Isbell, Montreal mining broker, was founrd not guilty of charges of conspiracy preferred against him by the Crown. Judge Denton said that he was entitled to a reasonable doubt. The case concerned transactions in Eastern Metals Smelting Co. stock, in which Gilbert and Fields, now in the penitentiary, cleaned up $62,000. Isbell had taken split commissions, in Monâ€" treal Mining Exchange dealings, of $397 and that, the evidence showed, was the limit of his connection â€" His Honor thought that if Isbell had conâ€" spired with Gilbert and Fields he would have demanded a larger share. N. H. Greer, K.C., was counsel for the deâ€" fence, and J. W. McFadden prosecuting Crown Attorney. A feature of the trial was that it was shown that Isbell had been "spirited" out of Quebec, rushed off in a motor car, by Ontario officers. the National Eisteddfod, Chamber of Commerce building, Scranton, Pennsylâ€" vania, U.S.A.

Briefly stated, one main purpose of Empire Shopping Week in Canada is to stimulate the purchase and sale of Empire produce and manufactures in Canada, always remembering that the Empire begins at home and that Canâ€" adian goods are Empire goods. That is the recognized principle on which all Empire Shopping Weeks are arranged; Home products, in this case, Canadian first, other Empire products next.

In one month, April, production equallâ€" ed approximately oneâ€"half the entire output for 1925. During the winter a new adminisâ€" trative building was erected to house the executive and office staffs and the space made available by this change was immediately taken by the producâ€" tion department to increase its producâ€" tion facilities. Even with this additionâ€" al space and equipment, it has required the best of concentrated effort to keep pace with demand, so fast has the popularity of Durant cars spreaag throughout the Dominion.
