number of cases to pass upon in the first instance. Of course, in the end each one goes theoretically over all these cases, or is supposed to.
 MT Hill. But. as a matter of, fact they, do not. Is not that. so? !, As a matter of fact, the opinion of two out of three is now considered to be the opinion of the whole board whereas if this change is made it will hereafter require three out of five to carry the opinion of the board, and consequently will create a great deal of duplication.
 Mr. Mann. Why, no; I can not see how it will create any duplica- ton. I think the fact is that when one examiner prepares his opinion 1t is now submitted to the other two examiners, and it requires the ap proval of two out of the three to put the decision into force; when if five examiners, and it requires the approval of two out of the three to put the decision into force; when if five examiners are provided for it will be submitted to all five; but that is no duplication of the work, because each one has to examine all of these cases in some way, either originally or when an original decision is presented for approval.
 MT. Hill. Is this a unanimous re- port from the committed?
 MT. Mann. Yes. The bill was unanimously reported in the last House and in this House. I think it was more fully considered in the last House than it has been in this, for the reason that as a rule when a matter has been very fully considered by one Huse Or one committee or one Con- gress, 1t does not always receive as much consideration in the next where there has been no objection raised [ myself think this bill is unobiection- able, and ought to pass.
 Point of Objection.
 A little later MT. Hill said:
 Il do not object to the $7,OOO ad- dltlonal for the chief examiners. but the criticism which comes to me and which impresses itself upon me- Mr. Chairman, is that five men who are to do the work which three now do, requiring at least a majority of the board, however it may be constituted, Will Increase and. delay the continu- ance of the work in the future. I be- lleVe it would be a great deal wiser ana, II left to the board itself, that they would vote for tiff their sal aries should be increased from $500

Officer Patrick Quirk Gets De- Cision and Arrests Pugilists

Indications of the local interest in the Willard Moran fight which IS to be held on March 8 and on which hinges the title of worlds champlOn, was shown at 12:15 o'clock this morning in the lunch room at the Main street crossing when free for-all'' resulted from an argument regarding the superior qualities oe the two pugilists. None of the com batants measured up to the cham pionship calibre of Officer Patrick Quirk, however. and he was given the decision when he brought Will liam Gray and Michael Murphy into court this n2 morning. Judge Mesk1ll also gave the officer the decision by imposing a fine of s and costs on each of the accused.
 Charles Miller, night man at the lunch room, stated that at 12:15 o'clock this morning Howard Smith, Gray, Murphy, Robert Hickock and the latters father were partaking of refreshments. Fight talk started and one of the company remarked that Moran would not last five rounds With Willard The aspirant's follower de- nied this and said that Willard was a big stiff, or words to that effect The result was that two of the party agreed to Ego. up the track and fight

it out" Unable to wait, Gray puhch- ed Hickock and Murphy entered the fray and attacked Miller, the restau- rant man. when he tried to make reace. During the melee Murphy put his foot through a window and also showed his hand through it.
 Hickock was an unsatisfactory witness and did not want to tell who hit him. He said he was struck but did not know who it was that did it. Howard Smith told his side of the story which was likewise vague and Murphy said that Smith was the one who suggested that Hickock go up the track. He then said that Mil Ter tried to eject him forcibly and he resisted. Murphy also declared that Smith and Gray were fighting.

REP. HILL HAS
 TILT WITH MANN
On Patent Office Matter-NOteS Of Interest From Washington

Washington Feb. 11.-Representa- tive E. J. Hill of Connecticut is op- posed to a bill that passed the house today providing for reorganization of the patent office here. The feature Shat MT. Hill objected to particularly was the increase of the number of chief examiners from 3 to 5. He said he did not object to increasing g the salaries of the assistant examin- CTS. Mr. Hill outlined his position during a colloquoy he had with Rep -Tesentative Mann of Illinois, the re- publican leader, who spoke in favor of the bill. During Mr. Manns speech MT Hill interrupted to make an obser- vation and the following colloquoy ensued:
 Mann-HiII Controversy.
 MT. Hill. I know very little about the matter, but this objection is pre- scented to me that the increase in the number of examiners from three to i've will make a large duplication of the work. The gentleman just made an explanation as to the way, in which the work is done. I should like to ask this question:: If it required the approval of another examiner, making two our of three to make report effective would it not require three out of five, and consequently is not the criticism a genuine one that it would Eequire great duplication of work, and would really accomplish nothing toward perfecting' or improving the work of the Patent Office?
 Mr.. Mann. No; do not think so; because there will be no more cases for the five to examine than there are for the three to examine. and each one who examines his case in the first instance will be able to give more consideration to it than he is now able to give, because each exam inor individually will have a fewer
