Az we reported yesterday, general
M esting OF the Liverpool Cotton association
was held on Monday TO consider the COM
pulsory retirement" of Mr.. Morris Ranger.
The circumstances under which the mem
bers were called together, re- explained by
various speakers. were, says inc LIVER
rool Post, as follows: upon his failure,
Mr.. Ranger sent an intimation Of his SUE
pension TO the directors, suppoing, like
most other members, that this was tantG-
mount 10 resignation. The directors in re-
plv requested him TO send In his books aud
papers for examination. mr. Ranger re-
piled that these were in the hands OF his
creditors, where thay could be Inspected.
He in this letter definitely rendered bis
rssigniti0n. By refusing TO no ept this the
directors created great deal OF surprise.
Their explanation yesterday was that the
failure Of q member does not carry with II
mis- resignation, nut only ms suapeusion
from membership and In proof OF this they
directed attention to the rules, which con-
tain no provision for resignation. They
considered that the case OF Mr.. Ranger
called Tor special treatment and hence the
meeting. The general tone OF the speakers
was 10 the effect that IL was necessary to
make an example Of some one, and that
Mr.. Ranger was the most conspicuous
some one available for the purpose OF
neinting a moral. Much solicitude was
manifested for the credit of the CT =, Tor the
prcprisiivs OF business in general, and cot
ton trading in particular. A division was
taken, and resolution e1pelling Mr.. Kan.
ger was carried by large majority. IL
was not mentioned at the meeting that
three brokers who failed Immediately after
Mr.. Ranger, after enduring suspension for
few days, were restored TO full member
shin in the association by the directors.
Nor was attention called 10 the fact that
when two brokers recently committed tel.
onies (for which one is at present In goal)
the directors took the responsibility OF PR
yalely removing their names from the as
ISOLATION without calling any meeting or
proposing any resolution OF expulsion" -

A STIRRING TRIUMPH !
(From the New York "World.

London, England Especial by Ca
ble).-In the snit of The Charles A.
Vogeler Co., of Baltimore, Maryland,
U. S. A, against Parrot & Co., of
this city, the Court Of Appeal has
granted the plaintiffs perpetual in
junction with costs. The action,
which grew out of an alleged in
fringemcnt of plaintiffs well known
trade mark, st. jacobs Oil, was orig
inally heard in the High Court Of
Justice, where Vice-Chancelor Bacon,
without going into the merits Of the
case, considered it was one that
should 90 before the Comptroller of
Trade Marks. From this opinion
The Charles a. Vogeler Company
appealed, claiming that they were be-
ing injured By the goods of the de-
PENDANT, entitled st. Davids OIL, be-
ing mistaken for theirs, and that
while they had taken steps to bring
case before the Comptroller Of
Trade Marks, months would elapse
before a decision could be obtained,
an as their business would be seri-
ously injured by such delay, a res
training 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 abandon
ed by the defendants, and the Balti,
more house has thus achieved a dou-
BILE victory. BY the order of the
Court of appeal, PARROT & Co., and
their agents, are perpetualiy restrain
ed from using the term est. Davids
OIL OF any similar term, as well as
the words, "The Great German Rem
edy, and any words or marks similar
to those used by The Charles A Vo-
geler Company in connection with
their St. jacobs Oil. The progress
of this suit has baen watched with
interest by the mercantile and manu-
featuring community of Britain, where
thousands of trademarks of almost
lncalculaDle value are owned. 1t
was shown by the evidence that plain
titfs had sold during the past few
years, over seven million bottles of
st. jacobs Oil, aud expended as high
as five hundred thousand dollars i'll a
single year for ADVERTISING through
out the world. Their success in this
suit is regarded with great satisfac-
ton in business circles. Eminent
English and American legal talent
figured in the case. The counsel for

ter was personally present, were

1t Was Sent to Her House.

A certain pretentious shopper,
after teasing the clerks of a dry goods
store beyond the forbearance limit,
pompously ordered spool of thread
to be sent to her house. 1t was
agreed that she should be made an
example Of, and warning to her
kind. She was surprised, and her
neighbors were intensely interested
shortly after she arrived at home. A
common dray drawn by four horses
proceeded slowly up to her door.
On the dray with bare arms were a
number of stalwarts laborers. They
were holding on vigorously TO some
object which she could not yet see.
1t was a most pulling affair. The
neighbors stared. After a deal of
whip-cracking, and other impressive
ceremonies, the cart was backed
against the curb. There, resposing
calmly, end up in the center of the
cart floor, was the identical spool Of
thread which she had "ordered.' 1t
seemed to be coming all right With
the aid of plank it was finally roll
ed, barrel fashion, safely to the side
walk. After a mortal struggle it was
"up-ended" on the purchasers door
step. The fact chat the purchaser
came out q minute later and kicked
her own property in the gutter de-
tracted nothing from it.-AIbany Ar
