Federal Court Declares Product
of His Firm Is an infringement
on Wright Machine.
DIFFER ONLY IN FORM
Principle Like That Of the Day
ton Inventors, Declares Judge
Hazel-Defendants Per-
manently Restrained.
LRy Telexrnph to The Tribune. J

Buffalo. Feb. 27.-Dinerent in form but
alike In principle. is the opinion reached
by Judge John X. Hazel. Of the federal
court here "a To the Curtiss aeroplane
which the Wright company alleges TO be
an infringement on its own flying ma
chine The court granted a permanent
injunction restraining the defendants
from the manufacture and sale Of the al
legged infringing machine. The decision
is. however qualified to the extent that
stay is granted pending further appeal
providing that appeal he conducted ex-
peditousy. The defendants must pay the
costs of the suit.
Testimony of experts was taken and ar
Guments were heard by Judge Hazel last
November. \ long opinion accompanies
his decision lie reviews the history ~
aviation and the principles a. applied by
aViators and would-be avators and their
patents from M down 10 the Wright
patents applied for in 1903 aud granted in
May lr5. There are eighteen claims in
the Wright patent. four Of which are
alleged TO have been infrnged by the
defendants. the Herring Curtiss Company
and Glenn n. Curtss. The chief in
frinecment. AS alleged. was in the at
tachments for maintaining the equilib-
rum Of the machines.
The judge says the testimony OF Curtiss
himself that the alerons of his machine
are intended to preserve lateral balance
without the use Of any other element or
part supports the AL sed infringement.
Of claim No. g. KS ~ The three oth,:

The defendants are believed to have
appropriated the substance Of claim and
10 have infrlnged claim Il. inasmuch a..
in addition 10 the essential elements II
the Wright patent and the object with
which such elements are used. they also
employ in their seroplane a horizontal

surfaces to the resistance of the atmos-
phere Claim 10 contains the essential
elements and specifies the location OF "A
vertical rudder at the rear OF the ma
chine and a horizontal ruddcr I the front
thereof
To- conclusion the opinion SAYS.
The defendants have embodied IN their
acroplan. the various clements OF the
claims in suit. While it j. true. as
pointed out herein. that the defendants
nave constructed their machine some
