Suit Against the Brownsville
Glass CO. Ended

In Utter Discontinue to The Com
plainants-Had Lied to Their own
Attorneys-Get of by Withdrawing
Suit and Paying Costs-The big
Glass Works will Begin to Make
Glass at Once.
There has been much talk about
the suit brought by the Appert
Glass company in Pittsburg against
the Brownsville company of Morgan
town. The matter has ended by an
ignominious backdown on the part
of the Appert company. The story
as told in the Pittsburg Post is as
follows:
Attorneys for the Appert Glass
Company. plaintiffs in the sensation
al suit against the members of the
Brownsville Company, charging that
members of the latter concern had
confiscated patents belonging to the
plaintiff company, and for which the
plaintiffs had paid 81, 100000 in
stock, asked pc, mission of the court
yesterday to withdraw the action,
and pay all costs in the case. Attor.
ney Thomas w. Patterson for the
Appert concern, said that in cross
questioning his own witnesses, found
that the defendants had not used
the secret lehr or table alleged, and
that there was nothing to prosecute
them for. The action OF the Appert
company in the first instance, when
the suit was brought, created much
surprise, owing to it's sensational
character and their sudden termin
alton of the case, caused no less sur
prise when it became known.
The end OF the suit means much
to the Brownsville company. That
is composed of Pitts
burg men largely. J. Ramsey Speer,
is president, and W. L. Mellon. Is
vice president, Of the concern. 9th
ers connected with it are expert
glass workers. Some time ago, the
company built new plant at Nor
w. Va, where 1t intended
to manufacture wire plate glass.
The glass is made with thin sheet
of wire netting in the center of it,
and by this means, becomes stronger
than ordinary glass, and In case OF
breakage, the broken parts hold to-
gether through the adhesion Of the
wire netting.
The charge of the Appert com
pany was that the lehrs and tables
used by the Brownsville company
were stolen devices owned by them.
This was shown by the evidence to
be mistake. 1t is understood that
the Appert company is in the nature
q combine. IL also owns the Mis-
sippi Glass Company, which makes
the same glass aud practically con
trolled the wire glass trade of the
The Brownsville Company
is the first independent company to
break into this monopoly.
Matters had gone SO far that ar
had been made to start
the Brownsville Company's works to-
morrow. The suit was brought at
time when the last OF the machinery
for the new plant was in Plttsburg
and about to be shipped here. The
suit was to prevent Its use or ship
ment. Now that the case is ended
the officials of the company say that
the original plans will be carried out.
The new plant in Morgantown Is
strongly fortified, being near fuel and
raw material of all kinds. 1t has
fine plant covering three acres OF
ground and abundant capital TO carry
on the business. A number of patents
Of late date are owned by the new
and will be developed with
the starting OF the new factory.

The Best Advertisements.

One may be laconic In his writing,
or he may be prolix. and yet 10 either
case be obscure. Clear cut, intelIigi-
BILE expression depends upon neither
form. In both cases it is up to the
writer.
People think quickly, act quickly,
read quickly. They avoid, especially
in business communications, what Is
verbose. They do not wish beauties
OF rhetoric, but what will appeal
readily to the understanding.
The best advertisements are tn use
which are marked by clear, concise,
clear cut sentences.

RICH STRIKE IN M0HAVE.
New District Discovered Near Peach Springs in Which Remarkably
 Rich Ore Has Been Found.

Peach Springs, April 4.-(Editor Journal Miner. )-Quite a rich strike has been made twelve miles south of Peach Springs in Mohave county, Arizona. Ore has been found in the contact, between the slate and gran ite, running thirty per cent in copper and S130 in gold to the ton. On one claim free gold has been found in a 55-foot shaft. There are ten claims in the group, all carrying free gold. One claim showing a 3foot ledge carrying SEQ in gold and 30 per cent copper; another with a free-gold ledge running from S62.50 to S130 per ton; also porphyry ledge showing good values in gold.
 Specimens running as high as $500 per ton have been found on the claims. In Wright creek, nearby, there is plenty of water for all pur- poses, including milling, etc, also plenty of timber for fuel purposes. The ten claims are the only prospects in that portion of the country, and the outlook of the camp is flattering indeed. There is a good wagon road from Peach Springs to the camp. The lucky locators are Wm. Tucker of Ash Fork, Wm. Crowell, J. Nj. Lit tie and D. NJ. Alexander of Williams.
