$500 FOR TRADEMARK.

The idea is springing up in various
localities to adopt a Made in the
|. S. A." mark, not only to
meet the requirements of some for
eign countries in regard to the mark
ing of imported goods, but for the
further purpose of impressing upon
our own people, some of whom buy
foreign products simply because they
are imported" that Americana made
goods are fully the equal of any we
have been getting abroad. In adopt
ing this idea the Detroit Board of
Commerce hopes to inauguratc some
thing of national movement, and
for this purpose it is offering prize
of $500 for the best design for such a
mark. This design, which must con-
form to the regulations contained in
the L. S. Trademark laws, is to in
clude the words Made in Detroit,
u. $. A." but must be national in
it's character and such that it can be
appropriately adopted by any other
city, and the space occupied by the
name of the city must be 50 arranged
that any other city may be easily
substituted.
This prize competition will close
on February 18th and all artists de-
string to enter can obtain copies of
the rules of the contest by addressing

lea Committee, Detroit Board of Com

Inventor Ends All Litigation
Settlement in Morris Iron n
Steel Company Case.

Steel Company CASE.
mitigation surrounding the slits of
E. Cooper Wills, inventor of the Wills
steel converter against officials and stock
holders of the Morris Iron & Steel Com
pany for $3.50, 900, ended yesterday when
Wills voluntarily withdrew the seven
claims against the seven individuals and
settlement was reached in the case
against the Morris Iron and Steel Com
pany. In the signed agreement which
dismissed his suit against the company
Wills admits that his claims against the
seven individuals were without founda-
ton
1.-THE settlement in the case of Wills
against the steel company was reached
by arrangements between President John
Mitchell, Jr., of the company, and T.
Cooper Wills. Nothing was made known
concerning the terms Of the settlement.
Yesterday Wills flied an order in the
! Clerks Office of Frederick county with
d" wing the appeal in the case against
/ Fr.dk W. Cramer for $1,000. This was
the only one of the eight cases that came
to trial in Frederick county and decis-
ion was brought in against Wills. An
appeal was taken Later Wills applied
to the court to have the remaining seven
cases removed to another court, claiming
that fair and impartial trial could not
b. secured in Frederick county. The
cases were removed to Montgomery Co.
Yesterday orders were sent to the Clerk
of the Court of Montgomery county, or
dering the dismissal of the suits, which
ended all litigation.
Last February Wills filed the follow
ing claims: Frederick Cramer. $1,000;
Walter b. Leatherman. $1,000; Charles
MEG. Matthias, 50, 600; j. Frank lin Thorn
as, 81. 600; Charles c. Biser. $4,000; G..
H. Stall y, $50, 7l0 Emory l.. Coblentz,
S22, 90 and the Morris Iron and Steel
Company, $4,000.
"Athough it had been reported that
the claims against the individuals had
been dropped after certain sum of
money had passed, Wills action in these
cases was purely voluntary and without
mo ey consideration. Emory l.. Co.
blentz last night emphatically declared
that no money had passed in the drop
ping of the individual suits. Frederick
