Charges Of plagiarism are made
against Joseph Medill Patterson in a
suit filed in the United States circuit
court here by Eugene Quirk, a Chi
cago newspaper man, and Mary /.
Quirk, who demand $4,000 damages,
charging that the defendant used the
main theme of a novel entitled Drift
ing" which they wrote, for the found
alton of his play, The Fourth Estate"
now being produced at the StudebaSer
theater in Chicago. The plaintiffs in
the action ask also an injunction re-
straining the production of the play.
The complaint states that the story
told in the novel, published i'm 1906,
deals with a newspaper man i'm the
role of a reformer and the powerful
influence of commercial interests pitt
ted against him, similar to the story
related i'm 'The Fourth Estate" The
bill charges that Patterson i'm his play
has transposed varied adapted and
disguised scenes, situations and Incl
dents from the novel, and that he has
filched, purloined, plagarized and APP
propriated practically every speaking
character i'm his play from the novel;"

Richmond, Va, Apr. 27.-Embarrass-
ment among the young army officers
at let. Myer promises to be dispelled
though the announcement that Corpor-
al Albert j. Myer, the millionaire
soldier" has passed the examination
for a lieutenancy and will receive his
commission soon.
Corporal Meyer is a grandson Of
Rrigadier General Albert Myer, the
founder of the signal corps. who served
in the civil war, and after whom Fort
Myer is named. His father, Major AL
bert J. Myer, served in Cuba during
the Spanish war as major of the 202nd
New York regiment. Not willing to
take chances of winning nm appoint
ment to west Point, and less willing
to spend four years i'm the military
academy. he enlisted i'm the regular
army in Boston. His efficiency won
him an appointment as corporal.
While Corporal Myer is affectionate-
ly known among his comrades as the
millionaire soldier" he is not in re-
ality millionaire, although he is
wealthy. lie is favorte i'm WASH
ington and is frequently i'm attend
ance upon the very events at which
officers of the fort, sometimes through
duty but more often through inclina-
ton. find themselves.
When his days duty is done Corporal
Myer lays aside his enlisted mans uni
form. dons evening clothes, enters his
automobile as 1t arrives from its city
garage, and armed with a pass de-
sends upon Washington.
Not long ago, at n banquet of n mil
itary society i'm Washington, Major
General j. Franklin Bell. chief of staff,
and Colonel Garrard at that time com
manding at Fort Myer, noticed an at
tractive young man at the table. and
finally IL dawned on them that the
young man was Corporal Myer An
investigation next day disclosed that
while i'm the day time Corporal Myer
was soldier. he frequently became a
man of fashion at night.
Several similar occurrences led the
officers further to investigate the ca
reer of the millionaire soldier" At
one Of the bachelors cotillions in
Washington Corporal Myer was n
guest, to the CONSERVATION, II is said,
OF several young officers OF the fort
who were present.
