by the
Union Construction Company for dam
ages arising from the alleged negli-
gence of the company in falling to
deliver kilograms to the plaintiff.
In laying down this rule the court
referred to the vast volume OF business
transacted by means OF the telephone,
and in this particular case, where the
agents of the plaintiff called up the
telegraph company TO inquire if teIe-
grams for them had been received and
were answered in the negative, there
was sufficient circumstantial evidence
to make a priTna facie case of identity
and authority.

of business, through the central sta
ton with which both were connected,
and received response as in the usual
course of business over the telephone,
this is sufficient prima facie identifi-
cation of the speaker at the other end
of the line as the party called, or his
authorized agent, and that, upon such
proof, the ensuing conversation, If 9TH
erwise admissible, may be testified to
by the witness. 1t is proper to add
that the weight of. such evidence de-
pends largely upon the circumstances
of each case and is always a question
for the trial court or jury
According to the Supreme Court, the
lower court erred in excluding the
evidence of two agents of the con-
struction company relating to tele-
phone conversation with the San Fran
cisco Office of the telegraph company
In the case in question the plaintiff
had an option with the Risdon Iron
Works for a contract for pipe line on
the Stanislaus river for $143,000
Time Limit on Deal.
The night on which the option ex-
pired, January 8, 1907, the company's
engineers wired the San Francisco
agent of the company and also the
manager in Tuolumne county to close
the deal.
The manager was in San Francisco.
and accordingly notice was forwarded
by wire to him. Both kilograms were
received in. the evening at the San
Francisco Office, but were not delivered
until after 8 O'clock the following

SULTAN OF MUSCAT
ADOPTING PLAN TO
END ARMS TRAFFIC

LONDON, June 25.--It is under
stood that the regulation of the arms
traffic in his territory by the Sultan
of Muscat, which was foreshadowed
some months ago in the Monitor, has
now been instituted on a regular
basis.
According to Reuters, Agency no
LITIGATION has been issued by the Sui
tan in which the present system of
keeping large stocks of arms and am
munition stored without proper con-
troll in private buildings in the town
of Muscat is condemned and the an
nouncement is made that, in order to
do away with this condition of affairs,
his highness has arranged to estab-
lish warehouse in which arms and
ammunition will be stored under
proper precautions.
On and after Sept. 1 next all arms
dealers in the territory of the Sultan
will be required to deposit in the
warehouse any stocks remaining in
their hands on that date DO arms
will be permitted to leave the ware
house without license nor until duty
has been paid on them in the usual
way, and licenses will only be issued
on the production of satisfactory
proof that the destination of the arms
end ammunition is open to no objec
ton. 1t is further notified that al
arms leaving the warehouse will be
marked :.

EFFECT OF PANAMA
CANAL UPON BRITISH
EMPIRE DISCUSSED

LONDON, Eng, June PA paper
was read recently. by DR.. Vaughan
Cornish on "The Panama Canal and
It's. Relation to the British Empire" at
the Whitehall rooms
The chair was taken by Lord Bras
sey, who opened the meeting with a
short address. He was followed by
DR.. Cornish, who referred to the Hay
Pauncefote treaty with Great Britain.
He said that by this treaty the United
States undertook that the canal
should be opened on terms of entire
equality to ships of all nations, Wheth-
er merchant ships or ships of war,
during times of peace or during hos
tilities.
The effect of the Panama canal on
the British empire would lie to a
great extent on the enormous reduc-
ton of sea distances. The future
would witness the establishment by
British and European companies OF
services from European waters to New
York. and San Francisco, via the ca
nal, and on to Asia, connecting with
other ships of the same line at Hong
Kong.
The British West Indies would be-
come, at the opening of the canal, OF
first-rate Importance, both from a
strategic and commercial point OF
view, for they would no longer be al
the entrance of cul de sac but on q
great highway of commerce.

BERLIN, June 25.-The disappear
ence of Finland as an autonomous
state has brought the Russian empire
to the very frontiers of Sweden, and
the building of the railways from
Helsingfors to Tornea and from Vi
borg right across the grand duchy is
regarded with some apprehension in
that country.
In this connection some articles
which have appeared lately in the
Reichsbote, Luthern Conservative
organ, are of interest. The journal
advocates the formation Of an agree
ment or league between Germany and
the Scandinavian states, having for
object mutual aid and protection in
the event of war with Rui STA. 1t also
points out the economic md defens-
i've advantages of such union, as
we'll as the POLITICAL Importance
which it would lend to- northern
states. -

DREADNOUGHT OF
AUSTRIA A FAIL URE
DREADNAUGHT


VIENNA, July 11.-Despite official
denials, reports are persistent in cir
culation that the construction of the
first Austrian dreadnaught, the $12,.
100000 Viribus Unitius, has proved a
complete failure. The warship is top
heavy, and all efforts to tighten her
so far have proved unsatisfactory.
Massive portions of iron and steel
tnrrets have been scaled down to such
a degree that certain parts have
buckled and have had to be re-en-
forced with iron plates.
Steel rollers for raising and lower
ing heavy guns have been drilled out,
thereby reducing their weight, but
at the same time lessening their
power of resistance to such an ex-
tent that in the event of the rapid
firing of the guns the rollers will
collapse and render the guns useless.
