The decision 81 the Supreme Court In the Rate
case has confirmed long line Of similar Circuit
Court decisions the effect that foreign patent
granted prior 10 the gran; Of an American patent.
but subsequent 20 the application therefor. limits the
term II the American patent Such decision was not
unexpected. although the owners Of many American
patents believed that contrary construction should
have been placed upon the statute The only sub
stantlal interest which the General Electric Com
pany has in the question arises from the fact that
the fundamental Edison lamp patent which
granted in January. 1881. would. under different
decision have remained In force until January. 1897.
As II is that patent expired in November ls9i. the
date Of the expiration Of the Canadian patent for
the same invention. Certain weli-known decisions
OF Judges fInllc;t and Kicks In the West enabled
many competitors 30 make incandescent lamps
prior TO November. 1894. and the General Electric
Company has no reason 70 expect more troublesome
competition In the lamp business In the future than
IN the past. The inclndescent lamps now produced
by the company OF such high quality and are
manufactured on extensive scale amply
project this part Of its business, irrespective OF
patent considerations. The Bate decision has prac-
tica ~ no effect the position OF the company
10 anv other article Of its manufacture. The Gen
eral Electric Company has OF course. many patents
to lam ~ sockets. OF which have
already been sustained by the courts. These are
unite sufficient protect II In It's manufacture OF
the high grades Of lamps which 1t Is making.
