provided by two boys who sell papers

The statement calls attention to the
fact that all meats and provisions pre-

This inspection can easily stand COM

URGE COURT OF APPEALS
ATTORNEYS AND OTHERS BE-
FORE SENATE COMMITTEE.
Argument for Bill Establishing
Tribunal for Final Hearing Of
Patent Controversies.

At an extended meeting today in the
committee room of Senator Brown, chair
man of the committee on patents, repre-
sentatives Of the American Bar Associa-
tion, the Chicago Bar Association and
the Washington Bar Association urged
the immediate report and passage of the
bill providing for the establishment of a
patent court of appeals in Washington.
Robert s. Taylor of Fort Wayne, Ind.
Arthur Steuart of Baltimore and Joseph
Edison of Washington were the repre-
sentatives of the American Bar Associa-
tion; G. c. Poole came from Chicago
Walter +. Rogers. S. T. Fisher and w
w. Dodge were present from the Wash
ington Bar Association. Commissioner
of Patents E. B. Moore was also present
and advocated the passage of some
measure that will establish a final court
of appeals in patent cases.
Diversity in Judgments Alleged.
Judge Taylor declared that there is q
lamentable diversity of judgments among
the nine circuit courts of appeal in this
country. Each may have a different rule
on any particular question, and it may
only be decided finally II the Supreme
Court grants writ Of certiorari, which
is seldom, done. The patent business OF
the country has grown wonderfully in
late years, he said, and the disagreement
among the circuit courts of appeal has
made a chaotic condition in the law. Nc
lawyer is ever able to advise his client
definitely as to the law, because of the
nine coordinate courts of equal juris-
diction.
Mr. Poole of Chicago showed the COM
mittee the trouble his firm has had in
just one case where infringement had
taken place in seven circuits. In each
circuit the infringer had to be prosecuted
The infringers started up in business in
the different circuits for the purpose OF
trying out the courts in those circuits
he said. His. client had been put to the
expense of $4,000 in this expensive liti-
cation, he declared, and all but the first
suit could have been obviated had there
been patent court Of appeals.
Explains Provisions Of Bill.
Mr.. Steuart of Baltimore explained to
the committee the provisions of the bill.
which provides for the appointment of
but one additional justice. The other
four are to be designated by the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court Of the
United States from among the circuit
Judges, He stated that fully half of the
law, although the number of cases is but
about one-sixth of the total number filed
in those courts.
j Joseph Edison, S. T. Fisher and w. F.
Rogers of Washington made short talks,
showing to the committee the eagerness
of the bar of the nation for the passage
of the bill. Even on tpe Pacific coast,
declared Mr. Edison, the patent lawyers
want the court established, although it
will compel them to travel thousands OF
miles to try out their cases finally.

Butter belongs to the fish and eggs

He gave it as his opinion that the tax
on oleomargarine was undoubtedly re-
sponsible for the increase in the price
OF butter.
Then Dr. Wiley told Of improvements
instituted by the bureau under his charge
with reference to the shipping of oysters,
by which it was possible to ship shucked
oysters in ordinary cans, surrounded by
ice. from Washington to Denver and
back and keep them in such good shape
as to make it impossible for any one to
tell. when they arrived in Washington
again, that they hadn't been just freshly
shucked The bureau had actually made
this experiment, he said. Moreover under
proper conditions, oysters in the shell
could be shipped or kept for two or three
