s1prome Court Decides Important Patent
Case Against Big Companies.
WASHINGTON. March 6.-The ease OF
the Bate Refrigerator company against
Francis Sulzberger a Co, upon which
depends the question of when Ameri-
can patents expire when foreign pat
ents have been previously issued, was
decided by the United States supreme
court Monday in an exhaustive opinion
by Justice Harlan IL is estimated
that not less than 5000. 100000 of capi-
tai hinges upon the decision, which de-
termines the status OF many valuable
patents. The court held that the in
vention for which Bate received
patent was previously patented in
foreign country, and that the United
States patent did expire with the for
eign patents. The decision is against
the electric and other patents involved
IN the decision OF this suit.
Substantially the decision will affect
In the same way the quadruplex tele-
graph patents which were applied for
in October, 1874, and issued December
IS, 1878. The incandescent lamp patents
filed by the General Electric Light
company are also included in those
which will be affected by the decision.
There was no dissenting opinion.
