THE NEWS or HoBOKEN.


N M ."N EN IA
The opening Of River street between
First and Second streets is the pioneer
movement toward the future great ship
ping trade, which viii be conferred In 10
boken. There are already four of the
finest docks in the vicinity of New York,
n before many years there will be as
many more. Coasting steamship compa7
MES have been negotiating with the Ho-
boken Land and improvement Company
some time II have promised as soon as
| the leases of their present premises ex-
pire they will transfer the docks to Ho-
boken.
The awkwardness of the approaches to
the docks above First street has long been
a detriment, but now. that is. lone away
with, and in a week traffic can be carried
on. The old workshop of the Pennsylva-
mia Railroad has been raZed at great eX-
pense to the city. The outlay will be
amply repaid i'll a few years.
For a long time the steep ascent from
the Bremen and Wilson line docks to
Hudson street has been detrimental to
carriers. The trucks have been compelled
to leave with light loads, as it was impos-
sible for the horses to get up the incline.
The Hoboken Land and Improvement
Company will give no reason for backing
out of their agreement with the city TO
build a dock and a new street on the water
front opposite Hudson Square Park, In
exchange for the privilege the company
were to give the city three parcels of land
for the erection of public institutions.
The entire water front from Weehawken
to the lower Hoboken ferry has been re-
served by the company for steamship
docks, and they are certain that in course
of time the cheap rents will induce the
lines having docks In New York to change
to Hoboken.
Another Unioaded Pistol.
Two little boys and a pistol nearly
caused a tragedy ON Ferry street yester-
day. The pistol was not loaded, but
nevertheless it discharged and put a shot
in the leg of one of them. Abraham
Rapfogel, sever years of age, was sitting
on the stoop of his house, No, 1862 Ferry
street, with his companion in mischief,
Frank HoYe. By some means Rapfogel
became possessed of his fathers 32-calibre
pistol and was showing it to his admiring
friend. 1t went off and the large ball cut
into his leg. Yelling with pain the lad
ran to the nearest drug store, but was sent
down to the police station and attended
by DR.. Simon. He was sent home after
the ball had been extracted.

An ImnOrfanf Letter

The New York Tribune having intimated in
recent article that possibly the decision
of the Supreme Court in the Bate
refrigerator case might effect the validity
of the rights of the phonograph-grapho-
phone combination under the recent origi-
nal Edison phonograph patent, Mr.. Edison
himself has set the matter at rest by the fol-
lowing card published in the Tribune of yester-
day:
MR.. EDISON AND HIS PHoNoGRAPH.
Mr.. Lippincofs Contracts Coper the Funda-
mental as Vel as tie Recent Patents.
To the Editor of the Tribune:
Sir: My attention having been called to an
article in your paper of this date on the subject
of the decision of the United States Supreme
Court. rendered yesterday, relative to the dura-
ton OF certain patents, and the possible effect
thereof on the companies now engaged in the
promotion OF the phonograph, by reason of
such companies not having acquired rights
under certain Of my inventions, / take this
opportunity to set the matter straight by saw
ing that all my monograph patents, including
not only those Of recent date, but also the fun
damental patents which are affected by this
decision OF the Supreme Court, are covered by
the contracts OF sale and purchase existing be-
tween Mr.. Lippincott myself and the other
parties in interest. Mr.. Lippincott provided
in advance against this very contingency which
has now happened by including in his contract
of purchase not only my more recent patents
and future inventions, but also my earlier and
fundamental patents. THOMAS A. EDISON.
