THE PATENT OFFICE REPORT.
Nearly Fifty Thousand Applications
Made In 1907.

Washington, March I6.--The annual re-
port of the commissioner of patents for
the fiscal year 1897 has been laid before
congress. In 1897 there were received 45,-
65l applications for patents, and in addi-
ton a number of applications for designs,
trade marks, etc.
Patents granted appointed in number
to 1920, including designs; 50 patents
were reissued, 1871 trade marks register
ed. and II labels and 10 prints The num-
Der of patents that expired was 1926
The total expenditures were Sll22843;
the receipts over expenditures. 1882. 1913
The total balance of the credit of the pat
ent office in the treasury of the United
States on January l, 1898, was $497l ,439
The report also urges the necessity for
the establishment of n patent bar as
measure of protection to the inventor
"Under the over-liberal rule of practice,
by which any person of intelligence and
good moral character may appear as the
agent or attorney in fact of an applicant,
not a few such attorneys have in the past
been permitted before the office, with the
result that badly prepared and unskill-
fully and carelessly prosecuted patents
were issued which were worthless, in that
they failed to adequately protect inven,
tons which, properly claimed, might have
been worth thousands of dollars
An earnest attempt was made during
the wear to current abuses which have
arisen in consequence of of this liberality
of practice, and several attorneys whose
operations, the report says, SAVIOR of con
fdence games by which the unwary and

Something of the Talks and the Acts
Of Both Branches.

In the senate Monday Senator Alien in
Quired of Senator Chandler what the naval
affairs committee had done regarding the
investigation of the Maine catastrophe.
Senator Chandler said as vet the COM
mittee had taken no action regarding the
investigation. He could not speak for the
committee, but expressed the opinion that
its policy would be to await the action
and findings of the court of inquiry. He
called attention to the interesting fact
that the naval committee have no author
ity under the law to compel witnesses to
testify or punish them if they should re-
fuse. He thought the naval committee
ought to be empowered to force testimony
from witnesses or infiict penalty for re-
fusal. The conference report on the army
appropriation bill was reported by Sena-
tor Quay and agreed to. IThe senate then
passed the following measure: Amend
ing the act to permit the use of right of
