American Wins
Patent Suit in
German Court
First Case Arising Under Convention
Signed August l Decides Favor
ably to Inventor.

LEIPsIc, Nov. G.-The imperial su-
preme court today rendered a decision IN
a patent ease in which it Interpreted tbe
patent agreement between German and
the United States in favor Of an Ameri-
can company, which has a branch OFFICE
in Berlin. This branch office secured let
tiers of patent under the German law ON
an invention, but it failed to place the
Invention on the market within three
years, the time specified by the German
statute for so doing. Thereupon a Ger
man brought suit to vacate the patent
rights and the patent office decided in
his favor.
The American firm. however, took an
appeal to the imperial supreme court. and
while awaiting a decision transferred the
patent rights to the parent ompan in
the United States.
The decision OF the court today declared
that the patent office had wrongfuliy re-
voked the letters OF patent and must re-
new them as the German-Amertean agree
ment guaranteed reciprocal treatment OF
patents.

HOMOR IN COAL LAND CAST
Seattle Banker, in His Testimony,
Says Cunningham Did it All.
HE ONLY FURNISHES MONEY
Took Claim Mt Promoter sOlicita-
tIOn and Signed All Affidavits
Brought Him without
Reading Them.

SEATTLE. Wash, Nov. N.-Humor was
injected into the Cunningham coal land
inquiry Friday when Horace c. Henry,
the Seattle banker and railroad builder,
placed on the stand by the
defense and naively admitted that he had
Joined the claimants, without knowing any
thing about the proposition and that he
had signed numerous affidavits without
knowing what they contained.
II got so used to signing a~ffidavits tina /
just signed anything that Cunningham
asked me to-" said Mr.. Henry. Henry said
he was approached by Cunningham in 1905.
Cunningham told him that c. J.. Smith and
former Governor Moore Of Washington
were interested in the claims n asked
IL Henry wanted to file on one.
Il told him to go ahead and put me in
said the witness. II told him that IL he
wanted any money to draw on me. He
always did. 1 did not pay any attention
to the claims or what the other claimants
were doing because 1 was too busy build
ing railroads in 1893 l took the contract to
build more than 800 miles Of the coast TX

II did not hsve/anything to do with the
Guggenheim negotiations and did not know
that they were being carried on. Later
when l heard about the Guggenhein
proposition, I Thought that It was all right
1 knew that It would cost close to 10000 OC
to build a railroad and docks to handle
the coal. and 1 knew that one man could
not do It alone. When the GugEenheim
negotiations fell through we organized the
Behring River Railway company. We did

Mr.. Henry was shown an affidavit
signed by him. in which 1t was stated
that he knew most OF the claimants.
That statement Is false" said Henry.
II know only three OF four of these men.
This shows that I signed affidaTtts with
out looking at them. Cunningham brought
CLAWS to my office and asked me to sign
the affidavit. They said It was all right
and signed it. I did not read It over"
Throughout his testimony Mr.. Henry
frequently said he could not remember
what passed between him and Cunningham
and hal he never paid any attention "a

made upon him by Cunningham and taking
1t for granted that everything was all

SLUMP EXPERIENCED
IN BUILDING PERMITS

There was quite a slump in the build
ing record the past week as compared
to previous weeks this month, but Build
ing Inspector a. b. Iirth declares that
he is after several contractors and own
crs Of large buildings to induce them to
take out permits for buildings now in
process of construction, which viii swell
the total for the month and bring it up
near that of last month.
There are several large buildings now
going up in the city for which permits
have not vet been taken out and rs soon
as they come in it will make a great
difference in the total for the month.
During the week Just closed only six
teen permits were issued and the total
value of the buildings which they repre-
sent is $35.150. In the previous week
the total value of buildings for which
permits were issued was S47 800.

FINANCIAL AND BUILDING ACTIVITIES OF SALT LAKE CITY
JOHN 7. DONNElLAR
MAKES BIG PURCHASE
No Town Equal to Salt Lake,
Is the View of Mr..
DOnnellan.

A deal has Just been conSummatcd
by which the Stowe s. Palmer Real
Estate company sold TO John Il. DON
ncllan tho northeast corner OF Fourth
South and Third East streets. The
property was owned by several mem.
bcrs of the Ritter family and il was
for them that Stowe 4 Palmer made
the sale. The proposition was submit
ted to Mr.. Donnclan who, after IN.
vcstigatiOn, decided that he would look
into the opportunities at Los Angeles,
San Diego and elsewhere IN southern
California before making any further
investment in Salt Lake real estate,
What Mr.. Donnclan thinks of rcla
tive merits of real estate opportunities
in southern California and Salt Lake
City is shown by the fact that after
looking into conditions down there for
several days he wired Stowe s. Palmer
an offer on the property in Salt Lake
City. He was informed that the price
of the property had been advanced dur
ing hIs absence, but in spite of this, af-
ter some communication by wire, he
expressed his willingness to pay the
advanced price, which was approx
mately $4,000. The deal was then
closed.
Mr. Donnellan is highly satisfied
with his purchase, having become con
WINGED that man can do more with
his money buying real estate in Salt
Lake City than anywhere else in the
country.

GREAT ACTIVITY
IN REAL ESTATE
East and Southeast Benches
Are Proving Popular
With Buyers.
FEDERAL HEIGHTS STILL

Considering Season, the Realty
Market Is Breaking All
Records.

While there is much activity in real
estate and building in the north and
northeast benches, many are also look
ING TO the southeast bench, where some
of the most beautiful subdivisions of
the city are located, among them being
College View addition, University
Heights, Westminster Heights and Sun
nyside and Idlewild additions.
University Heights was only placed
on the market a week ago by the
Meeks & Mccartney Real Estate com
pany, aud during the week at least fifty
people who visited the addition eS-
pressed their intention of buying prop
crty for the erection of homes Nearly
thirty lots were sold during the week
also Among the buyers was Charles
A. Tying, secretary, treasurer and gen
eral manager Of the Irrigated Lands
company, and tho owner of consid-
cradle real estate property IN this clty.
Mr.. Tyng bought four lots, situated at
the corner of Roosevelt avenue and
Fifteenth East street. Mr.. Tying Will
build modern bungalow on this prop
crty. Other purchasers during the week
were Gerald r. Ycarsley, j. \, sum
mer, C. D. Mcdonald ". 4. Hamilton
of Helper, George T. Mack of the
BOSTON
liam Moebest, Miss josie Boline and
Mrs. 3. Harris.
All of the lots on College View ad
dition have recently been sold by the
Meeks & Mccartney firm, and building
has been commenced there. However
it is not likely that much will be done
in this line until spring.
Tho appearance Of Westminster
Heights is now credit TO the city.
Many beautiful homes have been erect
ed on the property, and the grading
Of the roads, curbing and guttering
and other improvements have been COM
pleted This subdivision was placed on
the market about two years ago by the
Westminster Investment company, and
now it is one of the most pleasing parts
Of the whole city.
On Southeast Bench.
Despite the cool weather of the last
week, the A. \. Humphries Real Es-
tate company reported considerable ac-
tivity on the southeast bench, A num-
Der of lots were sold by that firm on
both Sunnyside and Idlewild additions
Mable Root of Coalville, Francis Abbott
and Lillian D. Price have purchased
three lots apiece IN Sunnyside addition,
and J. B. Miner, Margaret y. Hume
and l. D. Putnam have bought three

before.
The need Of the Thirteenth East

as the new subdivisions on the east
bench are opened up. and it is hoped
that this will be reality next spring
The east bench is an especially de-
sirable location for residences, and with

things are humming at Federal Heights,
for which the firm of Stowe & Palmer
has the agency. Although property
prices in Federal Heights are consid.
cred by the owners to be unusually low
in comparison with the value of i'm

in that locality, there has been no at
tempt TO raise the price of building
lots there except In the case of the
general advance made recently on the
completion of the general scheme of i'm

justified bv the large amount of money

place pleasant, even after many other
localities can boast only bare branches
and brown grass plots, is thought TO
have justified an increase in prices IN
order TO place the building lots there
on a par with those in less favored
localities. Even now, it is pointed out,
the prices are less than those charged
