court, rendered at FRANKFORT, KY"
last Saturday, all the building and
loan associations in that state are
either knocked out or more or less
crippled. The court holds that the

cent. interest, including dues and
the legal rate, is unconstitutional
1t is also held that all the interest,
and even dues, in excess OF 6 per

u to Il per cent. in dues and inter-
est, are entitled to recover or be
credited by all in excess of g per
cent. interest.

police that the session today would

q vote. II was the first definite move
ment made thus far toward bringing
the debate 10 a close.
Mr.. Aiiisons first proposition was Tor
vote at O'Clock today. but this was
objected TO by Mr.. Pettus (Ala.). Then
he proposed vote some time before ad-
Journment today. which was objected 10
by Mr.. Morgan. The suggestion or TO-

Trolley Patents AnnulIed.

New York, July 23.-In the circuit
court Of appeals for this circuit decis-
ion was handed down yesterday in the
case Of Thomson Houston Electrical
company VS.. Hoosick Railway company.
In this decision. which was written by
Judge Wallace. all OF the judges concur
ring, the court held that the Van De-
peele trolley patent is invalid by reason
Of the same invention having been de-
scribed and disclosed In an earlier patent
to Van Depeele. The decision therefore
invalidates the patent because IL was
claimed to cover broadly the idea OF the
undercurrent trolley on an overhead
wire. The courts finding affects all the
trolley railways OF the country, al the
patent may be now used by any one
without paying royalty.
