FIRST CIVIL
SUIT DECIDED
No Cause of Action Is the
Verdict.
BOTTLE MACHINE
Suit of Millville Bottle Works
Against Estate of the Late
G. w. Shoemaker.

The first case moved for trial yes
terday before Judge Carrow was the
Millville Bottle Works against Isaac
L. Shoemaker, ct. al, executors of the
last will and testament of c. w. Shoe
maker, decd. Hon. Louis H. Miller
for plaintiff and Frank R. Bacon and
ex-Judge Royal P. Tuller, for the de-
PENDANTS. A jury was empanelled.
| This is an action brought to recov-
er thousand dollars $1,000, bal
ance claimed on an automatic bottle
blowing machine.
The history of the claim, as given
by Mr.. Miller, is that Lewis Steeiman
had invented a bottle blowing ma
chine, which had been assigned to the
Millville Bottle Works. Mr.. G. w.
Shoemaker got possession of the pat
ent from Mr.. Steelman and the Bottle
Works, for the price of $500. $500
OF this amount was paid, and this suit
is to recover the claimed balance of
$1,000.
The defence denies the claim, and
declares that the $500 paid ysttled the
obligation OF the Bottle Works against
Shoemaker.
A contract was produced on the
lpart of the plaintiff, between Mr..
Steelman and Mr.. Shoemaker, and of
fered in evidence. By this agreement
1t was sought to be shown that Shoe
maker procured the unprotected ma
chine from the shop of the .Millville
Bottle Works.
The admission of this agreement was
objected to by Judge Tuller, but il
was admitted.
Walter Scott Wheaton, President OF
the Bottle Works, detailed the trans
faction between Shoemaker, Steelman
and the Bottle Works by which Shoe
maker paid $500, and became owner
of the machine under the obligation
to pay $1,000 at the expiration of three
years.
James Mitchell of the Bottle Works
gave testimony and was followed by
Lewis Steelman, the inventor of the
bottle blowing machine, and he de-
tailed the circumstances of his, Steel
mans selling the machine by agree
ment, the terms being that Mr.. Shoe
maker was to buy the machine for
$500. He said he, Mr.. Wheaton and
Mr.. shoemaker met in the factory of
the Bottle Works. Mr.. Steelman said
Il was out of the Bottle Works, and
Shoemaker took over my obligations
to the Bottle Works." He said he, Mr..
Shoemaker, told Mr.. Wheaton that he
would pay $500 for the machine.
Witness said his interest was 4S
per cent. in the machine. Shoemaker
was to pay the Millville Bottle Works
$500 for its interest in the machine.
The plaintiff rested.
The defendants put in no evidence,
relying on their contention that there
was owing nothing to the Millville
Bottle Works and that their indebted
less to the works was paid by the
$500 payment.
| The arguments closed the case.
| The jury returned a verdict last
night about 6 o'clock, of no cause for
action.
