Jefferson a little later sold out to Captain Owens for $1,000, taking the captain's note in payment, with the understanding that he should retaiu his interest should the note be unpaid at the end of a year. He asked the steamship company to bring the men back and forwarded the money agreed upon, but Captain Owens countermanded the order, claiming full ownership of the Island.

ANTHRACITE AT MINERS' MEETING In order to give Londoners a full opportunity to witness the funeral procession it has been decided to extend the route, which is fixed to pass Buckingham palace, through St. James' park and past St. James' palace to Piccadilly, then along Piccadilly to Hyde park corner, through Hyde pa*k, emerging at the Marble arch, then along Edgeware road te Paddington station. r . r . r . p . In September last the island waa aold at auction through Peter F. Meyer to John B. H. .Teffenmi of Baltimore for $28,000. He took Captain Wyatt Owens into partnership with him, and the two engaged James II. Woodward as inperintendent and sent him to Navassa with William A. Pomphrey, John Hill and John A. Bell, all of Baltimore. The Atlas Steamship company agreed to bring the men back at any time for $110. Sir. Jefferson a little later sold out to Captain Owens for $1,000, taking the captain's note in payment, with the understanding that he should retaiu his interest should the note be unpaid at the end of a year. He asked the steamship company to bring the men back and forwarded the money agreed upon, but Captain Owens countermanded the order, claiming full ownership of the Island.
