YeIInw Pine Lumber

Washington, Aug. 1.-The Interest
being taken by practical lumber men IN
the conservation OF the forests was Illus
trsted at the semi-snuual meeting OF
the Yellow Pine Manufacturers A'so
citation which was recently held 10
Chicago. The report OF the committee
on the conservation OF the yellow pine
forests received much attention aud was
adopted unanimously. Among the CHIEF
recommendation made by the commit
ice in its report WAS for the cutting BY
lumber men Of their timber by Two
operations with an interval OF from
fifteen to twenty yelrs, the ripe timber
being removed during the first cutting
and TO leave from $500 to 8. 600 feet oil
standing timber on each acre. 1t was
shown by such a method Of numbering
that decided advantage would accrue
to the lumber men through the Increased
growth and consequent gain in tim er
which would be had between the 1fst
snd second cuttings. The association
also adopted The recommendation OF the
committee providing for the appoint
ment Of a committee With power to ac
aud to expeDd funds to cooperate with
the forest service on matters OF education,
forest fires and taxation.

WRIGHT BROTHERS SUE
TO PROTECT INVENTION

In the bill of complaint filed today
the Wrights set forth that their claims
to the sole rights in heavier-than-air
flying machines of this type have been
recognized by the United States govern
ment, which has purchased some of the
machines; while the sovereigns of the
other countries have given similar ac-
acknowledgement"
The bill continues, "the inventions OF
complainants are of great value and util-
ity They constitute the first instance In
the history of the countless attempts to
produce flying machines wherein d
heavier-than-air machine ever made
aerial flights and wherein the machine
was within the control and will of the
operator. Thus the complainants have
given the world the first machine to fly
actually and successfully, and In this
sense their work is a creation or embodi-
nent OF new art, and an epoch In aerial
endeavor, human flight having been for
ages before q synonym for failure and
inpossibility."
Following a meeting of the Aeronautic
society today President Lee s. Burridge
gave out a statement in which the suit
brought by the Wright brothers was de-
fined as friendly process.
'The Wrights are honorary members Of
the Aeronautic society," said Mr.. Bur-
ridge, "and very friendly to us. Their
suit has been brought to determine where
rival aeronauts stand. Up to date, 1888
patents of various types of aeroplanes
have been granted, most of which are
couched in almost Identical phrases or de-
scriptions."
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1909-08-20

New York. August 19.-Wilbur and Or
vile Wright, the aeronauts, today en-
tered suit in the United States circuit
court here against the Aeronautic society
of thfs city, charging infringement Of
patent rights on their aeroplane inven-
tions. The Wrights complain that the So
ciety procured from the Herring-Curtiss
company and from Glenn H. Curtiss fly
ing machines alleged to infringe the
Wrights' patents and secured ;Curtiss to
give public exhibitions for which an ad-
mission was charged.
1t is alleged that the Herring -Curtiss
aeroplane, which the society recently pur-
chased and which has had several try
outs at Mineola, L. l., is violation Of
their patents. The Wrights demand that
the Infringing machine be turned over
to them for destruction and In addition
ask that the court assess damages for
three-fold the amount of whatever losses
they are found to have suffered by rea-
son of the infringement and the public ex-
hibition or rental of the infringing ma
chine. A hearing in the suit will probably
be held early in October.
Aeronautc experts here tonight gener-
ally viewed the suit in the nature of
test case, brought to determine finally
whether the Wright patents cover effect
ually all aeroplanes constructed along
lines similar to theirs.

WAR GAME PLAYED
TO THE FINISH

Boston, August 19-The war game,
which has been conducted in Southeast
ern Massachusetts during the week. ended
today, but whether Boston, which was the
objective point of the invading army un-
der Brig. Gen. Tasker II. Bliss was really
captured theoretically or whether the
Massachusetts troops, commanded by Gen.
William A. Pew succeeded in repulsing
the attack of the reds and blocking the
until the umpires return their verdict.
The verdict Is not expected for some
days.
General Bliss expressed confidence to-
night that he had won the victory and
that the decision of the umpires, when 1t
is ultimately given, will be in his favor.
He declared that he had opened a way to
Boston. On the other hand General Pew
and his lieutenants and some of the UNI
pires and other regular army officers
in the camp declared that the advantage
of the position at the close of hostilities
lay with the blues.
Tonight the head of the army of IN
vssion was at Assonet, mile or two from
Hanover four corners, While the head oil
General Pew's army was not more than
200 wards distant and was said by the
blue officers to occupy a position where

for disbanding the army of the red have

HEAT WAVE OF
FOUR DAYS BROKEN

New Orleans, August 1s.-The hot wave
which has held the southwest in its grip
for the past four days has apparently
been broken Tonight those sections
which have sweltered under the torrid
heat, in many places unprecedented in
its intensity, were visited by cooling
breezes. In some parts of Louisiana and
Mississippi the wind assumed almost the
proportion of a gale, in many instances
accompanied by electrical storms. No
damage has thus far been reported.
