brief address in honor of the completion

of the socialists responded, rising from
their seats and cheering heartily. Upon
seeing that the socialists retained their
seats, the other members we're greatly
eNclted, hoWling and shouting at the
socialists to get out. These cries how
ever, had no effect upon the social dem
ocratic members who remained seated.
Fully five minutes elapsed before the
tumult could be queled and order restored.
The socialists during the disorder re-
torted by calling the other members row
dies and making use OF many other in
vectives. The bell was rung for order and

members.

st. Louis, Mo-, Dec. 6.-Diphtheria is rag

board of health is indignant at the action
of several physicians in giving the disease
a wrong name when filling out death certi-

be an agreement between the physicians

SOMETHING ABOUT CIGARETTE
MACHINES

a hearing in a very interesting patent
case began before Judge Wheeler at the
Brooks House Tuesday 1t appears on the
docket as that of the Bonsack Machine
company VS.. Henry c. Elliot. The COM
plainant company is of Salem, Va, and
the defendant is of New York city. The
case was entered in the United States
court for the southern district of New
York, and is for alleged infringements on
the BOnsack machine for making cigar
cites. Three fundamental patents are in
vOlved in the case: First, the Hook patent.
for making cigarettes continuously and
progressively; second, the Emery patent,
for the use of a belt in the process, and
the BOusaCk patent for carrying the wrap
ping belt through the tube through which
the cigarette passes in the process of man
ufacture. A fourth patent relates to the
putting in of the filler. Portions of the
different machines were brought here as
exhibits in the case. They are built for
very delicate and exact work, and have
been observed with much interest by visit
ors to the court room.
The common idea of the manufacture of
a cigarette is that of taking piece of OBJ
long paper and rolling it around the to-
bacco, as is done by hand. In point of
fact the machines used by the manufact-
urers take a reel or ribbon of thin, delicate
paper and pass it through the several
stages of filling, folding over the edges,
FASTING and cutting off, all part of one
continuous process; and the mechanical
motions which are necessary to do this
perfectly and successfully are exceedingly
nice ones, requiring absolute precision in
the machine. One machine makes from 220
to 270 cigarettes minute, and the average
product of the machine is 100, 900 a day.
By the old hand process an expert operator
could make not to exceed 1900 cigarettes
in day. The cost of making by hand
was 90 cents to Sl.35 per thousand, accord
| ing to the quality. The cost OF making by
machinery is five cents per thousand. Last
years production of cigarettes by the
American Tobacco company reached be-
tween three billion and four billion, and
the saving by the use of the Bonsack ma
chine was 100000. The tobacco COM
pany pays an annual royalty to the Bon
sack company of between 100000 and
$3,0OO,000 We are sorry for the people
who have condemned themselves to smoke
cigarettes, but figures are figures.
Distinguished counsel are employed in
the case. For the complainants Duncan Il
| Page of New York appear as solicitors and
| Samuel A. Duncan and NJ. b. Philip are
of counsel. For defendants Cowen, Dick
erson, Nicoll and Brown appear as sol cit
Ors and Edwin II. Brown is of counsel. II.
F. Newbury of New York appears as ex-
| pert for cOmplainants and Charles +. Eos
tor of Washington for defendants. The
suit was brought in February, '92. The
evidence covers 633 printed pages.

Little Murphy a "Giamt. 8"

Diminutive VIM. Murphy, the ex-Yale
captain and the eX-Brattleboro short stop,
will be Giant. That is, Murphy affixed
his signature Saturday to a New York
league club contract He will report for
duty April l. His salary is not stated, but
it is understood to be large. Murphy be-
gan his base ball career at Exeter In the
preparatory school, where he played three
years, he was not considered a particularly
brilliant player When he went to Yale he
had a definite ambition to be captain of
the Yale nine. He was at first only a sub
stitute outfelder, but in an important game
his timely hitting won him an assured
place, and later he was assigned to short
stop. In his junior year he won the Gov
eted place as Yale captain, and filled it
with 81 gnal ability. Last year he declined
a reelection, and, owing to some feeling
which had arisen, at first refused to play
on the varsity nine, but joined the Yale
law school team, on which were Bowers,
Norton and O'Neill his old associates at
Brattleboro. Later in the season Murphy
was induced to play with Yale varsity
In the three championship games against
Harvard, Murphy hit Jack" Highlands,
being almost the only player on either
side whose batting could be relied upon.
As has been stated in The Phoenix, Muir
ply graduated from Yale last June an
honor man. During the summer he play
ed at Northampton and New Bedford,
Last fall he entered the Yale medical
school, intending to complete the three
years course in two years.
None of the many players connected
with the Bra,tlebOrO team in the past few
years have made more friends here than
Murphy in the seasons of '9l and '02. In
the first year he was lively short stop,
one of the speediest of base runners, and
Il hard, sure hitter, In '92 he wSs
much stronger player than in ~. Not
withstanding the uneven mtield on the To-
cal ground Murphy had a fielding average
of $50, In batting only three players-Col-

whose percentage was ,306. In base run
