The reports of the Department Of Ag-
riculture show that the late crops have
suffered from drought and frost. Never
theless, we will have enough for the peo-

and to smoke, and plenty to spare to feed
the hungry, clothe the naked and solace
the restless of other countries. OF cot
ton the crop will fall little, if at all, short
of the enormous productions of last year.

The collision in Chicago on Wednesday,
between the militia and the strikers,
resulted in an advantage to the mob
until the order was given to load with

This is the result of not understanding

choose within the law. The row began
with an endeavor on the part of the

POINTS IN THE DECISION.


Taking up first the defendants motion
to quash the return, the court granted the
motion on the ground that the service,
according to the marshaps return, had
been made upon local corporations in
Ohio, designated in the return as agents
and partners of the defendant. The
court found that the local corporations
were not such agents as are contemplated
by the Ohio statute defining the method
of obtaining service upon foreign corpo-
rations in Ohio. Taking up, then, the
plea in abatement, which by the election
Of the Government had been set down
for argument instead of being put in is
sue, thereby became entitled to treatment
by court as if its statements had all been
established by proof, the court found that
the proper elements for giving this court
jurisdiction, namely: Carrying on bust
ness in Ohio second, carrying on business
in Ohio through a general agent, and
third, local statute providing that SER
vice should be made on such general or
managing agent, did not exist. The tele-
phone business in Ohio is done by local
companies, who lease instruments from
the patent company. There is no general
or managing agent of the parent com
pany in Ohio. As to the claim Of the
government that the dealing in patent
made the company domestic in the en-
tire territory of the United States, cock
istent with the patent, the court held that
it could not be sustained. The grant to
patentee is the right to exclude others
from making or selling his patent His
right to sell is only the common law
right, and is not a franchise from the
government.
DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
The bill was dismissed for want of
jurisdiction and without prejudice to in
shutting suit elsewhere.
