More Telephone Litigation.

OTTAWA, Ont. Feb. "A A. Dickson, of
Montreal. manufacturer of electrical instru-
ments, has filed an application with the Minister
of Agriculture with view to testing the validity
of the patent for the Blake transmitter held by
the Bell Telephone Company. In 1879 letters
patent was granted Mr.. Blake, the inventor by
the Patent Office. In 1880 he assigned by deed
of right to sellan manufacture. to the Canadian
Telephone Company, and they, in turn. assigned
to the Bell Telephone Company in 1882. The
petitioner claims that the patentees have not OBJ
served the conditions of the law, in that they
have, at various times after the expiration of
twelve months from the date of the issue OF the
letters patent, imported, or caused to be i'm
ported into Canada. parts of the machine for
which the patent was granted; that machines
were imported and put together IN Montreal and
other places. and that the manufacture of these
articles did not commence in Canada within a
period of two years from the date of the patent,
as required by law. AS the petitioner has manu-
featured these articles dispute has arisen as to
his right to do So and this case has been
brought before the minister so that the point
may be definitely settled.

Endorsement of His Action in Voting Against
Pension for Mrs. Grant.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Feb 2-When the bill to place
Mrs. Grant on the pension list came up in the
House, few weeks ago. Representative Price.
of Wisconsin, was the only member with the
hardihood to vote NO Some of the newspa-
pers in the West took occasion to assail Mr..
Price for his course in this matter This gave
him an opportunity to explain his vote. which he
did upon the ground that he would not vote to
increase the pension of any officers widow or to
place the widow of President upon the pension
rolls until justice had been accorded to the hun
dreds of poor fellows throughout the country
who are entitled to pensions, but who, through
some technlcaities in the law,.are kept out of
them. Mr.. Price said that his reason for voting
no" in this particular case was that Mrs. Grant
was not pauper; that the country mad already
honored her husband to the highest degree. and
that pension was not necessary in her case.
he added that he should vote against pensioning
Presidents widows continually, and that he
hoped to see the day when the country would
look at this matter in the proper light. Since
his explanation was made public Mr.. Price has
been in receipt of hundreds of letters from all
sections of the country commencing his course.
Grand Army posts and soldiers organizations of
every kind throughout the country indorse his
views. and he says now that he believes that the
day is dawning when there will no longer be that
feeling In the House which forces a member to
vote romsentimental purposes rather than from
the merits of the case before him.

Swede church yard, while the sun shone brightly

the funeral of oday was almost repetition of
the recent one. An even greater throng over
flowed the church, but the obsequies were as
simple, and there was the same avoidance of
ceremony. The same pail bearers who followed
the daughters coffin followed her mother to her

the short service, it was literally hidden in flow

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2-The tangle which is
likely to grow out of the English parliamentary
muddle. which is caused by the fact that the
English Constitution does not provide distinct
line of demarcation between the duties of the
executive and the legislative branches of the
government, has thrown wet blanket on the
advocates of the scheme to amend the Constitu-
ton of the United States SO as to allow the
members of the Cabinet to appear on the floor
of the House and Senate in advocacy of legisla-
ton affecting their various departments. A
joint resolution with this object in view was in
troduced some time ago by Ex-Governor Long, of
Massachusetts. and has met the cordial approval
of many on both sides of the House, who admire
the methods of gaining light employed in parlia-
mentary proceedings of the older nations of
Europe The resolution went to the judiciary
committee which has the reputation of strang-
ling nearly every measure that is presented to
it for its consideration, and it is now likely that
it will not be again heard from at this session of
