- Editor's Notes
- There was nothing legally wrong about the way TAE's phonograph was sold to the North American Phonongraph Company. The article describes the contract and how much TAE and Gilliland would receive for each phonograph sold. It also addresses how Gilliland received $250,000 in cash when TAE thought this money would come through company stock. Tomlinson and Gilliland are trying to compel their transducers to reveal themselves and have resolved to institute proceeding against certain newspapers.
- Tomlinson says he and Gilliland have been maligned by parties who were afraid to make charges under their own names; he's prepared to sue for libel
