ARRIVES FROM EUROPE.
W. Barry Owen, manager of the Gramo-
phone & Typewriters, Ltd., London,
Eng., arrived here early in the week for
the purpose of spending Christmas with
his family, and looking after business on
this side. His presence last summer kept
talking machine circles guessing, but now
he may travel his way unvexed even by the
vigilant newspaper man with a "story" in
view.
THE PARKER-McKANNON SUIT SETTLED.
The suit of John H. Parker, manufac-
turer of the "Bandola," against McKan-
non Bros. & Co., Burlington, V t , was
finally settled last Saturday by the pay-
ment to Mr. Parker of the sum of $1,227.
The matter has been in litigation since
July, 1900, over the validity of Mr.
Parker's patents on this instrument. The
original suit was for the alleged non-per-
formance of a contract.
