Dear Sir:-
Referring to Laboratory bill for Lab Experiment, Conducted during the month of October, 1890, amounting to $566.09, I beg to advise you that this bill is made up as follows:-

Edison Phonograph Works bill, given in detail as per bill------$.24
Labor-------$410.95
Proportion of General Expenses----------$123.42
“ “Taxes------$13.87
“ “Insurance----$11.68


TOTAL----------$566.09


During the progress of the negotiation of the Laboratory contract, it was agreed between Mr. Insull and the Laboratory, that the experimental account should be made up of Material, Labor, General Expenses, Taxes and Insurance. This arrangement effected a heavy reduction from our usual charges for experimental work. Any further details that you require I shall be glad to furnish. 1549/204
