REVIEW OF THE SESSION.

Mnch Important Legislation Attempted
hut Little Accomplished.
WASHINGTON, March ga review Of
the work of the last session Of the
Fifty-third congress must necessarily
deal more with what was attempted to
be done than that which was &C.
complished. The term has been par
ticularly marked by the inability of
the senate and the house to agree upon
any of the most important problems
presented by them.
The most interesting chapter of the
history of the session is made by the at
tempt at financial legislation in both
houses. These IN too well known to
require recapitulation. The principal
class Of legislation accomplished by the
short session was that making appropri.
atoms for the support of the govern.

Great Amount Of Capital Affected by .
Patent Decision.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The case of
the Bate Refrigerator company against
Francis Sulzberger & Co., upon which
the question Of American patents ex-
pire when foreign patents have been
previously issued, was decided in an ex-
haustive opinion by Justice Harlan. 1t
is estimated that not less than $500. OOO,-
600 Of capital hinges upon the decision
which determines the status of many
valuable patents.
The court held that the invention for
which Bate received a patent was previ-
ously patented in a foreign country and
that the United States patent did ex-
pire with the foreign patents. The de-
dision is against electric and other pat
ents involved in the decision of this
Suit.

south Dakota's Experience.
A bill similar to the one now pending
in North Dakota was passed by the
South Dakota legislature four years ago,
and its operations have been SO bad that
= measur for its repeal recently passed
the senate by unanimous vote, and
will probably go through the house.
This action is the result of the discov-
cry by the people of South Dakota that
the measure injured the people Of their
own state more than it did any one else.
