This suit is brought upon design patent No. 29,939, dated January 3, 1899, and patent No. 617,592, dated January 10,1899; one for the design for a portable lamp body, and the other for an electric device for the lamp.

Upon examination of the record, the design patent and claims 1 and 3 of the other appear to be valid, and to have been infringed. Decree for plaintiff.
