FOUNDATION FOR THE REPORT. Sald to 1 i the ve Heen Undaly Interest of Several Persons Who Acts Must e tnvestigated at Present Term, Judee Thoruell sprung quite a sensation in the district court vosterday morning sum moning the members of the grand jury be. fore him for an examination as to the rumor that had roached him to the effect that some- had been tampering with them. The move was made upon information furnished the court by County Attorney Organ and J. N. Baldwin. According to their statement the ddly the grand jury was empaneicd and set to work they were called into the office of the county auditor, where they found Auditor Headricks and Super- viso abam awaiting thom. The two gentlomen named told them that the county fond had beon reduced from $2000 to £5,000. and that the county finances were consequently not in a very flourlshing eondi tion, They requested tho grand jury to be very careful in examining criminal cases, and to 100k at both sides before returning 1n- dictmonts, so that the county should not be put to the exuvense of criminal prosecutions whero there was not good ground for the be- lief that a couviction would be the result This, the prosecuting attorney thought, was directly intended to influence the grand jury iu conside instJ. K. Kim- ball and G. H. Champ, and be and Baldwin accordingly had the jury brougnt before the court for an_examination to find out just what had been said to them by the county officers, The examination brought out the f. he had beea ap proached by Hendricks, who said he wanted to see the members of the board in his office. Axtell replied that if he had anything to say to the members of the board be ought to come vefore it when it was in sossion, Hen- dricis replied that it was nothing counected with the regular work of the jury, but he simply bad something to say to them as citi- zens of Pottawattamic county. The board met and went into the oftice as requested, ana there found Grabam, The two officials then procecded with the remarks as above stated, pointing out how the loxislature had reduced their levy fron: 6 to 4 mills, und that economy was therefore necessury 1o all de- partments of tho county work. After tho examination haa been completed Judgo Thornell gave the jury some additional instructions, in which he warned them to_be more careful in the communications they had with outside parties. It would be u sad state of affairs, ho said, if the question of economy were considerea in bringing criminals to justice. The grand jury could no doubt de- Crease expenses by fuiling to have any in- dictments brouzht in at all, but such a \thing would hardly bo advisable, ‘T jury must cuard against bringing in_indictments cases where there is oot a reasonable ground for believing that a_codviction will result; but at the samo time it must not let tho question of expense enter into its deliber ations. Ho cxhorted them not to allow any remarks that might have been made influence them in any way, cither for or against Kim. bail and Champ. ' He then sent them back to their work. “The uffair created a big breezo in the court room, ns well as upon the street outside. Rumors were set in circulation by some ono that the court would have Hendricks and Grabam brought up for an examination on the charge of contemt in the afternoon at 2 o'clock, but the afternoon wore away and no move of this kind was mace, and County Attorney Organ states thut it is hardly likely that anything furtber will como from it. Hendricks and of Foreman Axtell Graham were asked for their version of the uffair. They admitted that the conversation bad passed between them ana the jury pretty much as had been charged, ana stated that” they had merely acted in'accorvance with a request mude by the Board of Supervisors at its last meetin They denied, however, that they nad an personal intorest in making the request and said they had only been carrying out the in- structions of tho board. They both talked freely, and stated their willingness to toll Judge Thornell just what they had said, regardless of consequonces. Finley Burke, attorney for Kimball & Chanip, thought this movement had been made by Baldwin mainly for the purpose of timidating the jury into returaing an in- dictment ugainst Kimball and Champ. “‘After an uproar of this kind.” said he, “it is casy to see that the jury will be a little backward about dismissing the two men, oven if the evidence against” them was some: what light, on account of a droad of being accused of corruption. Nothing is easier to make, and vothing is harder t disprove, than a charge of corruption, and the best of juries would be more or’ less ularmed at having a Damocles’ sword of this kind nang- ing over their heads.” Some color is given to this theory by the fact that before the jury had left their seats at the close of the examiuation certain parties were on the streets industriously spreading the rumor that Hendricks aud Graham bad been bribing the grand jury to discharge Kimball and Champ. 1tis belicved, also, by some that Mr. Graham’s aspirations for the offico of mayor played somo part in the scheme, it g a well known fact that there hus been but litile love lost between Baldwin and Graham since the guestion of the _reduction of the taxes of the Union Vacific Ratiway company came bofore tho Board of Supervisors #nd was settled un- satisfactorily to Mr. Baldwin, who was at- toruoy for the company Walnut block and Wjyoming coal, fresh mined, received daily Thatcher, 16 Main, Kobhed of His Riches, A young nan wandered discousolately up Main and down Uearl stroet yesterday morn- g, looking in vain tor a man that failed to come to light. After he had spent somo time in this way he cornered u bystander and con- fided to him the story of a brand new woe that had entered his life and made it for tho time being & nightmare with steel shoes on. Ho came in from Neola yesterday moruing and on the way happenod to meet a smooth looking gentleman with red whiskers and o fur cap, who introduced himself to him as the reprosentative of the firm of J. M. Mor- gun & Son of Waluut, but failed to give his name. The genoral teuor of nis conversation was that ho had been wanderiag upand down tue earth in sewrch of Just such & young man us Mr. Redinbaugh, and nothing would suit him any better than to engage h mright then and theve to work for bim. A bargain was quickly entered into and soon the two men arrived at the local depot, where they boarded a Main streot car for up town. At te Merriam block they alighted, and then it whas that the bewhiskered found that be was in pressing noed of funds. ~Redinbaugh was ouly too glad to accommodate him with §20, which was the extent of his pile, and the loanee went up intg the Merriam block to nis oco, telling his benefactor that he would e down at once. Minutes fled, out he did not return, and it was not until a man to whom he told bis story informed him that he had been played for a sucker that the whole truth burst in upoa bis rustio mina.

BEE Diractious to Tnventors Tssued by The Beo - Bureau of Claims, THE PATENT METHODS OF OFFICE, Howed by t the Author of a otect His Rights sts of Obtatnlng o atent, Course ventio =, To the inventor the all important question presents ltself, “How can I securea patont!™ and to this Tk Bxe Bureau offers the fol- lowing explanation: Inventors as & class are not famillar with the laws under which letters patent are granted, the forms and practice in the patent oftice at Washington and the technical mothods of casting specifications and claims to properly protect their iuventions against fufringers, yet the valus of the patent and even its validity depend largely upon tho careful and expert preparation of the case, Specifications must be drawn to fully dis close the invention, to distinguish betwoe what is new and what is old, and claims, upon which the value and validity of the patent depend, must be cast to fully cover the invention yet not to encronch upon pat- ents alroady grantod. Iailuro in either of these respacts often renders the patent value less orvoid. The employmont of counsel skilled in patent law 15 thorefore usually a prerequisite to the proper prosecution of & casc and a grant of a valuable patent. Mauy inventors suffer the loss of that should be derived from valuable inven- tions owing to insuflicient protection by pat- ets procured through incompetent or care- less agents, ete. For What ¢ } Under tho laws of the United States let- ters patent are granted to any parson who has inventod or discovered any new and use ful ar., machine, manufacture or composition of matter, ot has inventod any now or useful improvement thereon. Term of Patent, A patent is granted for seventeen yoars, during which time the owner has solo and exclusive right to make, use and soll the patented invention. benefits How to Proceed, For economic reasous before making ap- plication to the patent oftice for a patent, the novelty and patentability of the inven- tion should be ascertained, because, if the invention is not new or mot patentable an unnecessary expense is mcurred by filing an application on which a putent can never be granted, ete, The first thing to be done is to find out whether or not the invention is new and patentuble. For advice on the point it is necessary to send to the bureau @ rough or complete skotch or a_photograph of the invention, to- gether with & brief description thereof, setting forth the object of the improve- ments, the arrangement of the parts and the advantages attaiued. While a modei 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 1f a request is made to tha effect. Upon receipt of the data mentioned suffic- lentto enable the inventiou o be understood our cousel will at once examine thereinto, and will advise without charge what is the best course to pursue sad will express an opinion, from thewr kunowledge of the arts and natents already geanted, as to the pateut- abi'ity of the invenuion. In this connection it is recommonded that the best und safest course is to have a special _search made in the patent offico to ascertain whether or not the invontion has been heretufore patented. Tno advantage of such a search is that if nosaticipating patent is discovered tha application can bo filed with a greater decree of cortainty, wheroas if the invention is found to be oid all further ex- penseis avoided. The costof a search of this nature is 85, and with the report of the result thereof the inventor will be furnished with copics of such patents, if any, as em- brace his ideas. It is much Dbetter to have this search mado in the outset before incu r ring any expense whatever regarding the a p plication for patent. Jf 1t 18 found that he inven tion is new avd patentablo the client is advised to procead with tho filing of au_application for patent, and will thon be requested to remit $15 to cover the first government fee and £ in payment of cost of drawing, whon ono is nocessary, As soon as possiblo after the receipt of this remittunce the specification of the invention will be carefully prepared aud forwarded to the inventor, together with forms for application for patent ready for execution. Upon return of the latter the caso will be promptly filed at the patent oftice and notice will be sent when action is had there- on, aud also of the nature of such action. The examining corps of the patont oftico is agivided into thirty-two divisions, among which the applications ave divided according 10 the ofticial classitication.

The quostions involved are many, and of tho most intricato nature. It is al- ways & matter of such great importance that n0 one should ever claim that another is in- fringing on his rights, or, likewise, no atten- tion should be paid to'the claims of infringe- ment by others until the questions involved are carefully passed upon by a reliable at- torney.

Important Warning It seems romarkable that in this enlight- ened age it becomes tho duty of every re- liable and trust vorthy attorney in patent matters toadvise his clients to beware of the many sharks who set out with the ap parent intention of dofrauding iuventors immeuately ufter the 1ssue of their patents. When a patent appears in the Patent Office Gazette patentees are besot with innumer- able offers, solicitations, requests, otc., some protoncing to wat to purchase their patents, while others offer to take an interest therein under promise of procuring foreign patents. The sole object of these peoplo is to obtain money from inventors, and they never make the slightest endeavor to carry out their groundless or worthless promises, Models.

Tue Bee BUREAU oF Cruvs, in dealing with the claims arising under the Indian depredations act, has been successful in pro- tecting a largo number of subscribers aud others from extortion and loss. I'rom com- plaiuts that have come to it, however, 1t ap- pears thut many of the claiuants do not un derstand their position under the act. At a timo wheu thore appeared to be littlo chanco that congress would take up the claims or make any appropriation to pay them, thoy siguod contracts with the Washington agents, promisiug from one-quarter to one-haif the amount to the agent in case the money should bo collected. In viow of this extortion con- gress inscrted a provision in the act annul- ing all contracts and limiting the agent's commission to 15 or 20 per cout. The claimants aii probably understand that heagent's commission has been limited by the law, but many of them, according to their own statements, do not understand that they are free to do as they please about employing tho agent thoy had first chosen. Thoy con sigergtliat they aro still bound to employ tho agent with whom thoy signed tho exor bitaa contracts whother thoy aro satisfied with nim or not. 1t was the incention of congross to prote thom at ail points and they wero left on the passago of tho act free to’ do as thoy ploased and employ whom thoy pleased. Section i of tho uct atated: *That all sales, transfers or assignients of any such claims heretoforo or hereafter mude, except such js have ocourred in the due administration of docedents’ os tates, and all contracts horotofore made for fees and aliowances to claimants' attorneys are herevy declaved voic. “There could be no mistake about the moan- ing of this. All claimants had to make new contracts with ugents after tho passage of the act, aad they were at_liberty to emplov any one thoy pléasod. If they were ploased with the zeul and acts of thoir first avent they might make their new contract with him. 1fthoy wore dissatisad thoy might choose any other ageat that they plo “Those who have not signed new contracts sincetho passage of the act may profit oy this 10 secure much botter torms than they could ot! wise get from the ageunts, The fact that Tu Bee BUkeau is doing the work for the baro expense involved has had a good effect in moderating the charges of all agents to those who know how to protect them- selves.

The man spoke to all in n voice that recalled visions of their former landlord, and most of the peasants fled in superstitious fright from the sound. Hardly les fright waus eaused at the castle when the old man sent in a card bearing tho words, *‘Casimir von Mionszynski. When Count Potocki met him the old man explained that he had given the physician who gave out his death cortificate at the asylum and conducted the mock funeral $35,000 for his part in the planand a promise not to reveal the fraud until after the physi ciun’s death. That event had been an- nounced, he suid, and he, therefore, had returned to his estate. The old man said he had taken securities for about #50,000 abroad with him and had lived on the intevest, His object in all this remarkable performance was to discover, he said, how his heir would administer his property after his death. That story was treated rather gingerly at first by Count Potocki, butthe discovery by disinterment thut the coflin from the asylum had been buried empty incroased the suspicion of truth avoused by the old man’s personul appearance. The old man’s story of his wandes- ings abroad is under investigation, and meantime he is inquiring into the man- gement of the property, which he claims as his own. The editor of the Dziennik PPolski is sure that the old man is Casimir von Mionezynskl, and many Lembergers believe 100, but Count Potocki says that he will concede noth- ing until his tracing of the old man’s wanderings is completed. i - SETTLING 4 SHORTAGE. nst Gunesat Banks 1,000 ), Sult to Be Tustitu for Bostox, Mass., Jan t Tue Bee. | -District Attorney veen instructed oy tho department at Wash ington to briog suit against Goneval Banks for the r« v of about §4,000, which, on i sottlement of accounts as United States mar- nt It claims awount ulle; defalea wits for many Statos marshal Mr. Pool money s ve shal, appears to bo due the govern is undorstood that General Bauks that the shortage represonts the which be lost through the tion of William D.
