IMPORTANT TO STEEL MEN.

A Brilliant Array or Legal Talent Arguing
aQuestion Involving Millions.
PHILADELPHIA, April 28.-Argument be-
gan this morning in the United States Cir.
cult Court, before Judges McKennsn and
Butler, in an important case, growing out Of
the manufacture of steel and involving the
celebrated Martin patents.
The plaintiffs are Congressman Abram s.
Hewitt, of New York, Edward Cooper, of
New York, and Pierre Martin, and the heirs
of Emile Martin, Of Paris, who claim that
the Pennsylvania Steel Co. have infriBged
the Martin patent, granted Aug. rs, 1868, for
a process Of converting cast iron into steel,
and other combinations of iron and carbon
commonly known as the opened hearth
process. This process OF making steel, 1t is
claimed, since its introduction, has entirely
revolutionized the manufacture of that arti-
Gle, being the most rapid and cheapest man
ner for the manufacture of large or small
quantities of cast steel from all grades of
cast or scrap iron, and such as could not be
employed in the Bessemer and other pro-
cesses.
The case is Of great interest to a majority
of the most extensive steel makers iu the
country, and involves hundreds of thou
sands of dollars. The argument will prob
ably occupy a couple of days. Mr.
William c. Strawbzidge, Esq, Of
Strawbridge & Taylor, of this city, be-
gan the argument on behalf Of the plaintiffs.
He reviewed the progress made during the
last twenty years in the manufacture of
steel, and stated that outside of the old and
Anticipated method Of producing steel by
the crucible the Bessemer and the Martin
process we're the only methods which had
been successful.
The defendants are represented by ex-
Attorney General Wayne MacVesgh, and
he will contend that the invention as
patented in this country was anticipated by
other prior patents.
