Important Decision Affecting Trade.
Marks.

In the suit Of The Charles A. Vog-
eler Company, of Baltimore, Maryland,
U. s. A, against Parrot & Co., of
London, England, the Court of APP
peals has granted the plaintiffs a per-
petual injunction, with costs. The ac-
ton, which grew out of an alleged in
fringement Of plaintiffs well-known
trademark, st. Jacobs Oil, was orig
inally heard in the High Court Of JUS
tice, where Vice Chancellor Bacon,
without going into the merits of the
case, considered it was one that should
go before the Comptroller of Trade
Marks. From this opinion The
Charles A. Vogeler Company appealed,
claiming that they were being injured
by the goods of the defendants, entitled
st. Davids Oil, being mistaken for
theirs, and that while they had taken
steps to bring a case before the Comp
troller of Trade-Marks, months would
elapse before a decision could be OBJ
tanned, and, as their business would
be seriously injured by such delay, a
restraining order should be granted at
once. The result of the appeal was
that a perpetual injunction was made,
with costs. The proceedings before
the Comptroller have been abandoned
by the defendants, and the Baltimore
house has thus achieved a double vic
tory. by the order of the Court Of
Appeal, Parrot & Co, and their agents
are perpetually restrained from using
the term "St. Davids OIL" or any SINH
lar term. as well as the words 1.-THE
Great German Remedy, and any words
or marks similar to those used by The
Charles A.. Vogeler Company in on
nection with their st. Jacobs Oil. The
progress of this suit has been watched
with interest by the mercantile and
manufacturing community of Great
Britain, where thousands of trade
marks of almost i~ncalculable value are
owned. 1t was shown by the evidence
that plaintiffs had sold during the past
few years over seven million bottles of
st. Jacobs Oil, and had expended as
high as five hundred thousand dollars
in a single year for advertising through
out the world. Their success in this
suit is regarded with great satisfaction
in business circles. Eminent English
and American legal talent figured in
the case. The counsel for The Charles
A. Vogeler Company, of which latter

present, were Queens Counsel Theo-
dore Aston, assisted by John Cutler
