Henry Lacombe, of the United States
circuit court for the southern skstrSct
OF New York, stated that this setson
was taken because of the judges tail
ure to have rendered a final secision
in a suit which has been before the
courts Tor FL years. The original salt
Mr.. Watt said. was an action for snn-
ages brought by John Dubois, Of Blu
Dois, Pa, in 1884, against the cities OF
New York and Brooklyn for an In
firing ment upon his patent Mr. Du-
bois, who was a wealthy manufaetnser
and dealer in iron and humber. h said
to have been the inventor OF n esf-
ferdam, an infringement upon whSeh.
IL ID alleged, was used In the con
stuctton Of the piers OF the Brsohlyn
bridge. He brought suit, and, accord
Ing to MI. Watt, was awarded dansAxes
In the sum Of $685., 200. The case vas
appealed. and has been at varssus
times contested In the United States
circuit court, and finally reached the
United States circuit court of appeals,
which tribunal last November sent It
back to the circuit court. Mr.. Watt
says that while twelve charges are
presented to congress, the main ALE
CATION is that Judge Laeombe has
been instrumental In preventing a
final decree being handed down In
the litigation. Mr.. Dubois died some
time ago, and the contest is now being
made by John E Dubois, executor Of
the inventors estate.
