FOR NEXT GOVERNOR OF OHIO
BUCKEYE REPUBLICANS LOOK
ING AROUND FOR CANDIDATE.
Judge Robert W. Tayler Frequently
Mentioned as Fine Guber
natorial Timber.
CUiio republicans are discussing eaitdi- i
date- for the governorship nomination j
iHNt year. They want a strong man to j
i; n against .ludson Harmon. the demo
? atii incumbent, who is likely to be re
nominated. Oh loans say that if Mr. Har
mon should be re-elected he would im
mediately become a strong presidtntial
possibility, and they don't want the demo
crats to have as big a man as Harmon.
1'hey hope the democrats will take some
one who could be depended upon to grab
a gold brick, by way of a fantastic is
>iie. and run off with it, while the re
publicans get away with the real goods,
and Harmon, they say. wouldn t do for
that.
Among the names frequently mentioned
by the Ohio repub.icans as fine guberna
torial timber is ex-Representative Kob
e's \V. Tayler. now holding a federal
itidgship in Ohio. Mr. Taj ler had a|
tine leeord in Congress, ^jotti as a .-tates-j
man and as a politi ian. and has added |
t?? the luster of ru~ ability by his service j
? ?II the bench.
Representative l> A. Hollingsworth of j
the Cadiz tlistrh is pushing tiie Tayler j
i??>ni. At present his efforts are directed
toward bringing pressure to bear upon
Juduc Tayler to lend his consent to the
g ibernatorial candidacy. A life position !
u;i the federal bench as against the un
< ??rtainty of a rousing old-fashioned gov-|
? ifiorship campaign present-- a bird-in
tiie-hanu proposition >!;at is pretty hard!
to overconv , and it is not known what
su<-eeiiv <ien. Mollmgsworth is having.
Hut they do say that Judge Tayler, who
is comparatively a youiig man, has shown
.-i^ti-' erf restiveness once or iwi.e audi
hankerim; to get baek into the fray. The
politi al sirens, too, ar.- whispering to i
icm that it isn't always the worst tiling ;
m the world to give up a judgship? j

Papers in the Wright Suit Filed
at Buffalo.
CLAIMS OF THE BROTHERS
Say All Flying Machines Come Un
der Their Patents.
LONG LEGAL BATTLE IMMINENT
Present Case the Beginning- of a
Court Contest Destined to Equal
Famous Telephone Litigation.
Hl'FKALO, X. V.. August 1M.-Papers
were tiled in tlie I'nitcd Stat?\s court here
today in the action brought li.v the Wright
brothers against Glenn H. Curtiss and
the Herring-* "tirfiss Company of llam
'nondsport. manufacturers of aeroplanes,
for alleged infringement of patents.
Similar suit was begun in New York
Thursday against the Aeronautic Society
in that city. The bill of complaint against
the Herring-* "urtiss Company is answer
able at the October term of the Cnited
States court in this district, which prob
ably will be held .it Lock port.
War among the aviators, which has
been looked for during il>e last year, has
broken out iu New York in the shape <?!
a suit tiled 1>\ the Wright brothers
against the Aeronautic Society on account
of the tlving machine which Glenn H.
Curtiss soli I to the society. and which
has been on exhibition in New York and
has made several sticcf ssful flights at
Hempstead Plains.
This is the beginning of what probably
will be a long-drav, n-o it tight in the
courts comparable to th - litigation over
tRe Berliner patents in the famous Bell
telephone case. Suit lias been tiled by
the Wrights, Wilbur Wright sigtiitig the
bill of complaint. The suit charges the
Aeronaut!'- Society with exhibiting for
nionev a machine that violates the V.*right
patents, and asks to be given thi- custody
of the machine for the purpose of de
stroying it, and asks also for an account
ing for the gate money taken in at the
exhibitions and for damages for the in
fringement of patent.
The Aeronautic Society states unoffi
cially through Lee Burridge that the
machine was bought from the Herring
Curt iss Company with a guarantee that
It did not infringe the Wright patents, and
the society shifts the defense of the case
under this guarantee to the Herring
Curt iss Company.
Claim All Rights.
While this suit is not of supreme im
portance iu itself it means the start of
a l?gal tight thai is of the greatest in
terest in the general development of avia
tion. ft is carrying out a promise that
the Wrights made when they were here
recently. They cla m the basic patent
under which all successful heavier than
air flying machines operate, and they
claim that all such machines that are
flying now are an infringement of that
patent. They claim that Bleriot. Latham,
Cody and Curtiss are all infringing this
patent, besides numerous smaller aviators
who have machines that have never yet
flown.
When Orville Wright was last here he
was asked what he and his brother pur
posed doing about these cases, lie re
plied that in the majority of instances
they did not think they were worth light
ing. but if there were any machines put
on the market that cut Into their busi
ness they should go after them for in
fringement of patent. This seems to
have happened in the case of the new
Curtiss flier, and the suit probably is the
beginning of long litigation that will
straighten out in the courts the claims
of the various interested parties.
Beginning of the Conflict.
The beginning of the conflict with the
Curtiss machine was just about two
years ago. At that the Wrights had
been operating a power-driven machine,
and while they had not yet come into
prominence they were recognized among j
scientists interested in the art as among I
the premier aviators of the world. When j
Orville Wright lirst came to Fort .Myer
with the aeroplane that was afterward
broken up ho was asked about the work
of the Aerial Kxperiment Association, ;
which was just maklrig some trials with
the June Bug. the first machine which
was flown at llammondsport. He said
at the time that the use of wing tips
was an infringement of the broad Wright
patent, but that th^ Kxperiment Asso
ciation was using it with the permission
of I imself and his brother, and that so
long as it was used merely for experi
mental purposes they cared nothing
aoout it. The Aerial Kxperiment Asso
ciation was formed under the presidency
of Or. Alexander Graham Bell, with a
membership consisting only of F. W.
Baldwin. J. A. IX .\lcCurdy. (Jlenti Cur
tiss and the late Lieut. Selfridge, who
was killed in 11In- fall of the Wright
aeroplane at Fort Myer.
< M ville Wright said that the experiment
association had written the Wright
brothers tor details of their work, and
that these had been furnished for ex
periment: ! purposes and to help along
the advancement <>f the art. The ass >
ci.ition afterward built the June Bug. the
lied Wing am. the White Wing, all of
which were more or less successful. In
i he June Bug Curtiss won the Scientific
American trophy for a flight over a
measured lv lometer.
I'he mosi successful of all the machines
of the association, however, was Mc
Curdy's Silver Dart, which was tried out
at great length over the ice at Badeck,
N S last winter, and which McCurdy
and Baldwin have since undertaken t->
manufacture iu Canada, where it is said
the Wrights have no patent.
Since that time the Herring-Curtiss
Company was formed at llammondsport.
anil the latest Curtiss machine with
which long (lights were made and which
was -old to the Aeronautic Society of
New > ork was built with some changes
iii the method of control which the manu
facturers claimed got away from the
N right patents, but which the Wrights
s< em to think did not.
The Fundamental Question.
The fundamental question involved is
whether or not the Wright patent covers
all forms of rudders for guiding that
may be construed into warping the
planes, whether such rudders are really
a part of the main planes or both. The
original Wright patent was applied for
in I'.m:: and was not finally granted till
l'.MtK. It was for the warping of the main
planes of the machine so as to maintain
lateral balance in the air. The patent
specifically stated that the planes were
flat, wherein they differed from the tna
* bine t iat .was finally sold to the govern- '
nieiit. lor this had curved planes to in
crease the lifting power, though the
warping feature was retained.
Claim a Broad One.
Their claim is just about as broad as
though all wagons had gone on runners
and somebody had then invented *
wheel and claimed a basic patent on all
wheeled traffic. What view the courts
will take of the case it is, of course,
impossible to say. If the Wrights'
claim is sustained, it will mean a basic
patent for them, which is a rare thing
in patent office practice. So rare is it
in fact, that all of the blanks for
claims in the patent office are made to
read ?Improvements on" various de
vices In fact, about the last basic pat
ent that was granted was the one on
the sewing machine, though there have
be.-it numberless improvements on the'
sewing machine since then.
All the aviators of the world will be
interested in the outcome of the Wright
curtiss litigation, and much of the fu
ture development of the art will depend
on the settlement.

? i
l
Joy was unconfined at the municipal
| bathing beach. near the Washington
j Monument, yesterday afternoon during
the third of the series of aquatic eon
tests recently inaugurated by Supt. Wil
! Ham B. Hudson.
Juvenile Washington turned out in large
numbers to take part, and fully 1,000
i'spectators of all ages?the largest crowd
that h:is gathered at the beach this st a
j son?lined up at the edge of the water,
i cheered themselves hoarse and nearly
! fell into the pool in their enthusiasm
! for their favorites.
I A feature inaugurated yesterday was
j the holding <>f races for colored boys who
i patronize the beach. There were many
entries in the events in the pool reserved
; for the colored patrons, and an enthu
j siastic gallery help <1 lo enliven the occa
i sion
i A new program was arranged for the
i white boys yesterday afternoon. There
| was a reh.y raee between three teams of
I four boys eaeli. an underwater swim, a i
, tnb race and a ?iuarter-mile swim. But !
the quarter-mile swim Was the "classy"!
I event of the afternoon. To go that dis-j
itaiicc the boys had to swim the length!
'of the l>ig pool Twenty times. On ac
! count of the distance there were l're
Iqueiit hanges in the standing of the con
testants. ami the best swimmers who
| patronize the beach Were entered The t
j spectators cheered wildly during ihe en-!
jtire contest. I
A Warm Contest This.
Several boys started in the race, <*lar
ence Bailey, Carl Oarrick, Frank Hart
man. Blaine Fitzgerald, Julian Washing
ton and Edward Foster. Shortly after
the start, it was seen that there would
be a warm tight for first honors between
Bailey and Washington.
During the first part of the race Bailey ;
?steadily increased his lead on Washington,
atid in the eighteenth lap, with only two
more to go. lie was fifty feet ahead.
Washington, who had been using the
breast stroke up to that time, then
changed to a crawl stroke, lie crept up
steadily on the leader and succeeded in
pa* ing him in the last lap.
When it was determined that Washing
ton had won the spectators suddenly
discovered that Blaine Fitzgerald had
been swimming strong in the final lajis
and crept up almost even with Bailey. To
many of the spectators it appeared that
Bailey and Fitzgerald had finished iti a
dead heat, but the judges decided that
Bailey was one stroke ahead and award
id him second place. Frank Hartman
was fourth and Carl Carrick was fifth.
Carrick surprised even his warmest ad
mirers by his work throughout the race,
and he is likely lieu eforth to be recog
nized as a dangerous competitor in any
contest in which he enters.
The relay race was also a spirited con
test. Th > winning team was composed of
Joseph Young. Thomas Monahan, Louis
Ely and Richard Zappone.
The imder-water swim created much in
terest. and some of he spectators hefd
their breath from excitement as long as
th<> swimmers did from necessity. Jo
seph Young proved the best in this con
test, swimming the length of the pool
, and 15 feet back, making a total distance
of So feet. Clarence Bailey was second,
making U5 feet, and Julian Worthington
was third, with a distance just under 65
feet.
"Tubby" Wins Again.
"Tubby" Ryan maintained his position I
las undisputed-holder of the championship
I In the tub race. He easily finished first
1 in that event, going the entire distance
i of i:so feet without shipping a drop of
j wat r. Thpre are a number of young
1 sters, however, who are practicing daily.
and intend to wrest the title from him
next Saturday.
When the contests had reached their
most exciting point Supt'. Hudson was
approach ;d by a very much excited lady.
She wanted to know if a little red-head
ed boy with freckles on his face and a
rosebud mouth was among th swimmers. 1
Supt. Hudson nave one glance around ]
the pool at the squirming mass of young
sters in swimming tugs, and seemed to j
see scores of boys who answered the de
scription. The particular hoy uas finally
identified by Hie visitor. H ? was in
swimming tops and was intent upon en- ,
tering one of the afternoon contests, j
When several of his companions vouched '
for Ids ability to win the race the lady j
was persuaded to assent to him diving
into the wat *r, and she afterward saw
him give a good account of himself. She
was pressed into service as one of the
judges, and before she left was an en- '
thusiastic advocate of aquatic sports.
Supt. Hudson explained afterward that
had the boy not b?en entered in one of ;
the races lie would have been ordered to
dress and leave at once, and the disci
pline is so well known at the beach that i
such an order would have be^n obeyed
by the boy without hesitation.

DIGESTING THE EVIDENCE.
Court of Inquiry Studying the
Brownsville Case.
The Brownsville court of inquiry is still
struggling: with the several hundred thou
sand words of the re cord of the investiga
tion before the Senate military commit
tee two years ago. Brig. Gen. John M.
Wilson. 1*. S. A., retired, a member of the!
court, has spent so many of his midnight
hours iti the effort to master this mass of
testimony that his .physician has warned
him to take a rest, otherwise lie will
break down his health. The indications
now are that the court will make a
journey to Brownsville early in the
autumn before announcing a date on
which it will listen to the oral testimony ;
of the soldiers of the 2">th Infantry dis
charged for alleged participation in the
"shooting up" of Brownsville in August,
15*x;. It is not likely that the court will
be called on to spend much time in hear
ing new testimony, as there can be little
to add to tiie voluminous record already
giving its members so much toil night
and day.
Speed Laws to Be Enforced.
Maj. Sylvester, superintendent of po
lice, has directed members of his de
partment to see to the enforcement of the
speed laws relating to street cars. In an
order yesterday afternoon it was stated
that the executive officer of the District

plained about the fa'Iure to enfrn-e ''r
laws. Prosecutions, if any. will be filed i
in the name of the interstate commerce j
commission. 1

FIQHTINGTHE RABIES
Progress of the Campaign in
This City.
SITUATION IS UNCHANGED
Just s& Many Dogs Killed. But Not
Captured.
DROP IN CASES THIS MONTH
i
Number of Persons Under Observ
ance Jumped in Spring. But
Rapidly Fell Off.
During the unusual spread of rabies
through the District in the past two
years three departments of the govern- j
mont have had a.large amount of extra
work thrown on them. The situation
at the present moment is in about the
sam" state as it was when the crusade
against ownerless dogs was commenced
in real earnest. The three departments
?most directly interested are the dog
pound, the bureau of animal industry
iy the Department of Agriculture and
the special Pasteur laboratory, which
has been established under the marine
hospital service, in its new building at
the foot of 25th street.
Taking the records of a year ago, when
the anti-dog crusade was at its height,
to the present, when the pound force
has been reduced and the muzzle law
relaxed, it is seen that there is but Utile
change in the status of the diseas?. In
July a year ago there were eleven cases
of possible rabies under treatment at
the marine hospital laboratory. Dur- j
ing the past month there were twelve,
and the number has fluctuated almost
regularly with the season during the j
intervening time.
The dogs captured by the District j
poundkeeper have rapidly diminished, al
though there are almost as many killed
now as heretofore, though not so many
are captured. In July of HtOS there were
1 dogs captured, and of these -lt>u
were killed. During that month there
were eleven cases under treatment at the !
hospital for protection against rabies.
In the following month of August there
were twenty cases under treatment, but
twelve of these came from Panama,
where there had been a similar outbreak,
the patients being sent to Washington
for treatment. There were 1,058 dogs
captured in August of last year, and
of these were killed. The next month
there were, only x.VT captured and ?UK?
killed, but the cases under treatment
had Increased l."?.
During the remainder of the year the
cases under treatment ;?! the Murine
Hospital laboratory gradually dwind'ed
down from nine in November to s;x the
following March. The number of dogs
captuieu" also decreased to about per
month. At this time '.he blizzard inter
vened and three of ihc extra wagons
which were In use at the pound were taken
off duty and the money paid for them
was spent in the repair of telephone and
telegraph lines. The change did not have
much a:>?arent effect on the number t?f
dogs captured, being from 1200 to 10? a |
month, nearly all of which were killed, j
Apparently the surplus ol" dogs captured j
was among the more aristocratic class of i
animals, whose owners were willing to re- j
deem them at the nrice of the tine itn- j
posed by the District.
Gradual Increase.
Meantime from March, li*<?, to thej
present time, there has been a gradual in- j
crease in the number of.cases of sus-j
pevter rabies under treatment at the
laboratory. In March there were but six,
in April there were eleven. In May thir
teen, in June fourteen, with a slight drop
to twelve during July.
During the present month there has
been a most remarkable drop in cases
under treatment, there now being but one
on the books of the institution. This
seemes rather a pity. too. as the labor
tory has just Installed a new operating
room for handling the rabies cases, ?
place of absolutely surgical clenllhess.
and one in which It would appear
almost a privilege to be treated.
The town has endeavored at all times to
induce people who were bitten by dogs to
save the anlmv.l for observation. It is
explained ihat it is much more satisfac
tory to keep a suspected dos undei* ob
servation and And out whether he really
i
Jia-- the rabies rather than to kill him
and run the risk of bavins the <lisease
overlooked in a microscopic examination.
With this end in view, the town has
established a series of isolation kennels
on one side of the inclosure, and here are
nearly aJv
inspection.
It may be said. too. that quite a num
ber of these suspects proved to be per
fectly healthy. During the period of
their incarceration they are visited daily
by an expert from the bureau of animal
industry, a different doctor making liie
inspection each day.
Looking for the Germ.
Dugs that are killed after having l?it
len people an' sent to the Department
of Agriculture, where the experts make
a microscopic examination of the head
to determine the presence of the hydro
phobia g?rm. During the past tin >e
months thirty such specimens were sent
to the department, and twenty-two >>f
them showed the genu of hydrophobia.
Nearly all of these suspects were sent
from the pound. Three were from Vir
ginia. and of these one proved to be
rabid.
Both the pound and the bureau of ani
mal industry would emphasize the ad
visability of keeping a suspected dog
alive and under observation, as it 's
much easier in that way to deter
mine whether or not he is really mad.
The bureau of animal industry says also
that it believes the present increase in
cases of suspected rabies is due almo.-u
entirely to the afcsence of the muzzle
law. which allows dogs to run at larg**
unrestrained. It is probable that an
effort will !>?* made to have :i muzzle
ordinance re-enacted this summer, and
probably it will be continued in force
for at least a year.
