A most im portunt discovery h is been iui I j lure that the control of barbed wire patents is not vested in any American firm or cor poration, because the device of the barb ed wire was patented in France by Louis Janen on April 19, 1805. The law of this country, as declared by the United States supreme court, is that "a foreign patent for the same thin or a description of a thing in a foreign publication is as effectual to void a patent ns if the patentee had seen the prior invention, notice to him not being important." If this decision holds, and there is no ap peal from it, the claims ot certain persons for royalty under the Glidden and other barbed wire patents are void, and all money payed to them by barb wire man ufacturers who had interest in the Glid den patents, is believed to be subject to recovery.
