Washington, Feb. 28.— Three ar
rests here brought to light a scandal
In the patent office which has been
under Investigation since early In
February, and which revolves around
an Invention which Is valued ut more
than $500,000. Tfie parlies arrested
are Ned W. Barion, third assistant
examiner o f the Patent Office; Henry
W. Everdlng, a patent attorney of
Philadelphia, and John A. Heany, an
Inventor o f York, Pa.
They have
been Indicted by the United States
government for attempting to de
fraud the government and for de
stroying public records.
The Indictment charges that the
three men, "w ith an Intent to steal
and destroy,” carried away from the
patent office letters, specifications
and amendments relating to patents
and unlawfully and w illfu lly de
stroyed them. The Investigation was
made upon Information that as a
result o f a conspiracy John A. Heany
had been given a patent on an Inven
tion for manufacturing filaments and
electrodes for electric Incandescent
lamps.
The facts disclosed by the Investi
gation were o f such a character that
they were presented to the grand
Jury. I t is alleged that through con
nivance with Ned W. Barton, Heany
and Everdlng, outrtvalled more than
20 o f the largest electrical concerns
In the country striving to get the
same patent. A ll of these concerns
had filed applications for a patent,
but from time to time Barton, tt is
charged, would see the specifications
and employ whatever he desired for
perfecting Heany’s Invention. T o be
