Notice of Acceptance of Complete Specifications.

Patent Office,
Wellington, 30th August, 1899.

COMPLETE specifications relating to the under-mentioned applications for Letters Patent have been accepted, and are open to public inspection at this office. Any person may, at any time within two months from the date of this Gazette, give me notice in writing of opposition to the grant of any such patent. Such notice must set forth the particular grounds of objection, and be in duplicate. A fee of 10s. is payable thereon.

No. 11043.—10th October, 1898.—WILLIAM JONES, of 170, Buckley Street, Footscray, Victoria, Blacksmith. Improvements in cartridge-wads, and the process of manufacturing the same.*

Claims.—(1.) The cartridge-wad consisting of the combination of a compressible material in layers of different densities situated between an inner and an outer protecting end-piece, all as and for the purposes described, and as illustrated in the drawings. (2.) Improvements in cartridge-wads, and the process of manufacturing the same, consisting of forming a blank of compressible agglutinised material in layers of different densities, and situated between paper, straw, or other boards, from which blank are punched or otherwise removed circular wads, which are then by pressure consolidated and reduced in thickness, and finally treated with an oleaginous preservative, all as and for the purposes described, and as illustrated in the drawings. (3.) Improvements in cartridge-wads, and the method of manufacturing the same, consisting of making a blank formed of various materials in layers of different densities, protected on each face by paper, straw, or other protecting boards, from which blank is removed circular wads prior to their longitudinal compression, and treatment with an oleaginous preservative. (Specification, 3s. 3d.; drawings, 3s.)

No. 11078.—19th October, 1898.—WILLIAM JAUMARD LE CREN, formerly of Miller’s Flat, Otago, New Zealand, now of Christchurch, New Zealand, Engineer; and JOHN TYSON, of Rongahere, Otago aforesaid, Sawmiller. An improved dredge-bucket link.*

“The link consists of a plate of steel or iron or other suitable material connecting the two buckets together. The edges of the plate at the sides are raised, so that the link acts as a chute for the drippings from the buckets. The link is fastened to the buckets by means of pins which pass through the buckets and the ends of the link, and are stationary in the bucket but are reversible when worn in the link, by means of a square head let into the outside link on bucket, with a washer and pin at the other end. The holes at the ends of the link through which the pins pass should be lined with manganese-steel liners. The invention takes the place of the four links at present in use, and saves the bushing of the buckets. Where the top tumbler has a steel plate on, a plate is necessary on the bottom of the link, in order to clear all heads of bolts.”

Claim.—The use of a link substantially as described, to connect dredge-buckets.
(Specification, 1s.; drawings, 6s.)

Claim.—A mouldboard for attachment to a plough, made of tines, stamped or cut out of a solid piece, or made in separate pieces, both shaped and curved to suit the run of the land in which the plough is to work, and gradually decreasing in length, substantially as described, and as illustrated by the drawing.
(Specification, 2s.; drawings, 3s.)
