RIGHTS OF PURCHASERS OF PAT
ENTED ARTIcLEs.-Those who are in
possession of an exclusive State, county
or other territorial right to make, sell
and use patented machine or patented
article, of any description whatsoever,
will be interested in learning that it is
. now settled, by the decision of more
than one United States circuit court
Judge, that the purchaser of such ma
chine or article within the territory of
one exclusive licensee may sell or use it
e within the territory of any other exclu-
sive licensee without liability to an &C
action for infringement. 1t amounts in
nut shell to this The exclusive
licensee for one county cannot lawfully
sell or use in the county of another ex-
elusive icensee, but the purchaser
without condition of the machine or ar
ticle from such licensee, can lawfully
% use or sell it in the territory of the other
licensee. s*t
With the present construction of the
statute, exclusive licensees may take I'M
due advantage of each other. 1t would
be wise, therefore, in many cases, to
a seek, through the grantors of territorial
rights, the placing of restrictions on
3 those working adjoining territory, so
that neither licensee would sell to par

purchase was to resell or use the terri

BOSTON WOOL MARKET.

The sales for the week have deem
1000, 900 Tbs of California and domestic
and 425 900 lbs of fore'gn nearly all Of
which was in bond for export to Canada.
The occurrence of a holiday has some
what checke ed trade, although the trana-
actions Of the week show that man
ufacturers are not altogether spectators off
the market. California wool has been in
active IT quest, and prices on the best
northern staple are shade frmer, and at
present rates are as cheap as any wool
that is likely to be offered in this market.
The sales of Domestic fleece have been
small, and upwards of 100000 lbs of this
have been Kentucky combing, which has
ranged In price from 43@45c. Small
sales Of old fleet wool have been made at
50@5715c for Ohio aud Pennsylvania
x Xxx and plcklock, but the assortments
are meagre. But little of the new clip
has reached the seaboard, and with a
supply of choice California fleece there is
no disposition to seek the country for the
new clip; in fact, it will be much better
for farmers, manufacturers and dealers fer
the clip to reach the market naturally
rather than to be found here when
stringency in the money market may
lead to forced sales and inc vitable losses
New Ohio and Pennsylvania wool would
command SOC, and choice Vermont
perhaps little more, while Wisconsin
and Michigan would sell at 45@46c.-
