WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Naval ord
nance officers have not enough informa-
ton regarding the latest decision in the
Seabury-Dashlell gun patent suit TO tell
waether tho Government will gain any
thing or rot. The Government has been
paying Lieutenant Dashiell a royalty of
Sl25 for each OF the weapons manufac-'
tured under his patent on account of a
decision from the Attorney-General, rem
dered several years ago, which declared
that a naval officer was entitled TO make
inventions not in the line OF his duties.
At the time Dashiell secured his patent
for breech mechanism he was not on
ordnance duty The Driggs-Schroeder
rapid-hre gun is also the invention OF
naval officers, but 1t is manufactured by
a private firm, so the question of royalty
does not arise while DAshielps mechanism
is made at the Washington navy-yard.
Naval officials express the hope that the
effect of the latest judicial decision will
relieve them Of further payments 10 Da-

COULDN'T FIND PULLMAN.
The Marshal Believes That He Give Him
the slip-Dsbs' Testimony.

CHICAGO, Feb. 6.--It was expected
that George NJ. Pullman would take the
stard at the opening OF the Dets trial
this morning but the Marshal reported
:hdt he could not find him, and that 1t
was his belief that the palace car pres
ident was i'm his office part of the day
yesterday, but refused 10 allow the oiil-
Ger to gain admission TO his presence.
Later On. IL is claimed Mr.. Pullman took
a train for Florida.
Eugene V. Oebs was the principal VIII
ness of the day. Debs said his salary as
President of the A. II. u. is 5000 per
year. He said the object of the orgdnl-
cation OF the \. X. T.. was TO unite war
ring factions, and make their cause a
common one against the General Man
ayers Association. This was made neces-
sary by the fact that the large roads
were constantly swallowing up the sH all
ones, and movement was Oh foot TO
reduce wages. When he first heard OF
the troubles at Pullman, Mr.. Deb5 sent
Nlce-President Howard there, and told
him to avert the threatened strike, II
possible.
He related the proceedings OF tho a. X.
L. convention In detail, and said that the
strike went into effect June 18th ana
was declared off August %. He stated
further that during the continuance OF
the strike he at no time was guilty or
any violation OF the Federal law. nor did
he at any time, from the first meeting or
the A. r. z. until the end Of the strike,
countenance any acts of violence or ad-
wise the violation of the State laws or
any city ordinance. He emphaucalIy
stated that at all meetings his words
were to the effect that under no circum-
stances must mail trains be lntertered
with. His testimony was not concluded
when court adjourned.
Before court adjourned Attorney Greg
ory for the defence. requested Judge
Grosscup TO order an investigation con-
cerning the constable's inability TO serve
