AMERICAN VICTORY
L. s. P4TENTS UPHELD
German Supreme Court
ThrO1cs ont Local Contention.

Leipsic, Nov. 26.-The Imperial Su-
preme Court today rendered decision
in a patent case. in which it interpreted
the patent agreement between Germany
and the United States in favor Of an
American company which has branch
Office in Berlin.
This branch office obtained letters Of
patent under the German law on an in
yention. but it failed TO place the in
vention on the market within three
years. the time specified by the German
statute for so doing. Thereupon Ger
man brought suit 10 vacate the patent
rights and the Patent Office decided In
his favor. The American firm, however,
took an appeal To the Imperial Supreme
Court. and while awaiting a decision
transferred the patent rights to its par
ent company in the United States.
The decision OF the court to-day held
that the Patent Office had wronGfully
revoked the letters Of patent and must
renew them, as the German-American
agreement guaranteed reciprocal treat
ment of patents.
