Wall Street Values Hold Well With Light Business
VERY SLOW, FIRMER WITH
SMALL NET GAINS IN
THE LIST.

NEW YORK, March 12.-The market
gave indications of another forward
movement Immediately following the
opening, fractional gains being made
throughout the list, but at no time was
there anything approaching activity in
the market. Close observers expressed
the opinion that the manipulators had
acquired some stock at low prices yes
terday afternoon and would give the
market another advance-that the end
of the bull movement was not at hand.
After this early rise there was a slump
that practically brought the market
hack to an even keel. and then just be-
fore the noon hour another slight i'm
provement, nothing worthy of especial
comment-an unsatisfactory market to
traders liking something more than
eighth and quarter fluctuations.
The exception to the list was Erie,

Patent Decision Will
Not Affect Suits Now
Pending Against Trusts

That the decision handed down by

of Boston, the Cash Register Com
panY, and the. coaster brake, and ap-
plies to only one phase of the Key
stone Watch Case Company, was the
positive declaration made at the De-
partment of Justice today.
The trust busting" officials of the
department were not caught mapping.
They were not even surprised. The
decision only affirmed their prophecy.
The decision handed down October II,
circuit court in the case of Heaton
Peninsular Button Fastener Company
versus. the Eureka Specially Com
pRny. is similar to that handed down
by Justice LurtOn yesterday in both
decision and composition.
In the decision OF October -, 1896
eelivered bv Justice Lurton. the court
held:
1T is competent for the owner of a
patent for a machine for fastening but
tons to shoes with metallic fasteners to
sell such a machine subject to a con-
dition that they shall be used only with
fasteners manufactured by the seller,
title to revert on breach of the con-
ditions, even though the fasteners are
not patented and the result of the re-
striction is to give the owners of the
machine patent a monopoly OF their
manufacture and sale; this does not
make the condition void as in restraint
of trade or against public policy.
"A purchase of the machine would be
in effect mere license, and the use OF
1t by him contrary to the condition
would he not only a breach of con-
tract, but a violation of the monopoly
for an injunction suit would lie"
This case, 1t was pointed out, Is iden-
tiCal with that handed down BY Judge
Lurton yesterday, with the single eX'
ception that in one a mimeograph ma
chine is concerned, while in the other
it was button fastening machine.
Assistant to the Attorney General
Fowler, stated that the decision would
not alter any OF the cases now pending
hut declined to give his reasons.

IN SENATE OVER

Measure Framed for District
Citizens Championed by
Progressives.

Things are shaping up in the Senate
for hot fight over the Bristow Presl-
dentiaG primary bill for the District,
which was turned down in the District
Committee of the Senate by the com
blned votes of conservative Democrats
and conservative Republicans.
Progressive Republicans and progress
sive Democrats are going to make a
hard fight for the passage of the bill
1t has gone to the calendar, at the re-
quest of Senator BristoW. and will
come up in due time.
Not only will Senator Bristow make a
fight for it, but he will be Joined b.
Senators Works and Pomerene and 9TH

The struggle will take on large polit-

will represent the clash between the
reactionary elements in both parties in
the pending Presidential contests, who
are fighting primaries, and the progress
sive elements. who are for primaries.
The friends of Colonel Roosevelt in

PATENT DECISION
WILL LEAD TO NEW
Law, SENATORS SAY
Clapp and Kenyon Among
Those to Predict Imme-
diate Legislation.

That the decision of the Supreme
Court in the patent case of Sidney
VS. A. b. Dick Company, the effect
of which is to give holders of pat
ents power over restrictive licenses
issued with each article sold and
which will go far to make possible
the building up of monopolies on the
basise of patent rights Is likely to
legislation by Congress was the Opin-
ion expressed about the Capitol to-
day.
In his vigorous dissent, Chief Jus
tice White has undoubtedly given i'm
petus to the movement for legisla-
tion.
Already, the subject of striking at
monopolies based on patents is under
consideration by the Interstate Com
merce Committee of the Senate. Senator
Kenyon, former assistant to the Attor-
Eey General, has a bill pending which
would enable the Government to can
Gel patents used as the foundation of
monopolies.
The committee is considering the
whole trust questionnow, including the
Kenyon bill. As t the effect of the de-
Cision on the deliberations of the COM
mittee, Senator C!app, chairman, today
said:
The decision, coming at this time
Will be of peculiar interest to the COM
mittee."
Senator Clapp would not assume to
speak for the committee and predict
what 1t would do
At the same time there Is known to be
---Jstrong sentiment in the committee
that the legislation is needed to meet
the situation suddenly thrust upon the
country.
Senator Culberson of Texas, one OF
the Democratic leaders. said he had no
doubt there would be serious considera-
tton of the need for legislation arising
from the decision
It is pointed ut in Senate circles that
already the Government has been great
ly embarrassed in trust prosecutions by
the use of patents to build up monop-
0lles and that this embarrassment will
undoubtedly now bo added to-

Supreme Court Will
Have Opportunity to
Review Patent Case

The Supreme Court will be given an
opportunity to again pass on its own
decision in the patent case of Dick &
Co., against Henry, which was decided
yesterday in an opinion delivered by
Justice Lurton, before Congress under
takes the consideration of legislation to
ward off the evils which Chief Justice
White, in his dissenting opinion, as
serted would follow in the wake of the
decision.
This Is the opinion of Senator Brown,
chairman of the Senate Committee on
Patents, with whom Commissioner of
Patents K. b. Moore proposes to confer
today regarding legislation that will
limit the effect of the courts decision
that includes price-fixing in the rights
acquired by a patentee.
Nothing will be done toward drafting
bill until after we ha>. &ad a chance
to see the whole opinion and read 1t
carefully.
Il understand that an immediate ap-
plication will be made for a rehearing.
A minority of the entire court was able
in this case to present majority opin-
ion. 1t is felt that this may have some
influence on the court when the appli-
cation for rchearing Is filed. l think
nothing will be done with legislation
until after the court has said whether

yesterday"
