WASHINGTON NOTES
OF CURRENT EVENTS
@PYity the Poor Inventor Says General
Allen, Chief Signal Officer Of the
Army--He Explains

Washington, ID g, Nov ls Pity the
poor inventor ii Their Is anything % be
said Of him, according to General Allen,
chief signal officer Of the army, il Is
that he works hard for nothing In
most eases he pays more to secure his
patents than he gets out Of them, i he
consoles himself with the delusion Chat
be has evolved something new for tho
service Of humanity, he is again wrong
This observation Of General Aliens
was called forth By the fate q patents
on the two most extraordinary inyen-
tions of recent years, both Of which came
within the province Of the signal corps.
They are the flying machine and wire
less telegraphy, Wireless telegraphy
patents have led TO some glory much
litigation and more or less chaos. Tbs
men who proposed to make fortunes
have been grieyously disappointed ANY
amateur can SIT up his instruments

and there are no other laws TO regulate
his actions. No one can DO as we'll az
the discoverer who spent a fortune and
years Of labor to make bis pastme pos
sible.
The value Of the patents Of the
Wright brothers is TO be tested anon
III eases Of trial for infringement. Wheth
er the Wrights VIII be more successfuI
than the wireless inventors Is yet to be
proven. II IS doubtful Efforts will be
made to show that Chanute possessed
All the secrets Of the Wright aeroplane
before the Wirghts built it. Even Prof.
Langley, whose death was to a certain
extent due TO the derision his unsuccess-
FIJI attempts al flying called forth from
certain members Of Congress, Is said to
have known some Of them himself
In view of all this, it Is a question
whether Wilbur and 0rville Wright's
achievements viii be one Of more than
passing glory. If the courts decide that
their patents are merely the fruit Of
others thinking, there Is no reason why
the amateur should not run the risk
Of breaking his neck on a machine Of
his own construction after the pattern
Of the Wright areoplane, just as lie has
been free to dabbIe in wireless teleg-
raphy
The men who make money at inven-
ton are those who design coffee pot ham
dies or aluminium pants buttons. The
aeroplane inventor may have the glory
but TO the former is emolument and
steady income.
