Long Litigated Patent Suit--Importnnt
Decision.

A Long Ltigated Patent sait--Important
Decision.
Before Judge Blatchford.
Ho6inon rs. Mosety. Woody and Cochran, Mclean
d Co.-Tnis was an application to the Court for an
attachment against the defendants for an alleged con-
tempt in having violated an injunction heretofore
issued against them. Plaintiff presented an ani-
davit showing the purchase by him OF collars from
the defend ns, and also an affidavit from an expert,
setting forth that those collars were III their manu-
1acture an infringement OF the plaintlTs patent
OF the same sort as the Court had previously en-.
joined.
The defendants denied any intention to infringe
the patent or 10 violate the injunction, cOntendlng
that the collars manufactured by him did neither
one nor the other. They admitted that some Oi the
ingredients used by them in their manufacture
the used by the plaintiff bur that this
material did not produce the enamel which consti-
tutes the basis upon which plaintin's patent was
procured, and that the sulpnate OF lime, the prn
cipal ingredient in plairtin's manufacture, was moi
used by them.
The Court held that no c0n.emps had been proved
by the plaintiff rhat the process he was pursuing
raised a grave question whether such process was
an infringement Of the pateut but that such queS
tIOn could not Ue decided upon affidavit. and that
fllc palDtf must pursue some other method to
bring such question before the Court for proper dis
position. Inc attachments for cOntcmpt re-
fused.

Defendants Clarence A. Seward.
