ACTIOI. AGAINST A LONDON
NEWSPAPER.

The case of • (Palter v. Pickburn" was again before Vice-
Chancellor Stuart on Thursday. It was a motion for an
injunction, made on behalf of the proprietors of the Times
newspaper, to restrain the defendant, the proprietor of a
paper called The Clerkenwell News and London Times from
using the words and London Times as a part of the title of
his newspaper.

It was stated for the plaintiff that the defendant ori-
ginally published his paper with the title Clerkenwell News
simply, but in 1866 the words and London Times were added
in small type. In October last these words were printed
in large type, and became a very prominent part of the
title, the words Clerkenwell News being in smaller
letters, and, in fact, entirely dwarfed by the
large words London Times. The plaintiff alleged that
the defendant by the assumption of this title attempted to
pass of his paper in the colonies and in America as the
plaintiff's paper. The two papers were not alike in
appearance, and no one, looking at them together,
would mistake one for the other. Evidence
from officials at the Post-office was to the effect
that confusion had been caused in the delivery of letters
by the similarity of the letters and the two rapers; and
that it had been necessary to order that all letters addroned
"London Time., Fleet-street," should be sent to the defen-
dant, because be had a branch office in Fleet-street. Other
evidenee went to chew that mistakes had arisen in the
insertion of advertisements and the sale of papers by news-
agents. Since this motion was pending, the defendant had
sent round to various newsagents for the London Times and
in every instance had received his own paper.

The defendant; in his affidavit, said he had never
intended to pass off his paper as the plaintiff's, and did
not know that the plaintiff's paper was ever called the
London Times. His paper had no circulation abroad or in
the country, and was intended as an advertising medium
for persons in humble life.
Mr. Dickenson, addressing the court for the defendant,
said this was the first time an application had been made
to the court to restrain a person from using a name which
he had used for several years. The defendant had used
this title for four years, and although the proprietors of
the Times had thought it worth while to proceed against a
halfpenny paper, and had ransacked the country and the
colonies for evidence, they had been unable to bring for-
ward any single instance in which inconvenience had
arisen.

The Vice-Chancellor : There is the Sunday Times and the
Law Times, and if you had taken any name which did
not apply to London particularly I should quite
understand your view. But this is like the case of the
Penny Bell's Life, in which it was held that it was at-
tempted to make the public believe that Bell's Life was to
be had fora penny. You put a prefix of which the plain-
tiff complains, because he says if you had taken a more
limited title—say the Clerkenwell Times, or the Watch-
makers' Times, or the Washerwoman's Times, it would have
been quite right. (Laughter.)
Before the conclusion of the arguments in reply, an
arrangement was come to between the parties, the defen-
dant agreeing to discontinue the words " and London
Tunes" from his title, each side paying its own costs.
