Miami, Fla., March 30.-?Damage in the sum of $11,000,000 are sough of Henry Ford by Edward S. Hud Miami electrical engineer, in a sui initiated here today. Huff claims tha he originated the magneto now i use on motor cars manufactured b Ford and claims that Ford has nc paid him in full for the invention. Counsel for Huff this afternoon w ceived word from Fort Myers, thi state, that service in the suit ha been secured there on Mr. Ford a his winter home. Huff claims to hold the patents o the magneto nsed on all motor equij ment manufactured by the Ford Mc tor company of Detroit and assert that he had been paid only $10,00 in royalties on his patent. When th last royalty payment was made ther was attacked a voucher stating tha the check was payment in full fo the royalty, Huff said that attorney advised him that his cashing of th check would not jeopardize his in terest in the magneto patent. According to Huff's counsel, Huf was employed in the Ford plant ii 1908 as an electrician and it is as serted that Ford told him in the pre sence of Dr. W. E. Sanborn, of De troit, that he wished Huff to inven a magneto which could work on a fl; wheel, adding that such an inventioi would make Huff a rich man. Huff thereupon left Ford's em ploy, went to work on the inventioi and Anally perfected thp magnet now in use. He said he assigned hi patent to Ford on an agreement tha he was to receive fifty cents royalt on each of the first 20,000 machine manufactured. Royalty was paid fo the first 20,000 but these payment then ceased and Huff now claim royalty on the magnetoes placed o: the thousands of cars sinee. The roy alties estimates at $11,000,000 o more.
