Bailey also says he will see that we get paid for these milan Engines.##Bailey writes Eaton that he has established very confidential relations with Siemans & that Siemans gave him a dinner the other day [con----ed] [him] (Bailey) [all] your [expenses] [---] & announced himself as having formed an alliance with you for working your light in Germany.## A book arrived today for you from Dr. werner Seimens.
