14 TO ENJOIN PAULHAN 'GREETED BYSVMMOXS Wrights'' Laic tier on Pier to Meet French Aviator. Paulhan. the young: and daring French aviator, did not xjnderstand English yesterday, nor did he understand why he not met by at least one member of the Aero Club of America, when the French liner La Bretagne docked, but, instead, greeted by a lawyer with singleness of purpose and a legal document asking him to show cause why he should not be enjoined from making: flights in this country. Everything was rather new and abrupt to him and his wife and the fancy. highpriced spaniel that stepped proudly ashore.

I Boyce Smith was the process server, representing: the law firm of Williamson LOUIS PAULHAN. The French aviator, who arrived yestorday. Bmith, of No. 115 Broadway, acting on behalf of the Wright company. The nf of the Wright brothers' patents 5n the by Paulhan in his flights pf a Farma.n flying machine.

The suit calls for an answer to the complaint before tht first Monday in February. With Paulhan on the steaniti were D. Masson and E. Miscarrol, both French aviators, and E. Ronon.

a mechanician. The party expect to leave the city this morning for Los Angeles, where Paulhan has engaged to fly at an aviation meet. His equipment consists of two Bleriot monoplanes. No, 11, and two Farman bi- I'lanes. One of the Farman machines is to carry three persons, besidfs the aviator, and is equipped with a w-horsepewer Gnome motor, and is to carry enough gasolene for a flight of eight hours.

When the Frenchman who has been amazing Europe by the height of his aeroplane trips learned through an interpreter be did not have la proceed at once to court, be the Hotel at Sth F-reet and Fifth avenue, as a refuge from the chilliness of his American reception and there opened champagne for the benefit of his fellow flyers and a group of reporters. He is twenty-six years old. with a ruddy complexion arid clear brown eyes. He is but strongly knit: cool and extremely roiirTeiius. He sails under, no false colors as to the object of his visit here and his flights abroad.

He said frankly that it was the money be after, and that he loved to fly hig-h for much money. The machine thai would carry him most quickly to the most money was the one he most wanted. He should like to try a Wright machine, he Raid, ar.d a Curtiss machine; perhaps they were better than the ones he had been using. Mkad if he were to receive PMM a month during his American exhibitions, he thruggfcd his shoulders and apparently the Interpreter say: "I only wish it vera true; but it is not much as that. Not at a'l." As to action brought by the Wright company, he Baid: '1 shall remove the small movable wings end other things that may be construed as Infringements of the Wright patents and eteer by the rear rudder only.

I have already experimented along these lines and find I can In an official flight at Chalons Paulfcans took his machine to a height of 1,000 feet, and once remained three hours in the air. His wife has made three flights him. She is also dark eyed, and her appearance bears out the statement of her husband that she knows no fear when flying. Indirect testimony also was advanced that the dog had been passenger more than once whin the earth below "appeared small like a map." Paulhan is one of the numerous recruits to the field of aerial activities who have surprised the world since the Rheims international contest was held last summer. Less than a year ago he was a workman In the Voisin aeroplane factory in Paris, a salary of 515 a week.

Pliny W. Williamson, personal counsel for the Wright brothers, said yesterday that the bill of complaint in the action for infringement of patent was filed in the United States Circuit Court here against Paulhan, in accordance with 'a definite policy of the Wright company to endeavor to uphold f-'f-re and abroad Its rights as it saw them. The failure of any representative of the Aero Club to meet Paulhan at the dock was said to have arisen through a misconception as to his standing abroad. The local club did not know, said a member last night, that Paulhan belonged to the Club of France. But the aviator, not some show of proper pride, showed reporters his certificate of membership in that organization.

And he also showed he had been the recipient of several honors from that body. HEADS CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE. Chicago, Jan. A. Stamford Wnite was deeded president of the Chicago Board of Trade to-day.

It seems that George Boroho will have to admit his defeat in the "fresh air contest," for James J. Scanlon plunged into the ice caked North River and Boroho did not even appear. Both ire policemen attached to the Charles street station. For several days Boroho. a freshman on the force, had been complaining of the hot air in the sleeping quarters of the station, and at 2 a.

before retiring, he would open every window, regardless of the icy blasts blowing over the heads of the sleepers. Scanlon' resented this, and asserted that he could stand more real exposure than Boroho. The first try-out was to sleep on the roof during: one of those near-zero nights. Clad in rubber coats and boots, both lay down to sleep out under the stars, but it was a freeze-out for Boroho, and Scanlon was keeping the inhabitants of Mars awoke by his snoring Boroho had to retreat, below. Scanlon and a strong force got by the German guard at Pier 68 about a.

as the next contest was to be a swim to the Jersey shore through the ice. At the appoint hour, Boroho not appearing, Scanlon took off his uniform and plunged in. After paddling around for a few minutes and saying the water 1 was fine, his friends declared him a winner. Later the big Gorman guard let out the secret that Scanlon was in the "Gulf Stream" off Pier 58, as the Interborough power houst- sends out a tremendous stream of hot water there, which can be felt for quite a distance out.

Mentally unbalanced because of his failure to obtain work and earn money to give his little daughter a proper burial. Georgre Kelly, of No. 333 West 29th street, attempted to kill Fivd Btecotte, head waiter in a chop house, at No. 64 John street, yesterday afternoon, the police say. A man in the dining room saw Kelly draw a revolver.

and, jumping up. struck him over the head with a chair. The blow knocked the man down and the bullet went into the ceiling. For several weeks Kelly has regularly visited the chop house, which is owned by Peter J. Hickey, and applied for a job.

Jjiscotte told him repeatedly that there wore no vacancies, and Kelly came to the conclusion that the head waiter had some nnimosity toward him. The death of his little daughter in Bellevue recently and her burial in the Potter's Field, the police say, unbalanced his mind, and letters In his pocket reveal jd that he intended to avenge himself on Bisootte and then commit suicide. Magistrate Harris, In the Tombs court, sent the man to Bertlevue for examination as to his sanity. GIRL SHOT AT DANCE BETTER. Victim of Fight of East Side Gangs in Lyric Hall Out of Danger.

Grace Foley. of No. 63 Jane street, who was thought to have been mortally shot at a dance in Lyric Hall, in Sixth avenue, between fist and 42d streets, when two East Bide gangs started a sensational gun fight early yesterday morning, was reported as out of danger at the New York Hospital last night. Although the-re were five hundred persons in the hall when the fight began, only twenty-seven remained when the police arrived and no information of value wap obtained from them. Programmes showed that the affair was the twenty-fifth annual dance of the "Fashions," which is supposed to be an organization of employes of Tenderloin resorts.

Among the names on thA programme under "guests present" were those of several Tammany politicians and a notorious gang leader. According to Tillie RoseiJe, who went to tho dance with Grace Foley, the latter at 2 o'clock joined a party of four women and eight men at a table in the wine room, and had hardly taken her seat when five men appeared at the door and opened fire on the party at the table. Two men In the party drew revolvers, but before they could fire the lights were turned out, evidently by a confederate of the attacking gang, and the hall Immediately was in an uproar, with men and women struggling to get to the street. The police cay thai era! persons who had been Injured were spfrlte-l away before their arrival, ami that twenty-five shots In all were tired. C.

Fabyan Co. "The only reason I would retire," Mr. Bliss said at his home. No. 27 Kaat 27th street, "would be because I am over the age limit.

Judge Hazel, of the T'l-iteri States Circuit Court, granted on behalf of the Writrht company a preliminary injunction jipiinst the Herring- CurtJss company and Glenn H. Curtiss restraining them from the manufacture and sale of aeroplane? infringing on patents "for improvements in a flying machine" granted May 22, 1906, to Onille and Wll bur Wright, and subsequently assigned to the Wright company.

"The requirements In patent rases for Issuance of an injunction pendente lite the validity of the patent, general acquiescence by the public and infringement by the defendants-are so reasonably eiear." says Judge Hazel in an opinion discussing exhaustively the technicalities of the case, "that I believe it not improbable that complainant may succeed at final hearing, and therefore a preliminary Injunction should be granted." In his opinion the first in the history of jurisprudence involving the airship Judge Hazel says: "The essential claims of an infringement are an aeroplane, or supporting surface, the lateral portions of which are capable- of adjustment to attain different angles of incidence, and a vertical rudder In the rear of the machine. CLaims further include as elements a horizontal rudder, which is positioned forward of the machine, and means for raising and lowering It so as to present its upper and lower side the pressure of the wind." News of the decision of Judge Hazel, in the United States Circuit Court, at Buffalo, granting the Injunction asked by the Wright brothers against the Herring-Curtiss Company and Glenn H. Curtiss, caused a decided stir in local aeronautic circles yesterday. Coming simultaneously with the filing of a bill of complaint in an action for infringement of patents against Louis Paulhan, the French aviator, on his arrival on the French liner La Bretagne. it added strength to the promise recently made by the Wright brothers to lose no time in trying to protect their interests wherever and whenever jeopardized.

Emerson R. Newell, counsel for the Herring-Curtiss Company, said at his office yesterday: "Except that we shall, of course, appeal from the judge's decision, I have nothing to say." Pliny W. Williamson personal counsel for the Wright brothers, said: "It is what we expected would happen. The facts warrant no other result. The Wright brothers will some day be remembered as the two most self-contained men, under peculiarly trying circumstances, that latter day history records.

They have seen the fruits of their work seized upon by others, who have become rich, and have maintained a silence which, tho better understood, reveals a most wonderful degree of forbearance." The wording of the decision of Judge Hazel left aeronautic students in this city uncertain last night whether Glenn H. Curtiss would be restrained from giving exhibitions as an aviator. Mr. Curtiss is now on his way to California, where he is under engagement to fly within a few days. H.

A. Toulmin, chief counsel for the Wrignt company, said hts brief regarding Curtiss that "he obtained a knowledge of how the Wright machine was built beforehe became an infringer." He wrote to the Wright brothers, the brief continues, for friendly advice and information as to how they constructed their machine, while he (Curtiss) was experimenting for tha Aerial Experiment Association, the president of which was Dr. Alexander Graham Bell. The Wright brothers, say the papers in the case, replied, giving full information, directing attention to Wlbur Wrght's public addresses, and, in particular, to the patent now in suit. Mr.

who, by the way, cannot be was at Kitty Hawk, N. says the brief, in 1902, anl there saw a Wright machine in flight while he was In the employ of Octave Chanute. of Chicago, and while Mr. Chanute was a guest at the testing camp. The papers allege that "it was there that this member of the defendant company first acquired a knowledge of this invention, which he carried away with him." MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
