Universal. Exhibition, 1873, in Vienna.

No. 1299.

OFFICIAL CORRESPONDENCE RELATING TO CERTI­FICATES OF PROTECTION.

Sir, 42, Praterstrasse, Vienna, 20th March 1873.

I have the honour to hand you hereivith a translated copy of a communica­tion, dated March 9th, 1873, No. 7234, which I have received from His Excellency the Imperial and Royal Minister of Commerce, referring to the certificates of protection for Exhibitors at the Universal Exhibition of 1873, in Vienna, and beg you will communicate the contents thereof to the Exhibitors of your country.

I beg leave to take this opportunity to ask your kindness in another question arising from the fact that Foreign Exhibitors are but too frequently quite ignorant of the laws of Austria.

In fact, it has become almost a rule with applications for Protection Certificates from abroad, to neglect not only the requirements of the law, namely, that applica­tions should be made, either by the applicant personally or by his agent duly authorised, but to omit also other essential requirements. The applications are, as a rule, not provided with the tivo separate covers required by law to contain the two copies of specifications, drawings, trade marks, models* &c. ; the signature by the applicant of the specification is often wanting; sometimes the object to be protected is not indicated, and even the kind of protection wished for, whether it be a patent, trade mark, or model protection, is occasionally omitted.

You will therefore much oblige me Sir, and promote the interest of the cause if you will, on receiving applications for Protection Certificates, call the attention of applicants to the provisions of the law and point out to them the defects, if any, of their applications and kindly send them afterwards to me to be dealt with according to law and without transgressing its formal provisions.

I remain, Sir,

Philip Cunliffe Owen, Esq., Your most obedient servant,

Secretary, Royal British Commission (Signed) Schwarz-Seneoen. for the Vienna Universal Exhibition.

[Translation.^

Sir,

In reply to your letter of the 26th ultimo, No. 1299, 1 do not hesitate to give to your Excellency the authorisation to receive such applications for “ Certificates of Protection” as will be sent to you through Foreign Exhibition Commissions, and to deal with them according to 'law, provided they be drawn up and instructed in strict accordance with the provisions contained in Art I. of the law of the 13th November 1872, and the special regulations issued on the 15th November 1872. It is understood that the actual date on which the applications reach your Excellency will be the only rule to decide whether they are presented in due time.

I have the honour to remain, &c., &c.,

The Imperial and Royal Minister of Commerce, To His Excellency (Signed) Banhatsts.

Baron William de Sehwarz-Senborn,

Chief Manager of the Vienna Universal Exhibition.
