ton left the track at Pickering station,

screams of the women, groans and
shrieks OF the wounded, all emanating
from the intense darkness was terrible
to listen to, and the horrors were multi

the flames were staid. A large number

several times, yet many escaped abso-

were taken to Whitby where medical

A Trade Mark Sustained.

A suit brought by the Charles A. Vogelor
company, of Baltimore, against PARROT &
Co., of London, for infringing their we'll.
known trade mark "St. Jacobs OIL" has Just
been decided in the court of appeals, London,
in the plaintiffs favor. The action was
originally heard in the high court of justice,
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 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 the case before the comptroller Of
trade marks months would elapse before a
decision could be obtained. and as their busi-
ness would be seriously injured by such
delay, a restraining order should be granted
at once The result of tho appeal was that
perpetual injunction was made with COSTS
and proceedings before the comptroller have
been abandoned by the defendants, and the
Baltimore house have thus achieved double
victory. BY the order of the court of appeal
ParEott & Co. and their agents are perpet-
ually restrained from using the term St.
Davids oil or any similar name, as well as
the words, "The Great German Remedy" or
any words or marks similar to those used by
the Vogeler company in connection with
their St. Jacobs oil. 1t was shown by the
evidence that tho plaintiffs had sold during
the past few years over 100000 bottles of
st. Jacobs oil. Gen. VIM. Henry Browne, of
Washington, was one Of their counsel in the

The 1yhitn EirnI,nnt Wnr.

The following editorial from TdggarfS
(Philadelphia) Sunday Times of May 4 will
doubtless satisfy Messrs. Barnum, Bailey &
Hutchinson, who were very justly indignant
at the sian derous erticle aud promptly noti-
fed the pr oprietor of the paper that he would
be held responsible for the same, unless a
suitable and satisfactory explanation was
made:
II is proper to state that the article published in
IdggaFs 7iHlts of April 10, headed "a Fraud Ex'
posed" IN which certain allegations were made
against Manager Barnum and his white elephant
was an advertisement and paid for as such. We
had no agency IN originating the statements con:
taIned in the article, and do not wish to be held
responsible for any Of them, This announcement
is made ON account of the fact that the article has
been republished and spread broadcast over the
country, and represented as having originated
with us, Its publication was an incident OF the
white elephant war between Nr. Barnum ami Mr.
FOrepaugh, and while we, as public journalists
published advertisements of both sides, crticising
each other very sharply, we have no desire Il
take sides with either in the controversy, and
certainly would do no injustice TO either one If we
