London, Jan. 2.—The longest and one of the most unusual lawsuits ever heard in the English courts has just been decided. It involved the owner ghip of $2,500,00 in gold which the Amalgramaten Psoperties of Rhonesia, Ltd., owners of: a million acres: in Rhodesia, claimed that the Globe and Phoenix Gold Mining company, which owns the richest gold mine in the world, had taken from the Rhodesia property. As if to he consistent the court occupied two hours in deliver ing judgment. : , The case lasted 144 days and cost $750,000. One witness was on the stand sixteen days, and another who was on teh stand almost as 16fig, died. Two other men who were interested in the case died before it was con cluded, More than 50,000 questions were put to witnesses and answered. In the final summing up counsel for the defendants spoke for 45 days. Chief counsel for the defense received a fec of $5,000 and his ‘‘refresher” or daily charge was $5OO. The documents in the case were so volumnous that two large rooms were crowded with maps, assays and reports. The proceedings were enliv encd by stirring scenes between op posing counsel and apologies were Or dered by the court. In deciding the case, Justice Eve dismissed the action on the ground that the Amalgramated Properties had failed to prove that the gold was ex tracted from its mine which adjoin ’ed that of the Globe and Phoenix. ‘ e \ BILLINGS PLACE SOLD. . } New York, January 4—Tyron Hall, the $2,000,000 estate og C.

The effect was most per ceptible 25 to 30 minutes after absorb ing the alcohol. Most of the marks men shoe eveq,.y%q;se than the aver age, several of? em 8, 10 and even 12 per cent worse. One of the amus ing sidelights on the tests was that several of the riflemen insisted not only that thei could but actually were shooting better after gettong the spirits while in reality their marks manship had fallen off as much as 10 per cent.
