Tbo freight train arrived at Fort Scott at

Two suspicious looking characters ot the
description of tha roobora , as given In the

when ono of tbo men drew hU revolver
and ilrctl. Tha 'bullet pierced the
pollcoinan's head anil ho dropped dead. It
so happened that by this tlmo the frcicut
train was pullingoutand the robbcra boarded
an empty box car und looked themselves in.
Shorlly afterwards the passenger train from
Tjamar arrtvrd and on it was Detective dies-
J jr of the Missouri P.iclllu who was in pur
suit of the bandits. Ho , accompanied by
United States Marshal Alapos and City Mar
shal Abbott of I't. Scott , boarded the iiasscn-
'Rcr train and pulled out Immediately in pur-
stiltof tliofroipht. AtMtamistation ttio freight

and shots were continuously e\changua
through tlio ends of cars all the way to
JRloasanton , a distance of live miles.
A dispatch lint boon sent to Pleasanton
nsklng that a passu moot the train , and when
tbo freight pulled In the robbers' car was

to surrender. Tlioy answered with shots
from their revolvers and the posse returned

To the Inventor the nil Important question
presents Itself , "How ' win I socuron p.itonU1'
nnd to this Tnr II'BB IJureau offers the fol
lowing oxpla atlon :
Inventors as"a class nro not familiar with
the laws under which letter ? pTitont nro
granted , the forms and practice in the patent
ofllco at Washington nnd the technical
methods nf casting specifications nnd claims
to properly protect tbolr Inventions against
In f ringers , yet the vnluo of the patent and
oven its validity dupond largely upon the
careful nnd export preparation of tlio caso.
Specifications must bo drawn to fully dis
close Iho Invention , to distinguish b otwco
what Is now nnd what Is old , and claims ,
upon which the vnluo nnd validity of the
patent depend , must bo cast to fully cover
the Invention yet not to encroach upon pnt-
cnti already granted. Failure in either of
these respects often rondcri the patent value
less or void , The employment of counsel
skilled In patent law is therefore usually n
prerequisite to the proper prosecution of a
case and 'a grant of n valuable patent.
Many Inventors suffer the loss of benefits
that should bo dorlvod from valuable Inven
tions owing to Insuflloiont protection by pat-
ots procured through incompetent or care
less agents , etc.
l > 'orVliut CranM'il ,
Under the laws of the United States let

A patent is granted for seventeen years ,
during which tlmo the owner has solo and
exclusive right to make , use and soil the
patented invention.
lloiv to I'rocrod.
For economic reasons before malting ap
plication to the patent ofllco for a patent ,
the novoltv mjd patentability of the Inven
tion should bo ascertained , because , If the
invention Is not now or not patontnblo an
unnecessary expense is incurred by filing an
application on whica a patent can never bo
granted , etc.
Tbo lirst thing to bo done Is to find out
whether or not the invention is now nnd
patcntablo.
For advice on the point it is necessary to
send to the bureau a roucli or complete
sketch or n photograph of tbo invention , to-
gelhur wilh a brief description thereof ,
sotting- forth the object ot the improve
ments , the arrangement of the parts and
the advantages attained. U'hilo n modal Is
very seldom necessary , yet it Is often of
great assistance. The latter can bo made of
any cheap material , ar.d will be returned if n
request is made to thateffect. .
Upon receipt of the data mentioned suffic
ient to enable tlio invention to bo understood
our counsel will at once examine thereinto ,
and will advise without charge what is the
host course to pursue and will express an
opinion , from their knowledge of the arts
mid patents already gcantcd , as to the patent
ability of the invention.
Iu this connection it is recommended that
the best and safest course is to havu a
special search made iu the patent olllco to
ascertain whether or not tbo invention has
been herotuforo patented , , The ciuvjantago of
'
such a search 13 that , if vno'anticip'atmir patent
is discovered the application can be tiled with
u greater decree of certainly , whereas If the
invention is lound to bo old all further ex
pense b avoided. The cost of a search of
this nature is $5 , and with the report of the
result thereof the inventor will bo furnished
with copies of such patents , if any , as embrace -
brace his ideas. It is much bolter to bavo
this search made in the outset before incur
ring an } ' expensu whatever regarding the ap
plication for patent.
If it is found that ho invon lion Is now and
pjtentablo tbo client is advised to proceed
with the filing of t\n application for patent ,
and will then bo requested to remit $13
to cover the lirst government fee and
$ .5 in payment of cost of drawing , when ono
is necessary. As soon as uosiiblo after the
receipt of this remittance tbo specification of
the invention will bo carefully prepared
and forwarded to the inventor , together with
forms for application for patent ready for
execution. Upon return of the latter the case
will bo promptly Hied ut the patent olllco and
notice will bo sent when action is had there
on. und also of the nature uf such action.
The examining corps of the patent ofllco is
divided into thirty-two divisions , among
which the applications nro divided according
to the onlciui classlficatibn. The condition of
the work in thu various divisions varies train
ono to live mouths in arrears.

Consistent with the spirit with which this

conduct any branch of the business on u
money making basis , but it is proposed to do
the work as near tbo actual cost as will pro

are retained at heavy oxpunsa to the bureau ,
yet it is tbo wish to charge in ordinary cases
only the minimum fee of Jil. However , in
cases requiring extra care , limp nnd labor
the fee will bo proportionately Increased , but
clients will always bo advised in advance
should such increase of fee bo found neces
sary. In dlrcctinir inquiries please mention

A patent for a design is granted to any
person who Im invented or procured any
new und arlglual design for the prinliug of
woolen , silk , cotton or oiher fabricj ; any
new and original impression , ornament , pattern -
torn , print or picture to bo printed , painted ,
cast or otherwise placed on or worked into
nny article of manufacture ; or any new ,
useful and original shape or con 11 su ration of
any article of manufacture , tbo same not
having boon known or used by others before
hU invention or production thereof , or pat-
onlod or described in any printed publica
tion. Patents for designs are granted for
the term of three and one-half yours , the
government fee being SIO ; or for seven years ,
tbo fee being S15 ; or for fourteen years , the
fee being $10. The charge of the buroyu in
such cases Is usually $ i"i.

A patent can bo reissued whenever tbo
same Is Inoperative or invalid by reason of a
defective or insufficient specification , or by
reason of the pa tea too' a claiming moro Hum
he had a right to claim as new , providing tbo
error has arisen by accident , mistake or in-
advorttmco , aim without fraudulent Intent.
Thu government foe for u reissue is $ .10 , The
cost of drawing Is $ . " > , and the bureau charge
is usually )5 ) , ( .treat care must bo oxcrcisod
In reissuing a patent , because very often
what llltlo validity them may bo in a defec
tive patent is entirely lost by procuring a ro-
ssuo which is totally Invalid.
Iti'Jrcli'd CiiHru ,
There are In tbo patent olllco a great many
rases which stand rejected , but which should
bo allowed. This condition of tha case maybe
bo duo either to iiicompetency 0.1 tbo part of
the attorney employed or his inability , be
cause of residence elsewhere than in Wash
ington , to make the examiner see the Inven
tion in Its true light ; und then , again , as
often occurs , cases are rejected on Improper
or insufficient grounds. When so requested
wo will bavo our counsel examine Into any
such cast * free of charge and advise as to Iho
proa poets for success by. fur'hcc prosecution.
The client will also bo then Informed of the
probabla cost of complotion.
By moans of a caveat nu Inventor secures

An Interference Is a judicial proceeding In

sioner of patents lo cuablo him to determine -
tormino the question nf priority of
invention botwcon rival claimants. The
bureau , recognizing the fact that extraor
dinary care and skill are requisite on tha
part of an attorney In charge of a case In In
terference , has nt tls command counsel prepared -
pared to conduct a cuso in Interference from
the very Inception down to n final determina
tion of the merits of the cause. Testimony
will also bo taken under our direction in any
part of the United Stales. While no specific
sum can bo sot down as applicable to all In

The question whether or not ono patent In

lltigalion. The questions involved are "many ,
and of the most Intricate nature. It is al
ways u matter of such great importance that
no ono should ever claim that another is In

tlvo promise that ho long-voxod lilies in th

for the consideration of tUis ousinoss , and

The organi/atlon of this court givns Tin :

usefulness. It will take claims under this
law nnd prosecute them for persons who do
not know whom to engage for the service.
The business entrusted to the bureau in
Washington is being prosecuted witu energy.
The Indian depredations patent , land
mining anil other claims before the courts
mid departments nro being pushed as rapidly
as possible , with no delays on accunt or the
largo amount of business which has been sent

esteem and confidence in which TIIK ! : : is

wlo n demonstration , if ono was requiredo

The revelations in regard to the Loomls

go even further In the same direction. When
a man sought for bv tbo police for neurly u

up us a claim agent , flood the western coun

for several million dolJar'Tworth of claims ,
It appears that there iJ lltelb prelection for

who nra not oblo to go"tb' ' Washington und

The approval with which , TIIK BKK enter

Tun B u Bri'UEu o/1 fe.UMS , in dealing
with the claims urlsmgVyjndor the Jndjun
'
depredations net , has been successful' in pro
tecting a largo nuint. r of subscribers and
others from oxtortiua > md loss. From coin-
plaluls that have comu to it , hotvovor , It ap
pears that many of tlio claimants do not un
derataud their position under the act. At a
tlmo when there appeared to bo lltllo chunco
that congress \yould take up the clnluu or
tnaka any appropriation 19 pay them , they
signed con ( racts wUlit ho Washington agents ,
promising from ono-uuarti-r to one-half the
amount to the agent in case tbo money should
bo collected. In view of this ontortion'cou. '
groas inserted u provision In the act annul.
ing all contracts and limiting the agent's
commission to 16 oriJO per cont.
The claimants all probably understand that
ho agQiil's commission has been limited by
tha law , but many ol tbom , according lotholr
Own Htatotpoins , dn i > ol understand that they
are free to do as the. ileasa about employing
the agent they hud Vi * chosen. TU.iy con
Idorjthal they are si. . > ound to employ the
agent with whom they signed the oxer bltna
contracts whether they are satufloti with
1m or not.
hit was the Intention of congress to protect
them nt nil points nnd they were loft on Iho
passngoottho act free to do ns thov uloasod
nnd omplov whom they pleased. Section 0 of
the act stated ! "That all sales , transfers or
aisignrjonts of any such claims heretofore or
hereafter made , except such ns have occurred
In the duo administration of decedents' es
tntcs and nil contracts heretofore made for
fees and allowances to claimants' attorneys
are hereby declared void.
There could bo no mistake about the mann
ing of this. All claimants had to make naw
contracts with agents after the passage of
the act , and they wore nt liberty to omplov
nny ono they pleased , If ihoy were pleased
wllk thozonl nnd nets of Ihoir firn ajjotit
lhav might make their now contract with

cheese nny olhcr ngont that they pleased.
These who have not signed now contracts
since the passage of Iho not mav profit by
this lo secure much belter terms than they
could otherwise got from the agents. The
fact that Tin : Bii : : Unictu Is doing the work
for the bare ovnonso Involved has had n good
effect In moderating the charges of all agents
to these who know how to protect thorn *
selves. For these who distrust tholr ability
to cope with the claim agents on iheir own

In Russia. Tins explanation vns offered lo

Sir H. 1) . Morior some tlmo ago secured n
leave of absence , llo was In London tun !
left as vigorous ns over. The transference
when arranged wns not associated with
reasons of health. On Inquiring into the
gcntiino catiso ot Lord Salisbury's action ,
points were cllclt.nl which indicate that the
retention of Sir Ii. U. Morior at
St. Petersburg Is duo to the fact thai
the government Is co-operating with the
Gorman and Italian governments In trying to
pursuado the c/ar to abandon the French
alliance aud join the Huronoan compact ,
leaving the French isolated. Sir H. 1) .
Morlcr , who isnpnrsonngrata at the Russian
court , being much liked by the c/ar , Is using
his Intliicnca to arrangeaeonfcrrnco between
the emperors of Russia and tiormany , nt
which it is hoped tha old bnrmony of re
lations may bu ro-c.stablllicd. The Intricacy
of the quostlon ; ; requiring solution before a
permanent agreement can bo obtained must
involve prolonged negotiations.
Wants Thrni All In Hi ; Tlicrr.
Lord Salisbury today prepared a circular
addressed to the conservative peers , reqiicsl-
ing Ihoir presence in full force on the reopening
opening of parliament on February U. This
circular will bo issued on Monday. Mr.
Gladstone's circular is also expected to bo is

The prince of Wales rolurnod to Windsor
castle Ibis evening lo attoud tbo
private service In St. Oeorgo's chapel ,
nt which all of the members of
his family and those of tlio dukes of
Fife nnd Tcck were present. After the
service all proceeded to the memorial chapel.
It was tbo linal faintly gathering around the
colllu of the duke of Clarence. The duke and
duchess of Tcck and their sons and daughter ,
Princess Marv , immediately afterwards left
for Richmond by the night train. The
princess of Wales and family will return to
Sandrlngham hall tomorrow.
Did Not Slimv I'l-iipiT Iti'sjioi't ,
The neglect of Iho German kmscr to ob
serve the respect duo to the duke of Clarence
is resented in the court circles bore. The
emperor went on n shooting oxcutsion to
BuchsbiifK on thoovo of the duke's ' death ,
although ho hud been apiiraiscd that his con
dition was desperalo. Kvon after receiving
Iho telegram announcing the duke's death ,
ho continued to sport , and had another
day's shooting , returning to Berlin on Fri
day evening. And instead of immediately
lightening to express his condolence the em
peror did not call on the British ambassador
uulll Sunday afternoon , Finally Iho near
ness of relationship justified the court hero
in oxpectinc lhat tlio emperor would order
mourning for tbreo weeks , Instead of for
onlv ten days. The ox-empress Is
believed to have written to a per
sonage in the English court that
she had been pained by her son's want
of consideration , and that she had also bad
cause to complain , as the emperor did not
call upon her as custom nnd duty dictated
uutil iho third day after the dukib of Clar-
onco's ' death. The best interpretation put on
tbo behavior of the emperor is lhat he bad n
tit of eccentric humor , such as now and then
frequently occurs , and that ho allowed his
ill will toward the prince ofVnlos to dis
play itself.
Researches for precedents enabling Prince
George to marry Princess Mary have dis !
closed the fact that it's a rule that in the
event of the death of her betrothed a royal
princess must wall live year.i before becom
ing again betrothed.
The result of tomorrow's polling in the
Hosscmlalo division is awaited with strained
anxietyNo bye election was over before
fought with such vigor on each side.
