In this note, we consider the regularity of solutions of the nonlinear elliptic systems of$n$-Laplacian type involving measures, and prove that the gradients of the solutions are in the weak Lebesgue space$L$^{$n$,∞}. We also obtain the$a priori$global and local estimates for the$L$^{$n$,∞}-norm of the gradients of the solutions without using BMO-estimates. The proofs are based on a new lemma on the higher integrability of functions.
