DEFENSE RESTS
REBUFF AL ON.
TN CARSON CAST

TUCSON Ariz., Oct IS, lP--After
the two defendants Phelps Dodge
corporation and the Calumet and
Arizona patent case had had an in
ming lasting Is IL court days, H. A.
Elliott, their chief counsel announced
shortly before noon today that the
defense rested their case The re-
buttal of the plaintiff started in the
afternoon.
Charles S. Wheeler, Jr., Of San
Francisco, chief counsel for the Car
son Investment company, pointed
out to the court that motion picture
photography, which had been Of
fered by the defense as testimony
today, was not necessarily an accu-
rate reproduction of what actually
takes place in the operation OF a
reverberatory furnaces. However,
Wheeler did not make formal OBJ
/ lection against introduction of the
film which the court declined.
Judge Samuel E, Fouts examiner
in chief in the United States patent
office from 1916 to 1926, and who in
H 1913, WrOJ6 LIE TWO carson Cldl1llo,
was the first rebuttal witness called
by the plaintiff
Judge Fouts' testimony dealt chief
ly with the plaintiffs contention that
Siemens by the teachings in the
specifications of his British patent,
disclosed that a go degree angle
wall is not the wall to be used in
his furnace unless an ore having a
normal angle of repore of approxi-
nately 60 degrees is the type of ore
which he is using; that he intends
to have an agile for his side wall in
all cases corresponding approximately
to the angle of repose of whatever
!. ore he may be seeking to reduce.
| Fouts then discussed the later Sic
mems patents, relied upon by the de-
, PENDANTS to defeat the Carson claims
In this connection he pointed out
/ that these patents made no mention
of the copper smelling or other treat
ment, and furthermore, that Siemens
points out in the specifications of any
of the patents neither that he had a
problem of wall corrosion to be over
come nor that he is offering means
of meeting any such problems.

New York. Nov. 1.--(P)--Tho Hol- land vohicular tunnel greatest of un- derWatcr travel ways, will be opened on November IS to provide a dry land path for motor vehicles and pedestrians between New York and New Jersey beneath the Hudson river.
 Success and tragedy have been mingled in the building of the huge tunnel. Seven years of toll and the expenditure of S4S,000,0 ,000 have been involved in the construction Of the twin tubes, each a mile and three quarters long-the longest vehicuIar tunnel in the world.
 One after another. two chief en- gineers of the project died with their task only partly completed. A third engineer took up the task and car ricd it to completion.
 When work was begun on October 12, 1920. construction was under the direction of Clifford M. Holland. At that time the project was known

as the Hudson River tunnel. Just as
 construction reached the point where the sand hogs.' working under compressed air were about to "holc through" under the middle of the river, Holland died,

 Despite the tremendous cost of the tunnel it is expected to pay for itself, from tolls no greater than ferries charge. within 12 years. It has been estimated that if a toll of one dol lar a car were charged and capacity traffic were maintained 24 hours a day, the receipts would be almost S1,o00,600 daily and the entire in debtedness could be paid off in less than two months.
 But it was decided 10 base the tolls upon existing ferry rates, mak- ing the charge per car about 40 cents. The interstate tunnel and bridge commission also points out that traffic will average below capa- city and that large operating costs must be taken into consideration. It is estimated that by spreading costs over 1o years the tunnel can be paid for and maintained without the levying of eXorbitant tolls.

ST. LOUIS ALWAYS
 BIG FUR CENTER
Dates Back to Old Indian FT0n.
 tier Days

St. Louis, Nov. 1. LP)--Trading bright -coored beads, flashy trinkots and attractive knick- -knacks to In- dians for furs and belts, early set tiers who founded St. Louis in the eighteenth century created an indus try that has grown until now the city is regarded as the leading pri- mary raw fur market Of the world.
 In the pioneer days, when Pierre Laclede and Augustc Choutcau came mp from New Orleans with their followers and settled on the site of St. Louis, expensive turs and pelts were traded by the red men in exchange for q few cents worth of novelties.
 Today the volume of fur business handled here annually amounts 10 millions. One of the most impOr- tant angles of the trading is the semi-annual auction held by the federal government, at which ex- pensive seal skins obtained on the Pribiloff Islands, the United States Stdl ltr'1l Nt 'Il lliN +Ali~aNti IT N'H''', are sold. The sales are held in May and October, and S500,oQ0 usually changes hands.
 Buyers from all over the United States and representatives of fur houses in London, Paris and other European cities attend the auction. Black seals were in greatest de- mand at the last sale, with "Bois de Campeche," or log wood brown, next.
 More shipments of belts come to the St. Louis market from it's @5 fur houses in the trapping grounds than to any other market in the world, officials of the mart say. Through the St Louis sales. prices are established for flrs throughout the world.
 St, Louis fur houses handle all seal skins for the government, The catch is sent here for dyeing and later is sold at auction.
