that they have now, and have
had at all times, a right to make
and sell Genuine Jaeger y

Judge Ciidersleeve

says: 1t is the privilege of
the defendant (Le Boutillier
Brothers), unmolested by plain
tiff Or. Jaeger's S. w. S. Co..
or by any person, to manufac-
ture and vend underwear of the
same qualities and character
istics as that produced by plain
tiff.
Neither the plaintiff nor its
assignors acquired any trade
name rights from DR.. Jaeger.
He never had any to grant.
"The Specification acquired
by the name Jaeger is such
that the name is as true in it's
application to the all-wool goods
made upon the Jaeger system
sold by defendant lie Boutillier
Brothers. rs to the goods sold
by the plaintiff.
"From an inspection of the
large numbers of exhibits of I'M
derwear put in evidence by the
plaintiff and the defendant, and
after carefully considering the
evidence of experts as to quail
lily, l am of the opinion that
there is no substantial differ
ence in the quality of material
or in the skill of the manufac-
ture of the respective exhibits Of
said underwear, when the COM
parison is confined to the gar
ments that are all wool"
Judge Gildersleeve is of opin-
ion that underwear containing

In this trial witnesses testi-
fed that the DR.. Jaeger's S. w.
