A THOUSAND oYCLERs IN LINE.
The Parade Last Night Advertising
the Philharmonic Concert.

The bicycle parade which was advertised
for last evening was the largest the city
has seen. The Philharmonic Club furnished
over 500 Japanese lanterns for the wheel
men. A very conservative estimate puts the
number Of wheelmen In line at 1000. The
route was as follows: North GA Meridian
from the Circle to Seventeenth street. east
TO Pennsylvania. south PENNSYLVANIA to
Ohio. west on Ohio to Meridian, around the
Circle to Washington street, thence west 10
Capitol avenue, north TO Washington, east
TO Broadway, south to Massachusetts ave-
nue., thence through Ciifford avenue to Wood
run through 10 Washington street and We st
on Washington to Meridian The parade
was for the purpose of advertising the con-
cent to be given by the Philharmonic Club
for the benefit of the cycle path at Wild
wood Park tomorrow evening. This con-
cert will, be high class. and yet will appeal
to the popular taste
Friday evening the wheelmen of the city
are requested to meet again at 7:15 O'clock
atsthe monument and join the parade to the
park. with a band OF music in the lead.

RALYA DEMANDS HEAVY DAMAGES
Was to Receive Royalties on n Saw

Was TO Receive Royalties on saw
Patent from L. G. Atkins g. Co.
A suit for 100000 damages was filed in the
Superior Court yesterday against E. c. At
kins & Co. by John Ralya, of Anderson. The
claim of the plaintiff Is that he sold to E.
c. Atkins e Co. a valuable patent for which
he was 10 receive royalty on all saws man
ufactured and sold under 1t, and that the
company has defrauded him by simply hold
ing the patent rights In allegiance, and there
by leaving a market for other saws made
by the company without having to compete
with saws made under the Ralya patents.
According to the complaint and copy of
the contract which was filed with the COM
plant, contract was entered into May 6.
1857, between E. c. Atkins & Co. and John
Ralya, whereby Ralya assigned to the saw
company certain patents which were after
ward issued, on which proceedings were
pending in the patent office at the time Of
the making of the contract. The conditions
OF the assignment were that Z. G. Atkins &
Co. were to use due diligence in making and
selling the saws under the patents, and that
Ralya was TO receive five cents a Hneal foot
TO be his payment for the patent rights.
Statements were to be made every four
months showing the amount OF sales, and
within sixty days Ralya was 10 receive his
payment of five cents foot. Ralya claims
that he has never received a single state
ment of the amount of such saws manufac-
ture6 and has not received any money In
payment of royalties. For this he claims
that he has been damaged TO the extent Of
$50 000
The second claim, on which $1,000 is de-
manded, is that soon after entering into the
contract with Ralya z. c. Atkins & Co. be-
gan making saw similar TO the Cyclone .
the name OF the Ralya saw, which was put
the market to take the place OF the "CJY
Clone" and that the Ralya saw was thereby
taken off the market 1t Is claimed that the
manufacture OF this saw damaged Ralya to
the extent Of $1,000.
1t Is further claimed that certain Ander-
another brand Of the Ralya saw, from L. G..
Atkins & Co., and that when delivered they
were inferior in workmanship on account of
the failure of Z. G. Atkins & Co. TO properly
temper and set them. This injured the rep
utation of the Ralya patents TO the extent
of $40. 900. according to the complaint.
The other claim for which damages are
asked Is that In 1889 Ralya went to e. G..
Atkins a. Co. and demanded that the COM
pany either manufacture and push the sale
OF his eaws called for in the contract, or
release him and allow him to have the saws
manufactured elsewhere. He stated at the
time that he had an opportunity to dispose
of his patents foT $4,000 of the stock of a
company which had capital of $50 900. He
wanted to accept this offer. He says Z. c.
Atkins, president of the company. replied
'"The patent is a valuable one and we will
manufacture the saws as agreed in the con-
in the new company" For the failure OF f.
c. Atkins & Co. TO allow him to place his
patent where he could make something out
of it Ralya demands $4,000.

It is stated on good authority that on a
new schedule which the Pennsylvania Com
pany will introduce in short time the time
Of train No. 20, the fast vestibuled express
from st. Louis to New York. will be COM
s.derably reduced, and that one section OF
the train will carry the east-bound mail.
No. % Is at present one OF the fastest trains
in the Pennsylvania system, and makes the
run from st. Louis to New York in twenty
nine hours and thirty minutes. The run
ming time from ST. Louis TO Pittsburg is a
little over eighteen hours, and on the new
schedule this will be reduced at least one
hour, so that No. % east will make about
the same time that IS made by No. IL west.
The recent improvements on the Panhandle
VIII enable this train TO run as regularly on
schedule time after the change Is made as
1t is running now on the present schedule,
and the records show that 1t is hardly ever
a minute late. This Will make the running
time from Indianapolis to New York twen-
ty hours and thirty minutes, ten hours
quicker than the trains OF the Pennsylvania
lines covered the distance twelve years ago,
and five hours quicker than six years ago.
