It is noticeable that Bright, Goschen, Forster, and Dr, Lyon Playfalr voted in favor of Sir Wilfrid's resolution, Mr. CHAsmERLAIN stated yesterday in the House of Commons that the Government ap- proved the prinelple of the bill Introduced by Mr. Anderson, Radient member for Glus- gow, and which provides for a large reduce tion in fees for procuring patents, and an ex- tension of the time whieh thay are allowed to run, He approved of the American sys- tem of issuing patents, and sald that the Gov- ernment would be glad to introduce legisla- tion which would make the British system conforin as nearly as possible to the Ameri- can, Soveral members of Parilament who followed Mr. Chamburlnin spoke tn the high- ext terins of praise of the Amerlean patent system, and Sts effect In fostering inventions.
