PATENT DECISION AWAITED
Joseph Aimon and George Williams
Contestinq Riuht of Tool.

A patent matter is pending In
Washington of interest to Montpelier
and Mortified people and on its
| final determination rests the owner
ship OF valuable drill. Evidence is
now being gathered by both sides to
present to the commissioner of pen
sions in Washington, ID. G.
In May, 1907, Joseph .Almon of
Mortified. applied for patent on a
tool for cutting drill holes and grooves
in rocks with the object of breaking
the stone in any direction desired. Mr.
Almon received information from
Washington in September that his pat
ent had been allowed and that it would
be issued to him on receipt Of the final
fee OF $40 which he had six months
to send. Mr.. Almon took his time
about RENTING and was surprised
one day to receive in his mails let
ters from Washington stating that
another patent was asked for tool
very similar TO this and that the mat
ter would be held up pending an in
yestigation of the interference" This
application for patent was made by
Information was then called for.
Each side was asked to furnish to the
department statement Of when he
conceived the idea, made the draw
ings, and worked out the design and
employed it, and when he called it to
the attention of others.
Mr.. Almon claimed to have tested
the idea in 1900 and Mr.. Williams In
1905. Mr.. Almon had tried the drill
ON the quarries in Calais.
Each side will now furnish the de-
partment with sworn affidavits of
witnesses so that the priority of the
invention may be determined. Mr..
Almon will have until March 13 to file
his evidence; Mr.. Williams until April
10 and Mr.. Almon in rebuttal until
May 10.
Although Mr.. Almon conceived the
idea some years ago he did not care
to give It a practical demonstration
outside OF private test until he had
secured his patent. Since last May
he has manufactured some of the
drills and has placed them on the
quarries in Barre town where they
have been found to do good work and,
in fact, all that was claimed for them.
The drill will cut a groove In the
stone so that when the blast is set
of 1t will break the stone in the di-
rection the groove extends and not
shatter il or send it in an unknown
direction. The value OF the drill will,
therefore, be appreciated.
