contact with the gas and as a result
may float to the surface in the form
of a froth or scum which can be
separated afterwards by any well
known means The object of intro
ducing the air or other gas into the
mixture is such agitation of the pulp
as will produce the desired froth, but
the claims are not confined to par
ticular device or a particular degree
of agitation
81 may further add that the diff.
culties which the Philadelphia court
experienced as to the limitation OF
the first or oil patent to some partic'
ular degree of agitation were all
swept aside in the Butte case and
shown to be directly contradicted by
the very terms of the patent itself.
AS to the accounting, the plaintiff
is entitled to all of the profits attri-
butable to the infringing acts. The
Miami Copper Co. added flotation at
the tail end of its plant to recover
metal from material formerly thrown
away. All of that recovery is therefore
due 10 flotation, and Minerals Separa-
ton, Ltd, is entitled to all of the pro-
fits of that recovery.
tile Miami Co. has filed in court
sworn reports covering the period
from Oct. 5, 1916, TO the first of Au-
gust and showing that the total value
of the concentrates recovered by flo
tation during that period was S2,765.-
672. They commenced to use flotation
in December, 1913. and thereafter put
in their pneumatic or Callow plant,
and commenced to operate this in Au-
gust, 1914. We roughly estimate
that their total recoveries in flotation
amount to S5,0OO.0OO, and that the
costs Of fiotation were very small In
deed. and the difference between the
actual cost and the value constitutes
the profits due TO infringement to
which Minerals Separation are enti-
tied.

DECISION UPON
FLOTATION CASE
VERY EXPENSIVE
Companies Using Patents or
Notifications Thereof will
Be Forced to Pay Big Sum
to Minerals Separation.

The continued victories of the MIN
erals Separation Co. in the federal
courts of the United States against
the copper and spelter producing min
ing companies which have been using
it's patented process or notifications
thereof without license may cost the
mining companies a very heavy penal
ty in damage claims.
Henry d. Williams, New York, of
counsel for the Separation Co. was
asked concerning various phases of
this all important litigation and he
responds as follows:
"The effort of the Miami Copper
Co. to reach the supreme court having
been abandoned, two proceedings fol
low as mere matters of form and in
evitably. One is a permanent injunc-
ton against the Miami Copper Co re-
straining further infringement of the
three patents in suit. the first patent
for flotatiOn with the use of a small
quantity of oil, the second patent for
flotation with the use of a solution
frothing agent dissolved in the ore
pulp, and the third patent for flota-
ton with the use of phenol or cresOl
in the cold and without acid.
in my opinion this will absolutely
prevent the use of the fiotation pro-
cess in any form, with Callow cells
now installed. or with any other con-
trivances. The comfort which Mr..
Callow has derived from the opinion
of the Philadelphia Court has been
solely based upon what the court said
as 20 the oil patent That court said
as 20 the solution patent that the
claims are not confined to a partic-
ular device or a particular degree of
agitation and that the means for
bringing about the agitation are de
scribed in terms that are wide and in
elusive and then, quoting the specifi-

.CORNEL|A COMPANY
CONTRACTS POWER
FROM CALIFORNIA
Deal Is Put Through Which
May Mean Much to Miners
and to Nearby Farmers in
Southwestern Part of the
State.

The Cornelia Copper Mining COM
pany has contracted with the South
ern Sierras Power company for 1000
XVIII. electricity to be furnished their
mine at Ajo. A line is to be con-
structed from Yuma TO Ajo, and the
connections made with the Califor-
MIA Company's line at Yuma. 1t will
pass up the ella and Antelope val
leys, through Wellton and ella Bend
thence TO Ajo. The contract calls
for the completion of the line within
the next IS months. The Ajo Com
pany proposes by this means to furn-
ish itself power for the operation OF
its vast mining properties at Ajo.
This enterprise means the wonder
full development of an extensive .oun-
try, which now is practically dormant
from lack of means to promote indus
try. Thousands of acres of the best
lands that lie out of doors in the
ella and Antelope valleys will thus
be brought into cultivation by means
Of water that will be lifted through
wells. The power to perform this
work is all that has kept this country
back. Now that the government has
thrown the ella valley out of the Yu
ma project, the people who have in.
vested there with the view they were
some day to have the advantages Of
the project will take new hope. In
addition to the irrigation feature of
the enterprise the mining properties
between Yuma and Ajo will be bene-
fitted to an inestimable degree in
placing cheap electric energy at their
very doors. 1t will also serve as
stimulus to the settlement of the
lands recently thrown open in the
ella valley. And. still in addition to
all these benefits. comes the great ad-
vantage to men all along the line who
are developing ranches.
1t is one of the most important deals
that has been made in that section of
country for many days, and means
the retaining of two or three hun.
bred thousand acres of land which
would lie dormant indefinitely without
cheap power.

son, convicted short time ago of the
abduction Of Baby Keets and sen,
fenced to serve thirty-five years in the
Missouri penitentiary, is now charged
with the murder Of the child. He has
made clean breast of the whole af.
fair in q signed confession to which he
was sworn yesterday, and duplicates a
number of others in the crime.
The abduction Of the Kests child
stirred all the Middle West, and when
the body of the little one was found in
a well feeling against the kidnapers
ran high. Pierson was convicted and
given sentence which was considered
almost equivalent to life Imprisonment.
He has broken down under the strain
and his confession is the result As a
reward for the confession and the aid
he is to give in the conviction of others
IT is expected that his penalty will be
life imprisonment instead Of death.
