ties were denounced last night at the
convention of the New York and New
Jersey branches of the National Chris
tian Association, which was held here.
More than one hundred ministers were
in attendance. That secret organiza-
tions are harmful to the Christian
church was the contention of all the
speakers.
The Rev, John A. Westervelt, pastor
of the Third Christian Reformed
Church. outlined in brief the condition
of affairs which he charged existed in
this city, alleging that the societies
had a grasp" which 1t was hard to
loosen. That the field of work is large
which this organization proposes to
take up here was evidenced by the
pastors remarks.
The Rev. DIR. r. NJ. Foster, president
of the association, responded, and made
the address of the evening. He is from
New York city. In opening his address
he said that when a person marries
he ought to resign from his club and
the secret society, too. These societies
rob the men Of their homes, and the
club and lodges ought to be spelled
with four letters, Home" The hus-
band cannot tell his wife the secrets
of Zhis club or lodge, and the wife, II
SHE belongs to a similar body, is in the
same predicament.
Committees were appointed to decide
on a plan of action and report at to-
days session.

Company, in his testimony, stated that,

States Circuit Court, denied the petition
of the Foster Engineering Company ask
ing for an Injunction against Arthur w.
Cash. who Was formerly superintendent
Of the company, to restrain him from
making and selling valves which, the com
pany admits, are of designs different from
those created by Cash while in the EN-
ploy of the petitioners. and which latter
were transferred by him to the Foster
Company. This is the second injunction
denied to the company.
Interest is taken widely In the suit by
both employers and employees because OF
the fact that many employees devise arti-
cles and transfer the patents to the en-
ployers. and the rights in alterations of
the original patents have been In doubt.
This case is expected to settle the division
of opinion.
If the case be carried up in the courts,
1t is expected that the ultimate
decision will establish the rights OF
inventors. after leaving a company's en-
ploy. to improve on patents taken out pre-
viously by them and turned over to the
employers.
Cash Invented a pressure regulating valve
when superintendent of the Foster com
pany, which makes a specially of that kline
of work. Later he branched out for him
self and obtained a patent on a valve
somewhat similar. but with changes great
enough to secure him the patent.
The company then made a motion for a
preliminary injunction restraining him from
making more on the ground of infringe
ment of the first patent, and was denied
The motion was renewed on November 2l,
and again denied. The c step in the
proceedings, If another is taken, will be
