THE STARR MERITS.
The Starr phonograph dealers are well primed
with facts treating of the merits and special features
of the machines. They quote one special reason
why the Starr phonograph is different from others.
That is the throat. They say: "The tones of a
phonograph issue from its throat; and therefore the
designing of this part of the instrument is of special
importance. The throat of the Starr is a true 'sing-
ing throat;' it is not made of metal, and is wholly
free from the unpleasant metallic resonances; it is
made of the one material that has given perfection
of tone to priceless violins—silver grain spruce, the
wood used by old masters of violin making. Cor-
responding care is used in every other part of the
Starr. It is the one phonograph that gives true en-
joyment of music."
The postponment of the suit of the Victor Talk-
ing Machine Company for an order to restrain
Charles Stitt, a former employe, from entering the
employment of the Columbia Graphophone Com-
pany, which was heard in Camden, N. J., last week,
was in part due to the contention of the latter com-
pany that it has never had proper service of the
suit and therefore was not represented at the hear-
ing. To give an opportunity for proper service to
be made the case was continued for two weeks.
Stitt denied that he had given the rival concern
any trade secrets of the Victor, where he was em-
ployed for 14 years, and where he admitted that he
gained all his knowledge of the business. He ackowl-
edged conferring with Columbia officials and ad-
mitted that he had shown the Victor plant to
William R. Palmer, an engineer of the rival com-
pany. He justified the Palmer inspection by declar-
ing that Eugene Kieffer, superintendent of the cabi-
net department, had escorted Nathan Moore,
an official of the Columbia Company, through
the Camden plant. Stitt averred that he ad-
vised with the rival company as to how best
to lay out a cabinet factory and contended that the
information he gave was in no way secret and did
not damage the Victor company.
Stitt further declared that all his conferences were
held on Sundays and holidays and that he was paid
$50 per day for his services.

BIG CABINET OUTPUT.
The Wisconsin Cabinet & Panel Co., New Lon-
don, Wis., one of the main sources of cabinet supply
for the Thomas A. Edison industries, has enlarged
Uts plant to a daily output of 250 per day. Prac-
tically all of these are shipped to the Edison factory
at Pullman, 111. Improvements in the New London
factory are still going forward and it is hoped to
bring the output up to 300 cabinets daily by spring.
