Decision by judge Wheeler.

Judge Wheeler has rendered his de-
clsion' in the case of Wykcoff, Seamans
& Benedict, manufacturers of the
Remington typewriter, against the
Howe Scale company of Rutland, of
1886, which was heard in the Brooks
House several weeks ago. The suit
was for the infringement of the rights
Of the plaintiff in the use of the name
Remington. The Howe Scale COM
pany were the selling agents for the
machine. The decree is for the plain
tiff. In 1898, Zolmon G. Sholes pro-
duced a typewriter and later a com
pany was formed known as the Y. G..
Sholes company. In this company
were two Remington brothers living
jim Chicago. In 1894 the companN
name was changed to the Remington
Sholes company. and later their type
writer was placed upon the market as
the "Rem-Sho." This. it was claimed
by the manufacturers of the Reming-
ton, interferred with the sale of the
regularly manufactured Remington by
misleading people who desired to pur-
chase the original Remington for
which they had established a trade.
The opinion sustains the contention of
the plaintiffs.

Ell Dorado, Kan. July 8.--A new fea-

said he wanted to buy a farm. After
running around town Friday morning
he was taken out to look at land by q
real estate dealer and practically settled
on purchasing the Zeke Cooper farm

On the morning of the Fourth in dis
cussing the Morrison case he made some
very queer remarks about Judge Ak
man and others. He also went to the
attorneys for Miss Morrison and said he
and his wife were driving past the Cas-
tie home the morning of the tragedy
and heard Mrs. Castle call Jessie Morri-
son in. Also that he would give a check
for $500 to assist in the prosecution. The
attorneys paid no attention to him.
He acted so strangely and talked so
much that a warrant was issued and
he was arrested at Zeke Cooper's Fri
day evening and placed in jail. Satur-
day Major VandeVer says the man told
him his name was A. J. Wilson, that he
lives in Logansport, Ind, that he had
read about the case and came out here
to get something out Of it. He finally
said that he knew nothing about the
case and would leave town if he was
