made ans arrangement with Matt
Gleason, then-a resident Of Ely,
MINI. by which he was to receive
the interests stated above; together
with any bonus that he might
secure from persons taking the
property.
It was shown . that Matt Gleason
was at that time vice president and
one of the directors of the Gleason
company.
Mr-carey went to work seeking
Ito place the property. Among
Others that he. approached was
Supt.; Moore Of ,Virginih, who
made A. deposition that was In
|troduced in evidence. Mr. Moore
stated that at one, time he was
negotiating with Carey with a view
to taking overrtheo properties; that
he told Carey his royalties were
too high-he. was asking. so and rs
cents but thatsif Carey couldushade
the,royalties he,would pay him a
bonus. Carey replied that all he
expected II to get out of the pro-
perties was the royalty in excess of
Al and 40. cents, respectively.
This deposition was introduced to
corroborate Carey. Later Mr.. Ca
rey placed these properties with
the Davidson company fori so and
AGENTS royalties. He received
IRON the Davidson people the sum
of SIS 900 as bonus from them
FLOR getting the two properties.
Mr. Gleason, when put upon the
stand. testified that he remembers
ed nothing about making Mr.. Cal
rey such a promise. 81
In the arguments that followed
Mr.. Belden put particular stress
upon the point that Mr.. Gleason,
il. he made such a promise, did so
on his own responsibility and not
as an agent of the corporation; he
was not an accredited agent of the
Gleason Exploration & Mining
company and no., officer of a cor.
poration can bind a corporation
unless he is so accredited. RS !
| Judge Flanagan instructed the
attorneys on both sides to fill
briefs and will give his decision
later on.

Colombo.-Mr. Rice, the Marconi
expert, who came to Ceylon recently
to superintend the erection Of the
new wireless station, says the site is
excellent, although a long way out,
and that the station, when completed,
will be one of the most up to date
in the east. The apparatus is Of the
best, and includes the latest inven-
tons. The station will have a guar
anteed range over water Of $50 miles,
At night, he thinks, under favorable
conditions, this distance will be ex-
! ceeded considerably, and he puts a
range of 1000 miles as not outside
the realms Of possibility. He consid-
ers that both Bombay and Calcutta
may occasionally be reached, and that
ships in Madras harbor should be COM
municated with without difficulty.
The work of erecting the masts is
| progressing very satisfactorily. Bar
ring untoward events, the job should

steel masts will be put UP, both go
feet in height, these being two of the
| highest erected by the Marconi COM
pany. They will be built in sections
Of ten feet, and as some forty feet is
up already, it is anticipated that the
erection of each will take about a
month. When both masts are up the

will then be undertaken.

SECTIONS STRIKE FOR WAGES
Hard Work to Dig Graves, Say
"SkiIIed" Diggers to
Trustees.

London.-The strike epidemic which
for the last eighteen months has been
daily menace to the welfare OF
Great Britain has now invaded the
cemetery.
Grave diggers at the Western Ne
cropolis, Lambhill and ST. Kentigern's
burying grounds, Glasgow, have struck
work altogether, and are now picket
ing the approaches to the cemetery
gates. They demand decreased hours
Of work, ali increase Of three shillings
/ week in wages and six days annual
holiday. The whole thing is a farce"
said an official. Grave diggers," he
said, work nine hours in summer
and seven and a half in winter. Ger
tain men are required to work on Sat
urday afternoon and on Sundays, but
for this they receive four shillings
each, whether for opening or filing in
graves"
The official said the mems wages
averaged thirty shillings, which was
excellent for unskilled labor, to say
nothing of tips. There has been no
difficulty in filling the places of the
strikers, said the official, and work
was proceeding as usual. No funerals
would require postponement. The
strikers claim to be skilled laborers
and allege that BLACK Leg grave dig.
gers are making a "sad mess OF
things"
They also insist that their work
feelings of mourners should not be
narrowed by bungling at the grave
side, which they say is sure to happen
if the duty of filling a grave is done
by unskilled laborers.
