Moore was not a government official
Mr.. Ewing took the oath of Office soon
after the patent office opened in the
morning. and the presentation of the
watch did not take place until fully
eight hours later it was declared, when
Mr. Moore was a private citizen.
Commissioner Ewing this morning
said that in his opinion there was alb
solutely no violation of the law by the
employees of the bureau. He declared
that the employees need not fear their
positions. for he is not going to take
any steps looking toward dismissals on
account of the collection of the fund
AS the enforcement of the law is LETT
with the officials Of the bureau in which
the acts were committed, the incident
seems to be closed.
Former Commissioner Moore, after an
extended vacation, which may take him
on an ocean trip, will take UP the
practice of patent law in New York
and Washington as a partner Of w. H.
G. Clarke.
