8 Stirring Triumph.


London, England Especial by cablc).-
In tie suit Of the Charles 4. VOgclcr Co.,
of Baltimore, Maryland, L. 5. A., against
Parrot 4 Co., Of this city, the Court Of
Appeal has granted the plaintiffs per-
pciual injunction with costs. The action,
which grew ont of III alleged infringe
mcnt Of plaintiffs wei! known trade mark,
81. Jacobs Oil, was originally heard in the
High Court of Justice, where NiCe-Chan-
rollCr Bacon, without going into the mcr-
its Of the case considered it was one that
should 20 before the Comptroller Of Trade
Marks. From this opinion Tie Chas. A.
N"gelcr Company appealed, claiming that
they were being injured by the goods of
the defendants, entitled ST. Dayids Oil,
being mistaken for theirs, ana that while
obey had taken steps to bring case before
the Comptroller OF Trade Marks, months
would ClapSc before decision could be
obtained, and as their business would be
seriously injured By such delay, 4 re-
stralning order should bc granted 1T once.
The result Of the appeal WAS that per-
pctual injunction WAS made with costs.
The proceedings before the Comptroller
have been abandoned by the defendants,
and the Baltimore house has thus achived
double victory. BY the order of the
SOH-- VI y IlCstI, dIIolG o. w., anu IiLS4L
agents, are perpetually restrained from
using The term est. Davids Oil" or any
similar term, az well az the words "rho
Great German Remedy" and any words
or marks similar to those used by the The
Charles 4. Yogcler Company in cOnnec-
ton with their 81. Jacobs Oil. The pro-
grcSs Of this suit has been watched with
interest by the mercantile and manufac-
turing community of Great Britain, where
thousands of trade marks of almost meal
culable value are owned. Ii was shown
By the evidence that plaintiffs had sold
during the past few years, over seven
million bottles of ST. jacobs Oil, and eX-
pended as high as five hundred thousand
dollars in single year for advertising
throughout the world. Their success in
this suit is regarded with great satisfac-
ton in business circles. Eminent Eng
fish and American legal talent figured in
case. The counsel for The Charles 4.
Nogeler Company, of which latter Mr.. III.
ID. UmbStaetter was personally present,
were Queens Counsel Theodore Aston,
assisted by John Cutler and Theodore Me-
Kenna of London, Rowland Cox OF New
York, and Gen. VIM. Henry Browne of
Washington, ID. &.
