A DECISION ON PATENTS:
Which Deals a Blow al Exclusive Rights
Now HeId on Many Inventions.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The United
States supreme court dealt a severe blow
to a number of patents, including, it is
said, the Edison quadruplex telegraph, his
microphone patents and certain of the Bell
telephone patents by decision rendered
by Justice Blachford in the case of Henry
Heber and Boyle, administrator against
the Nelson Manufacturing company,
brought here from Missouri. In this case
the court holds that the American patent
was void because the English patent had
lapsed.
Ii is said at the patent Office that the
point which the case decided will operate
to destroy Edison's three microphone
patents and his quadruplex telegraph
patent, and will leave the Bell Telephone
company after January next to stand
wholly on the Berliner patent

WIRES MUST GO.
Those on 18th Street Between F and
III Ordered Down.

The United States Electric Lighting Com
pany will have to prepare to put its wires
on 10th street between + and H streets
northwest under ground
Some time ago they asked permission to
replace certain dangerous poles and on
looking into the matter it was found that
the company had conduit on this street
irto which the wires could be placed, and
the opinion of the district attorney was
asked as to the power of the Commissioners
TO compel them to use this conduit for
tfeir wires. The attorney came out strong
in his opinion that the Commissioners could
and should require the Electric Lighting
Company to put their wires under ground
at that point. and now the Commissioners
have taken the necessary step and decided
that the overhead wires must go.
They acted on the following recommends
ton received from Capt. Fiebeger in re-
gard to the matter:
II have the honor to state tina on Octo-
Der D. 1893, the United States Electric
Lighting Company asked authority to re-
place certain poles which they reported to
be in dangerous condition. On examination
IL was found that the United States Elec-
trio Lighting Company had a conduit on
this street into which the wires could be
placed. The matter was referred to the at
torney as to the power of the Commission
ers to compel them to take down the wires
and place them in the conduit The attor-
ney has decided that the Commissioners
have the power. and I would recommend
that an order be issued to the United States
Electric Lighting Company directing them
to remove all poles and overhead wires
on 18th street northwest between F and n
streets on or before the LIST day Of Feb
ruary, 1894"
This recommendation by Capt. Feibeiger
was approved by the Commissioners late
eJterday afternoon.

UBnecessary and Dangerous,

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
On Saturday afternoon last, Just as the
departments were closing, and when the
tide of travel was at it's highest a gang of
laborers were put to work chipping out the
concrete pavement at the intersection of
18th and G streets, just at the street car
transfer station. Man, woman and child
cars, and vice versa, had to run the gaunt-
let of fusillade of flying concrete chips,
that were alike dangerous to the eyes and
face, and could easily have blinded or scar
red one for life. Such an inexcusable,
brutal, public be ID" piece of business
it has rarely been my lot to witness There
was no necessity for ii. The pavement could
he ge waited for few days, when public
trtvel was less, and nobody need have besn
endangered. At no time on a street like
that should such work be done between the
hours of 8 and ), and some manner or
method should be devised by which no chips
should fly, such as striking a wedge with a
sledge hammer. ! called the attention OF
the policeman on duty to the case. He saw
the inhumano proceeding, but was powerless
to interfere Now, cannot this be prohibited
for the future? Why should some irrespon-
sible contractor be allowed such license as
this? Why is not some effort made to avoid
this dangerous work by not allowing axes
suggested, the hammer and wedge One
would think that common humanity would
impel a contractor to adopt this method
but anyway, he should be forced to do It,

came temporary victor and then Dawson
All at once Dawson fell with a knife wound

crime hanging over him. He went to church
frequently and conducted himself IN an or
derry manner A day or two ago the sister
or the nights victim came to Georgetown
and happened to go to church. There she
saw and recognized the slayer of her BROTH

steps were taken to place him under arrest.

further than the frequent protestation that
the deed was committed in selr-derense.

Delaware Was Not Ahead.

10 the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The article from the Baltimore Herald on
the publication of the war records, copied
In Wednesdays Star. closes with the state
ment that Delaware furnished more men in
proportion to its military population than
any other state.
This must be a mistake, for according to
the report Of the adjutant general the quota
of Delaware was 1885. and she furnished
but 12.2S4. or 1,651 less than her quota while
Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, ILL
nois and Kansas. each furnished consider
ably more than theor quota. Even the de-
spised District of Columbia excelled Della
ware In this respect. for while her quota
was 1913. or but IS more than Delawares $,
she furnished 1854, or $3.50 more than
Delaware, and which was 1851 more than
her quota. In fact. only one state excelled
or equaled the District in that respect. Let
the truth of history be preserved.
