CLOSING FLAT CASES.
The Occupants Want Possession I'm
til Damages Are Paid.

Two matters, the outgrowth of the de-
cision of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the Potomac Flat cases were
presented to the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict yesterday in general term. The court
was presided over by Chief Justice Bing-
ham, with Mr.. Hagner as associate JUS
tice.
A proposed general order on behalf of
the occupants of property along the river
front presented. by Messrs. Lambert &
Lambert asking that they be entitled to
remain in possession until they have re-
ceived compensation for damages they may
have sustained by reason of the decision
of the Supreme Court of the United States,
and that in cases where the former holders
have rented or leased their property to
others, that pending the litigation they
shall be entitled to collect rent as here
tofore.
After hearing brief arguments by the at
torneys named, John Selden. William F.
Mattingly, Webb & Webb, for the claim
ants, and Assistant District Attorney Hugh
T. Taggart for the Government, the court
decided to postpone further consideration
of the matter until the next term of court.
The matter of the disposition of certain
money allowed to the heirs of William
Easily by the Supreme Court of the United
States was also presented by Messrs. Lam
bert G. Lambert. According to the decree
of the upper court. s7,123.72 was to be
paid over to the trustees of his estate.
Because of the fact that the trustees are
located In different States far apart, the
attorneys submitted a proposition that the
money be paid to the trustees living in
this city. Final disposition OF this matter
was postponed until Wednesday next.

effect of each landing on either contes-

seen without difficulty. So exciting is the

BRITISH eUNMAKERs, DEMAND.
The Armstrong Peepie Want $40, 900
From American Naval Officers.

The British gunmaking corporation of
Sir W. G. Armstrong Whitworth & Co.
filed two suits at law yesterday against Of
ficers of the United States Navy, claiming
damages for the alleged infringement of
certain patents in connection with the
construction of army and navy big guns.
In one of the suits Admiral Charles oNeii,
chief of the Bureau OF Ordnance OF the
Navy Department; Alexander H. MoCor-
mick. commandant at the Washington
navy yard, and Commander Edwin c. Pen
dleton, Superintendent Of the naval gun
shops, are named as defendants, as in
dividuals. In this suit the plaintiff cor
poration claims $4,000 as damages for ac-
cumulated royalties in the manufacture of
certain kind of gun used upon several of
the battleships owned by the United States.
In the other suit only Admiral o'Neil
and Commander Pendleton are named as
defendants. For the same cause as in the
first suit $4,000 damages are claimed.
The litigation is the outgrowth of the al
legged infringement of patent owned by
the plaintiff. 1t is claimed this patent was
granted by the United States in 1888 for a
certain contrivance in connection with the
construction of large guns. 1t is alleged
that the contrivance referred to was in
vented by Ralph 7. Brankston, who as
signed all his rights and interests to Arm
strong, Mitchell & Co., who in turn sold it
to the plaintiff corporation. The invention
which is causing all the trouble is known
as an Improvement in the trunnion bear
ings for ordnance and is said TO be most
effective in the moving of heavy ordnance.
1t is said to be a great saving in both time
and labor.
Sir w. G. Armstrong, Whitworth & Co.
are represented by William Stone Albert
and William d. Baldwin. The former,
when seen last night, would not say any
thing in reference to the suit further than
that it was necessary to bring it against
the defendants as individuals from the
fact that the suit could not be brought
against the United States Government. In
such cases, however, where the defendants
are agents for and acting for the Govern
ment in the event that judgment is OBJ
tanned by them the United States, through
an appropriation by Congress, is expected
to pay the bill. The immediate cause for
these suits is that the Government has re-
fused to pay the royalty demanded for its
use of the patented trunnion bearings for
guns on some of the battleships.

Boer leaders made for this point. Accord
ing to Sir William Butler, ne had about
sixty men with him; and when he arrived
quite near it, with his party still undis-
covered, he detected a picket of several
soldiers, who were standing in an exposed
position, unconscious of the near neigh
borhood of their foes. The Boer leader
ordered a number of his men to hold their
rifles at the present step back out OF
cover, and fire a rapid volley. The ma
neuvre was skillfully executed: the
whole picket was clean swept away, and
in a few minutes more the Beers had got
the key of the position in their hands.
By this success they had turned the left
of the British troops. who were holding
the northern face of the rim, and took
them in the flank. The troops thus sud-
denly surprised fell back from the rim.

abandoned positions.
