COMMITTEE GIVES
WATER To ALIENS

The utilities committee of council
last night spent much time in discus
sing the proposition of permitting the
Export leaf Tobacco company to
use the city water at rates provided
for residents.
Mr.. Mills had suggested that. as the
company contemplated building a
plant which would cost many thou
sands of dollars. and which would be
in the center of the manufacturing
district OF new Richmond. the com
pany be allowed to connect up with
the Richmond water mains.
This resolution, as offered by Mr..
Mills was finally adopted. and sent
to council with the recommendation
that il be accepted.
Upon motion of MIR. Mitchell the
proposition of creating a park for the
use of colored people. was sent back
to subcommittee, with the request
that report be made at the next
meeting.

fore the public was let in on the deal.
there are also in consideration 1907
900 American Marconi shares which
passed direct from the English COM
pany to Percy Helybourn. One point
to be decided, is whether Godfrey
Isaacs, who made himself responsible
for the 100,0 900 shares, acquired them
on his own account or for the English
company. The plaintiffs also con-
tend that as many brokers obtained
shares much under the coming out
price those who purchased shares
through these brokers are entitled to
"a return of their money.
The case has been assigned to a
Judge of the chancery division. The
date of the hearing has not yet been
set. The fight is expected to be
big one. The plaintiffs will be repre-
scented by four KCs.
Libel Suit Is On.
Meanwhile the libel suit against Ce-
Gil Chesterton brought by Godfrey
Isaacs because of articles in the Eye
Witness (now called the New Wit
ness"), of which Chesterton is edi-
tor, came up for hearing before Judge
Phillemore at the Old Bailey today
after having been postponed twice. The
articles charged the managing di-
rector of the Marconi company with
corruption and attempting to obtain
public money for the firm through the
aid of his brother, Sir Rufus Isaacs,
and Postmaster General Samuel dur
ing negotiations with the British gov
ernment for the establishment sys-
tenn of wireless stations. The negotia-
tions were described by Chesterton as
an "abominabie business And God
frey' Isaacs was called "knave" with
an indescribable record in the city.
Sir Edward Carson. the leader OF
the Irish Unionists, and formerly So
licitor general for Ireland, is the
prosecuting attorney. He made. a
speech of three and a half hours out
lining the case against Chesterton.
The editor pleaded not guilty. and de-
clared that every utterance in his pa
per regarding Tsaacs was justified.
Childish FalsehoOd.
Sir Edward Carson called Post
master General Samuel as his first
witness The postmaster general,
whose department had charge Of the
negotiations regarding the United
Wireless station, Indignantly denied
as childish falsehood the allegation
that there had been secret deal for
the benefit Of Godfrey and Sir Rufus
lsaacs, which he asserted would have
been impossible as six government
departments had to take the State
consideration before contract could
be signed.
The attorney general and the chan
cellor of the exchequer will be called
as witnesses when the hearing is re-

DEBORAH WINS AGAIN
Manager EvensOn's Braves Win
Hot Base Ball Contest From
the Burr Oak Athletes,

The DEBORAH base ball team, slipp-
ed another victory into her win col.
umn Sunday at Burr Oak, in a hard
fought game with the Burr Oak
Athletes. The day was hot and sui
try, but good crowd was out to
help initiate Burr Oaks new ball
diamond. The Burr Oakers have
gatherd together cracker-jack
team and with a little more prac-
tice will give most of the teams here
abouts good run for their money.
Frank Sullivan is with the team and
adds lots of ginger by his snappy
plays and good head work.
The game was good one to wit
ness both teams fighting every inch
of the way. DEBORAH scored twice
in the first inning but after that
there was nothing doing until the
fifth when an error allowed Burr
Oak to start scoring and they tied
up the score and the next inning
annexed two more. Ramlo, Burr
Oaks hurler was very effective, but
weakened in the It'll, Sullivan re-
lieving him, and then there was
something doing, as the bases filled
up rapidly, by hits and walks. With
three men on bases in the eighth,
Bidne, of long hit fame, aeriled a
high one into deep left and two
scores counted, tieing the score,
and the next inning two more
scores counted for DEBORAH.
1t was one of those fatal ninth in
ming blow-ups, and Burr Oak lost
a game that they practically had
safely stored away. A return game
in DEBORAH should attract a large
crowd. Following is the score:
