DAILY, of New York, has just rendered de-
cision in reference to false trade marks, which
is extremely important. Gustavus A. Scheidl,
as agent, brought ar action acainst Ellis,

amount, 81, l69 67 was ofthe fct tious brand
and the jury, after deduciing that amount,
gave a verlict for plaintiff of the balance,

not vouchod for by ndubitable testimony, in
numerous instances producing reiurns of the
