Suit Against the Rankin Process
 Company.

F. A. Wright has filed suit Tn the Superior Court of this county against the Rankin Process Company and H. D. Rankin, for tbe recovery of the sum of over l34 .000$, alleged to have been fraudulently obtained from plaintiff and for services rendered and damages Wright in his complaint alleges that in tho year 1911 he met Rankin in Lake county, Colorado, and that de- fsndant Rankin informed him that he had a nitrogen process for the recov. cry of metals from their ores. Wright agreed to finance the process and later a corporation was formed. Under the terms of the agreement Wright was to furnish 5O,OOOS and was to have inter- est ln the process and company. Af- ter the money had been delivered Rankin failed to come through with the patents and later it was discovered that the process was owned by one Thatcher, who has a company operat- Ing the process.
 It will be remembered that Rankin and Wright tried out the process on the Elkhart mine at Chloride, or at least experinented with the ores. and that at the time the Rankin process was muchly touted by the press of Colorado. It would now appear that while Rankin did some experimenting along the lines of . nitrogen process another man had covered the process with U. $. patent and that therefore Rankin and his associates are barred from setting up any rights, and that Rankin knew at the time that Thatch- cess. Wright is the owner of the Elk

Minerals Separation, Limited,
 Oen,ed Basis Process.

In the Circuit Court of the United States, Justices Gilbert, Ross and Die. trich handed down an opinion in the matter Of James M. Hyde vs. Minerals Separation, limiIed, and Minerals Separation American Syndicate, limit ed, covering an alleged infringement of the Notation process. James M. Hyde and tho Butte & Superior com pany used the process in tho recovery of copper from the ores of the Butte mines without entering into a contract with the Minerals Separation con- pany. and the company entered suit. The original hearing of the cause was lost sight of in the appeal that was taken to the Circuit Court by Mir. Hyde and tho Butte & Boston com. pany. The Circuit Court reviewed the various processes at length and rendered it's decision against the con- tention of the Separation company, holding that they had TO basic process patent right, as it's method was not different from that of the Fromept. Kirby and other similar processes, and that the "agitatlon froth" of the Minerals Separation method was not unlike that of the areated oily magma" of the others. The question of producing froth in one oil that is unlike the froth in the other oil is well threshed out by the court. In the one case the counsel for the ap- pellees say that the other fellows pro- cess produces ''froth which is not our froth" and that their froth is a pure metal froth, while the froth of the other patents is an oil froth. The appellses hold that their froth is con- posed of air bubbles carrying it's load of metal with only an inappreclable quantity of oil connected therewith.
 Until the question was put squarely before the court it was the general belief that the life of the Minerals Separation process rested in the in troduction of acid into the mass, which set up oxidation, the liberation of the gases on the particles of metal carry ing it to the surface to bs deposited in the oily froth generated by the rapid agitation of the whole mass. But this would appear to be not the case, as this would&have given the appellees some of basic process for patent, and would not matter to what extent the frothy oil might bear the scum of m etal.
 Away back in the days when chem istry was young it was well known that oily masses had an affinity for bright metals and these old fellows in expert. menting with the metals and mineral oils did some remarkable stunts, but the investigations were not carried to the same conclusion that they have been in recent years.
 From the decision of the court. which we believe will not be disturb ed by the higher courts, it would ap- pear that any one can put in their own oil process without asking the consent of any of the process fellows.

hart mine, at Chloride, which would have been greatly benefited had the process been available to that prop srty. The mine has been opened to the 600 level and has large bodies of lead and zinc ores, but owing to the presence of iron it is impossible to mako a marketable zinc without too much expense. If process was had that would do the work cheaply the mine ought to be winner.
