The AJ regularly published lists of British and American aero patents of interest. The dates given in the Journal are the dates of application.[1]

  1. Based a date correspondence with Neilson, 1910, Aeroplane Patents, and its stated rationale about a patent's term beginning with the date of application, that AJ's dates are application dates. (Confirmed by Patent GB-1895-10239 which has a full-text scan on espacenet; date given in AJ is the date of application.)
