The court on Saturday afternoon concluded hearing evidence in the matter of the claim of the General Electric company against the Cochitl Gold Mining company, for an amount of money alleged to be due on the con tiact of sale of the machinery.

The mining company called experts to show that these defects were due to the fact that the machines were Imperfect as received from the fac tory, In New York, and that these im perfections when the machines were started caused still greater complica tions in the electrical machinery, that this defect was principally In the hear ings of the machines, and that the electrical company sent Its experts to the mine, who corrected the defects by making charges In the mechanical construction of the machines.
