The flre waa like the one at tbe Roes building further up the street, in that it was a difficult one to manage. The smoke was so dense as to repeatedly drive tbe firemen out Into tbe ulr. Craig's tailoring establishment and overall factory occupies the upper floors above Renberger's place, and It wan first thought that the flre had reached that part of the structure.

W. Smith, the Pan Hacd'e baggage master, wai attached some time ago forconteoppt of court In that Iw to furnish $25 toward prosecution of bis wife's suit for a divorce. Another attachment has been issued for Smith, as it Is found that be failed to comply with the order of the court Tbe correspondent of tbe Electrical Review writer his paper from Wish. lagtoQ as follows: Judge Carpenter's decision in the Ber increase has caused much excite meat and indignation among the Washington patent attorneys. It practically declares that If any attorney permits the patent office lo de.ay action, for any reason, upon their client's application tbe patent will be void.

OQ tbeother band the patent oflice examiners do uoltake kindly to tho Idea tnat they are to be subject to the dictation of tbe attorneys. They know ibe law and the rules of tbe office and will continue to obey them The friends of Mitchell, Simonds Butlerwonh and ottier commissioners, who were in cffica while tbe Berliner aopilcation was pending, are quiir Indignant that euch a man as Carpenter should officially stigmatize them as pirtles to a fraud practlc. upon tht public. The solid sense of the men best qualified 10 judge is thav the decision will nuver eland. Some years Justice Clifford of the United States supreme court prepared an exhaustive opinion on tbe main question involved In tbo Berliner case and decided that an Inventor Is not responsible for de lays in ihe office.

So far as the other point ii concerned, the opinion la expressed by uninterested, lawyers that if anybody except Barliner bad the second patent or if anybody except tbe Boll Tule phono company hud owned it. the question would never buve been raised. Tbe decision plainly shows that Judge Carpen'er did not confine himself to tbo adjudication of 'hr ripbls of an individual who. claimed protection from tbe government, fur Cls invention, nut that ha undertook to use tho government suit aeniusi B-irllrir." a club with which to smash tho whole Bull Te epbone con aero It Is ooe of tbe pecullariiiB- of the people to abusu an iuventor for all ttuur grievances, real or imaginary, against tbe corporation which happens to uao bis invention. On ono point, there seems to be a good.deul of misapprehension.

Tho Berliner patent has not been excelled, and it will not be cancelled, at leatt, until the Court of Appeals reviews the case Meanwhile tho Boll Cotupacy holds tbe patent and has a light to operate under it. lufrlngers thould tike tbe decision simply as legal advice for what it is worth, and they will do well to consult their own lawyers before making any radical move. The announcement of Carpenter's decision was balled with dtlight by man? persons, by whom It was re garctcd not only as tbe death of Berliner's patent, but as the destruction of the -'great monopoly." Of these persons there are three classts: One is made up of exchange subscribers dUsstlsSed with their treatment, in too for reasons. Another Includes persons who might, have made a. fortune by Investing ia Bell Telephone stock, but who let the opportunity slip.

The third class large one and embraces those who are still ambitious to make a fortune in the telephone business. Tbe Review's Chicago correspondent, Mr. Kctlyn, expresses their feeling with beautiful pcttic patl.os ID saying tbo decision "removes tbo undeliued of monopolizing oppres slod, and capital will not berit.ite to enter this lucrative field, from whence a waUiog future lonb its welcoming arms." Tbe arms most conspicuously stretched out just, at this lime are those of telephone schemers reaching after the capital of gullible spectators. Tbe promoters of tbe numerous schemes deci.ire In oce breath that telephones are public property and in tbo nest that they ho patents wbicb carry valuable rights Tak'ng-the community by and large, comparatively few persons care vrhluh way the ntatter goes. Tele phonic communication is a necessity; nobody wants two ixchanf es io ooe city, and ihe success of business mustdepencJ, not upon paiem rights, bjl upon tfScient and useful service and Tftir dealing.
