SNOWDEN AT THE COKE OVENS. Secretary Tracy Somewhat Indis- posed in Boston. RIOTERS TO BE HANGED. THE MARYLAND REPUBLICANS. Prepositions Looking to Harmony in To- day’s Convention. Bartmtone, April §.—Much interest is taken by members of all parties in the republican state convention, which met foday in Raine’s Hall. Corridors and stairways and neighbor- ing sidewalks are filled with people. Every Tural delegate is apparently on hand, as are all city contesting delegations and their abettors, A proposition for harmony is that the city dele~ gates shall be exciuded trom voting on the or- ganization and that the counties eball organize the Sopp le may a itis also proj , in the interest of peace and good will, to give to the Johnson and Hen- derson wings of the par pectively all wards which each carried indisputably at the recent primary election, reserving to the con- vention the disposition of contested ward dele- gations. ‘The pi of the convention is to adopt a constitution for the government of the party in Maryland so that an end may be put to the un- seomly quarrels of state, county and city com- mittees—and there has been pienty of them of late. Admission to the hall is by ticket. Harry M. Clabaugh of Westminster was chosen chairman. He is regarded as a Johnson man. He was a member of the commission that framed the constitution for the government of the party which the present convention was called to consider.and if possible adopt. Mr. Jobnson is postmaster at Baltimore. a SECRETARY TRACY INDISPOSED. He May Be Unable to Make His Address This Evening. Bosrox, Mass., April 8.—Gen. B. F. Tracy, Secretary of the Navy, arrived in this city early this morning. His visit is to attend the banquet of the Massachusetts Republican Club this even.ng. The Secretary is somewhat indis- posed and expressed a doubt of his ability to speak this evening. He will remain indoors today and endeavor to get in proper condition. He is suffering from ® bronchial trouble, which interferes with easy speech. He is expected to remain in town tomorrow, when, if his health will per- mit, he will visit the navy yard and dine with Gov. Russell, and in the evening attend a re- view of the naval battalion and the local com- panies of the first regiment. THE STRIKE A FAILURE. Morocco Workers at Lynn Give Up After @ Long Fight. Lrxx, Mass., April 8.—The morocco workers have abandoned their strike, which began last August and affected 15,000 men at one time. The strike is a total failure and the men sur- render unconditionally and will veek work where they can, except at Moultos’ factory, where the strike will be continued. This ractically a deatk blow to the Knights of Eater im’Lynn. Few of the men will be re- places have been taken by ————— RIOT QUELLED BY TROOPS. Polish Workmen in Bavaria Attacked by = Numbez of the Unemplozed. Mosice, April 8.—A number of unemployed Saxons and Bavarians today attacked a gang of workmen, composed of Poles, who were en- gaged in the work of laying a cable at Hof, Bavaria. A fierce fight followed, during the Progress of which twenty-fir» men, some on one side and som? on the other, were more or lese seriously wounded. Troops were event- ually sent to the scene of the disturbance and managed to quell the disorders. gata ocnened INSPECTING THE SCENE. Gen. Snowden Visits the Works in the Coke Region. ‘Mount Preasaxt, Pa, April 8.—Considera- ble surprise was occasioned this morning by the arrival of Division Commander Gen. Snowden and his staff. In company with Gens. McClel- land and Wiley Gen. Snowden visited the vari- ous works and personally looked over the field. Upon his report will depend the withdrawal of the troops. Notices of ejectment were placed in the con- stables’ hands today. The ten days’ notice to quit will be served tomorrow on the strikers who are occupying the company houses. Every one who will not wor will be forced seek a residence elsewhere. There is no doubt that the operators are preparing to import men and are anxious to get possession of their houses. The operators ure anxious to have the militia remain until after the evictions, and are trying to impress upon General Snowden the absolute necessity of the guards at that time. ‘Thirty more men applied and were given work st Morewood toduy, making 125 now drawing coke. —-_ MICHAEL QUINN’S MUKDERERS. ‘They Are Refused a New Trial and Will Be Hanged.

Mr. Blaine till declines to make the correspondence pub- —_—-— THE FIRST CONVICTION, The Police Conrt Jury Completed and the August Demonet and Frank D, Evans were called and accepted as jurors in the Police Court today and the panel was completed. Mr. Evans had an excuse, which was that he had a great deal of business, but as the court also had & great deal of business he was not excused. Twelve men then stood with their right hands on a Bible and Clerk Potts swore the first jury to render a true verdict in the case of the United States against Jennie Day, charged with keeping a disorderly house. Jennie is s colored woman who occupiesa room ina tenement house, No. 1018 I street northeast, and two wonthsago she was con- vieted and put under bonds ona charge sim- ilar to the present one. Assistant District Attorney Mullowney arose and. addressing the jury, stated the charge and said that he expected to prove it. Lawyer Moss, who appeared for the woman, made bis opening speech, stating that he ex- pected to prove that his client was not guilty. Policeman Cook und several citizens were called and gave evidence against the woman. er Moss offered no evidence for the de- fense, but made a short argument. The judge charged the jury, in which he de- fined the law under which the prosecution was brought, and told them that they must make up their verdict from the testimony. idence for the prosecution was so clear that Mr. Mullowney found it unnecessary to | and make an argument. The jury went out the door, but in leas than three minutes returned with’a verdict of guilty, and a sentence of four months was imposed. eee A PROTRACTED BOARD MEETING. Important Matters Considered by the District Commissioners Today, The Commissioners held a protracted board meeting this morning, which lasted from about 10 o'clock until 1:30. Many old matters were ‘taken up and finally disposed of. ‘The subject of amending the building regula- tions was discussed at considerable length. ‘That portion relating to vaults received espe- cial attention. It was finally decided to appoint @ committee, composed of Captains Lusk, Ros- sell and Building Inspector Entwisle, to exam- ine into and report upon the whole question. The report of the committee recently aj Pointed to name alleys was referred, by mutual consent, to the engineer department. It was decided, in view of the opinion of the torney, to issue’ liquor licenses to apothecaries within one mile of the Soldiers’ Home. It was also de- cided aot to issue any more licenses for merry- go-rounds until the adjacent residentsand prop erty omners give their consent. in the matter of the extension of T street from lst street west to Le Droit avenue, the Commissioners decided that they would accept the award of the jury if the parties whose land wastaken were wiliNg, che Washi Se e plan pro; y ‘ashington an Geergenswenaieowd fe. running its cable line on 14th street betweer.

It is the annual sale of property for delinquent taxes. The sale takes place in the collector of taxes’ private office. Here the bidders and speculators assemble. There was not much of a crowd present this morning when Chief Clerk Collins, who is the auctioneer, opened the sale. Each one present had # book with the name of the delinquent owner, a description of the prop- erty and the taxes that had accrued. The auc- tioneer reads off the name of the owner, the property involved and then calls for bids. After waiting a reasonable length of time if no bid is received the property is knocked down to the District. ‘Very few people are aware of the chance of speculation ® tax sale offer. For instance, a man bids in a piece of property belonging to another. On this, according to law, he is en- titled to interest at the rate of 15 per cent per annum until the property is redeemed. If the same ie not paid in two years the purchaser receives @ tax title. This ie forever a cloud upon the title of the property until, of course, it is satisfied. According to the bad condition of the District tax laws, however, an owner of a piece of prop- erty cannot be dispossessed of the same by rea~ son of his failure to pay taxes. He can go on possessed of his property forever, although, of course, Le cannot dispose of it. Yesterday the property advertised in $00 blocks was sold. Today all property embraced within the squares numbered from 500 to 1 was sold. The sale will continue until all of the property has been disposed of. THE CORONER'S INQUEST. Arthur Davis Held for Causing the Death of Benny Payne. Arthur Davis, the colored boy who, it is charged, caused the death of Benny Payne, also colored, as published in yesterday's Star, was brought from jail this morning to the sixth precinct police station, where Coroner Patterson held an inquest. ‘The jury heard the testimony of a number of ONE HUNDRED YEARS.

From that time on the ushers were employed in seat- ing the people who presented tickets for admission. Coupons were attached to each ickot containing the number of aseat, so that each ticket h had s seat. Among the early arrivals was Mr. the v erable uncle of the inventor, Alexender Graham_ Bell. With several ladies he occupied one of the upper boxes. Mr. Alexander Graham Bell and Mr. Gardiner G. Hubbard joined the party box held a party of mour of- this cijy. The body of the house was filled and a large number were seated in tho gallery. A noticeable feature of the audience was redominance of the men, although @ ‘number of ladies showed their interest in the occasion by their presence. In the audience were noted @ number of men whose names are known Samra of their connection with useful in- vention. It was n representative audience of men who have in many instances devoted a life time to the development of inventions, or whose busi- ness is the manufacture of invented articles. THE PRESIDENT'S ARRIVAL. The Prosident arrived in the theater at about 2:25 and was escorted upon the stage by Hon. Jno. Lynch, the chairmen of the execu- tive committee, followed by Secretary Noble Mr. Halford. ‘The appearance of the distinguished party was greeted with applause. Among those who were seated on the stage were Postmaster General Wanamaker. Commissioner Mitchell, Senator Daniel, Assistant Secretary Bussey, the speakers and a number of other distinguished . As soon as the President had taken his seat the orchestra began a march, while the house, slowly filled with late comers. Upon the conclusion of the overture, Mr. Lynch, the chairman of the executive commit- tee, announced the officers of the centennial id then introduced the President as chair- man. PRESIDENT HARRISON'S REMARKS. He said that his connection with the meeting must be brief and might seem formal as other engagements would prevent his enjoy- ment of listening to the specches to follow. He could only by _ his presence at the opening express his apprecia- | of tion of the importance of the gathering, and he expressed a hope for the increased progress of invention. ‘The ownership in a clumsy device fashioned by savage hands from wood or stone was essen- tially property, but the growth of civilization secured to more refined devices quite as full an ownership. The organization of the patent system signi- fies very largely the symbol of the advance of the country in prosperity and civilization. Nothing more stimulates effort than securing the results of effort. The President then introduced Rev. Dr. Sun- derland, who invoked Divine blessing on the assemblage, himself from attendance and —_ introduced Secretary Noble, the first vice president of the assemblage, who thenceforth presi Cot missioner Mitchell arose at the reading desk as soon as introduced by Secretary Noble and spoke on the subject of “The Birth and Growth the American Patent System.” COMMISSIONER MITCHELL'S ADDRES?. “The patent system,” said Commissioner Mitchell, “had its birth ina statute against monopolies. That statute was enacted by a British parliament to sustain the British throne. From the earliest times the right to grant ex- clusive privileges had been asserted as a royal prerogative. Sometimes the power had been exercised beneficently. With vastly more fre- uency it was employed to bring in revenue to e royal oftiers, more and more as the sov- orcign struggled to govern without the aid of parliament. The power was abused and_per- verted until the days of Elizabeth, monopolies were conferred upon favorites of the court, ex- tending to the most ordinary article of com- merce and consumption. In aid of these il- 1000 | legal monopolies, arbitrary powers of search were granted, and heavy” penalties were in- flicted upon English merchants for engaging in ‘occupations which had been of common’ right for centuries. Of course such tyranny could not continue, and in the year 1623 the famous statute of James was enacted destroying all illegal monopolies by a single stroke, and declaring that in future Patents should be to inventors of new mana- tactures, and to them only for a limited tim: It is to this statute that legal writers ascribe | ‘Th the modern putent system. It is true that the statute of James was declaratory of the com- mon law as it was understood by the judges; it is true that after its enactment ‘ing’s pleasure was still, in theory, the source where the grant proceeded; it is true that subsequent $/ Let him make a corre making salt and others from mak ing this = except ina manner different In 1646 8 bis. colonies of Connecticut, Maryland and New York, showing, as he said, how deep seated was the understanding, wherever the law of England had been inherit oe} -that it was a justa: neficent exercine Lerel peed of governments to protect inventors Patents for limited Periods. The constitutions! - convention at ‘hiladelphia had been in session nearly three months before its attention was directed to pat- ents and copyrights. Mr. Mitchell then detailed the ag eed brought in by Mr. Madison and Mr. Charles Pinckney, which re- sulted in paragraph 8 of section 8 of article 1 of the Federal Constitution, nd ilustrious yy, these constitution framers,” the speaker said, “‘but they had no conception of the importance of what they did when, just before the curtain fell upon their labors, they decreed that the exclusive rights of inventors should be secured. They thought they were applying finishing. strokes and touches to an edifice which, was otherwise completed, when they were really at work ppon its broad foundations. For who is bold enough to say that the Consti- tution could have overspread a continent if the growth of invention and of inventive achieve- ment had not kept pace with territovial expan- sion. It is invention which has brought the Pacific ocean to the Alleghanies, It is inven- tion which, fostered by asingle sentence of their immortal work, has made it possible for the flag of one republic to carry more forty symbolic stars.” ‘TRE FIRST Law. The speaker then detailed the circumstances attending the passage of the first patent law of April 10, 1790. Under that law tho Secretary of State, Secretary of War and the Attorney General were to determine in each cuse whether FA rd should be granted.

A new act was passed February 21, 1793, which law prevailed, with some modifications, until the Breat law of 1896 was enacted” AN EPOCH CREATING LAW. “The act of 1836,” said the speaker, “created an epoch. An eminent statesman has pro- nounced it the most important event from the Constitution to the civil war. Less than 10,000 patents, precede it, more than 450,000 ave followed in its train. Under it the patent office was established. Under it the first com- missioner of patents was appointed, and hardly had the approving signature ‘of Andrew Jackson been affixed befor the walls of yonder Doric temple, already completed in design, began to rise. The most im) " change brought about by the act of 1836 was the restoration of the examination system and the establishment of an examining corps of experts. The English system, developed on executive lines, relegated all investigation to the courts; the American plan, developed on Jogislative lines, made the investigation procede the grant. The law of 1790 followed the American trend developed in the colonies, and Jefferson and his associates formed an examin- ing board. ‘Then camo the act of 1798, which avowedly imitated the English system, and permitted a patent to be issued to any one who should allege that he had made an invention, and should make onth that he believed himself to be the true inventor. ‘THE AMERICAN sYSTEX. “The act of 1896 restored the American sys- tem. The patent office was vested with quasi- judicial as well as with executive functions, the patent being adjudicated upon in advance, and possessing, a8 soon as it was granted, the at- Tributes of « patent, which, usder the ol tem, had been tested by expensive litigation. The'importance to inventors of the system of preliminary examination has been declared to inestimable. It places at the service of the humblest inventor the services of trained experts in law and mechanics. It makes the patent something more than an assertion of right,something more than a challenge to the world to show that the patentee was not the true inventor. It bears testimony that it has been: compared with prior patents and publications, domestic and foreign, and with all that has been done in the United States, as faras known, and that the device or process claimed is what it professes to be—a new departure in the arts. ‘us the patent acquires an immediate com- mercial value—a value which is enhanced just in proportion as means are supplied by the government for making an inquiry as complete snd exhaastive asit is in human power to eit “THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1891. 5 not 60, however, when patent lawe and for a hundred’ years men have to share with the thetr ne red ideas, because of imvitation contained in the ths f Ee é 2, i f or more drawings of Each number of the Gazite may of maps, exhibiting that t to the ilfimitable unknowa sun. of human invention has clocks and watches of time.

Carrol D. Wright, commissioner of lnbor, then gave an interesting discussion of “The Relation of Invention to ie Commissioner Wright's Address, Commissioner Wright in the course of his address said that the influence of inventions upon labor has been felt in two directions, eco nomically and sociologi- economical bee in the displacement or contraction of labor, and, second, in the ex- pansion of labor. Very many modern inven- tions have created ¢1 ployments where none existed before. In aso- ciological sense machin- ery has brought with it a new school of ethics. It is the type and repre- m of the civili tion of this period, because it embodies, so far as mechanics are concerned, the concentrated, clearly wrought out thought of the age. Under the influence of inventions the working man has learned that from « rude instrument of toil he has become an intelligent exponent of hidden laws; that he is not simply an animal wanting animal's contentment, but is some- thing more and wants the contentment which belongs to the best environment. The mistake should not be made of assign- ing the cause of strikes and controversies to retrogression or to supposed increasing an- tagonism or to any desire to destroy the grand results of past inventions. How anew system shall be established with perfect justice to capital and to labor, recognizing the moral forces at work contemporaneously with the in- dustrial, and the perfectly just distribution of Profits relative to the use of inventions, is the +t problem of the age. Machinery is young— i fact, ia only the forerunner of more golden deeds.’ That the workingman does not receive full justice as the result of the use of inven- tions must be the conclusion of every student. Justice Blatchford of the Supreme Court in- troduced the legal side of the patent aystem by ing in scholarly manner about “A Cen- tury of Patent Law.” ‘Mr. Justice Blatchford’s Address, “Mr. Chairman and Ladies and Gentlemen: Ihave been requested by the committee which has charge of the ceremonies of this celebration of the beginning of the second century of the American patent system to address you on the subject of ‘A Century of Patent Law.’ As we derive the principles of our statutory and ad- ministrative patent law from England it seems P to regard the sutiject as covering En- glish patent law to a certain extent.” ustice Blatchford then sketched the prog- ress of paten: law in England. Prior to an English statute passed in 1623, entitled “An act concerning monopolies and dispensations with penal laws and the forfeiture thereof,” com- monly called “the statute of monopolies,” it was customary for the king to grant exclusive privileges or monopolies to individuals accord- ing to his pleasure, and not because of any claim to prior invention or discovery. Edward III even granted to two persons a patent of privilege for the sole ing of “the philoso~ pher’s stone,” and patents were afterward granted for the sole manufacture of playing cards and for an exclusive right to sell various necessaries of life. But the statute of monopo- lies did away with all this sort of thing and monopolies were abolished as contrary to law, excepting grants to the inventors of any man- ner of new manufacture of the privilege of working the same. .
