BALFoUR ON THE CONFERENCE
Does Not Believe an Agreement Can BE
Reached at This Time.

London, Sept. 7.-Rt. Hon. A. J. Bal
four, first lord of the treasury, writes
under date of September 4 as follows:
with reference to recent declara-
tons in the house of commons 1 do not
know why the persons interested
should be perplexed over my supposed
change of attitude on the question of
international bimetallism, for no such
change has occurred. l am and always
have been in favor of an international
agreement, but have no right to pledge
my colleagues, and | do not believe an
international agreement would result
from any international conference. 1t
is only as regards the statement that
| had no grounds for thinking the con
ference would result in an internatlOn-
al agreement at the present moment,
and that an abortiVc conference would
do more harm than good, that any dill
ference of opinion may possibly be
found among bimetallists. In my judg-
ment, however, there is but little pros
pect of the conference succeeding, I'M
less the governments who are to be rep
resented at it come to some under
standing on the main points at issue
before the conference assemblies. No
such understanding, unfortunately, at
present exists, and until it does exist
the conference will PROBABLY do more
harm than good

WHEN PATENTS EXPIRE.
An Important Decision Of the Supreme
Court That Affects Capital Estimated at
Six Hundred Million Dollars.


Washington. March 4.-The supreme
court of the United States today decid-
ed that an American patent for an in
vention expires at the same time as a
patent issued in foreign country for
the same invention. The opinion was
read by Justice Harlan in the case of
the Bate Refrigerating company VS..
Ferdinand Sulzberger ct al; which came
to the supreme court of the United
States on a certification from the court
of appeals for the second circuit for
answer to a question of law. The case
awakened the greatest interest among
persons and corporations controlling
patents that would be affected by the
decision of the supreme court of the
United States.
The amount of capital interested all
told is estimated at as high a sum
as $500, 600, 600. The most eminent patent
attorneys in the United States appeared
and argued the point involved before
the supreme court of the United States,
the case occupying two or three days.
The decision has been long looked for,
and the court room was crowded today
with attorneys and others Interested.
The opinion-a long one-was read by
Justice Harlan. 1t reviewed all the leg
islation on the subject, discussed the
meaning of congress, as expressed in
section 4SS7, revised statutes, and con-
cluded as follows:
"Our answers to the questions con-
tained are that the invention for which
United States patent to Bate was Is
sued was under the facts stated, pre-
viously patented in foreign country
within the meaning of those words in
section 1887 of the revised statutes, and
that the United States patent to him
expired, under the terms of that section,
before the expiration of seventeen
veare from its date

men After All.
Pv tho Tinted Press

State College, Pa. March 4.-The
State College professors now claim that
the alleged oleomargarlne which was
awarded first prize at recent dairy
exposition was pure butter. Editor
Palm, of Meadville. is friend of oleo
and secured a package from Chicago.
He entered this as butter at the dairy
fair, and the learned agriculturists pro-
nounced it the best butter exhibited and
gave it the prize. Then Editor Palm
laughed long and heartily and exposed
the joke in his newspaper. He claimed
to have proved that oleo is as good and
pure as butter, though made different
ly.
Now comes the joke on Editor Palm.
Professor Waters secured the alleged
oleo exhibit made by Editor Palm and
has analyzed it. He publishes the re-
suit, and declares that 1t was not oleo,
but the purest butter. Professor Waters
says the Chicago oleo dealers, knowing
Editor Palm was to exhibit the article,
sent him butter instead OF oleo.
