Abundant Christmas Gifts and Ocean Mine Echoes
A Chicago Christmas feature notes firms planning lavish employee gifts including turkeys for 2500 workers and $20 gold pieces for 200 staff, with totals reaching several hundred thousand dollars. The piece then shifts to speculative future mining under the ocean near Cape Breton, describing waterless, pressure-packed submarine caverns and a fireclay roof. The column also juggles political commentary on Panama, Kaiser, religious church-state debates in France, wireless communications, and a garbled array of contemporary remarks from ministers and republicans.
