    Appeal from the Commissioner of Patents.
    Interference proceeding between William Steubing, Jr., and Daniel E. Plennessy. From the decision of the Commissioner of Patents, awarding priority to Hennessy, Steubing appeals.
    Affirmed.
    John W. Strehli, of Cincinnati, Ohio, for appellant.
    IF Dorsey Spencer, of New York City, for appellee.
   SMYTH, Chief Justice.

Steubing appeals from a decision of the Commissioner of Patents finding that I-Iennessy is entitled to priority with respect to an invention relating to lifting trucks of a certain type. There are 16 claims involved. The decision of the three tribunals of the Patent Office are concurrent. We cannot say that they are manifestly wrong, and hence, following a well-established rule of decision in this court (In re Barratt, 11 App. D. C. 177; Creveling v. Jepson, 47 App. D. C. 597; Reid et al. v. Kitselman [D. C.] 266 Fed. 255; and Lindmark v. Hodgkinson, 31 App. D. C. 612), we affirm the Commissioner’s decision.

Affirmed.
