TAKEN FROM THE JURY.
The Case OF Wilson VS.. the Johns Hopkins
University.

University.
Baltimore. May lit was decided by
Judge Morris in the United States circuit
court Saturday to take the case of james
Wilson. of Roanoke, Va, against the
Johns Hopkins University and Drs.
Bloodgood and Clark, from the jury. Mr..
Wilson was sueing for $4,000 on the
claim that the physicians had made a
mistake in an operation performed upon
him.
After hearing the argument of Fielder
G. Slinglnff, fol the plaintiff, and Bern
ard Carter, for the hospital, the court
held that mo Testimony had been pro-
duced to prove that either the trustees of
the hospital or the surgeons employed by
them could be held liable. There were
the experts who testified had shown.
The only question to he considered was
whether the one adopted was proper. and
testimony had been produced to show
that it was. The question, the court held,
was one for the professional Judgment of
those performing the operation, and not
for Il jury to decide.
Regarding the responsibility of the hos.
pital in the selection of physicians he said
that it had been shown that Dr. Blood
goods education had been thorough in
every respect, and his experience of sew
eral years in this class of work entitled
him to be classed as II competent surgeon
1t had been testified that he possessed
unusual aptitude in this direction AS
to DR.. Clark, he was an assistant, and
therefore took no.responsibility
Ever if the case had gone to the jury
and n verdict found, he would, he said,
have thought it his duty to set it aside

CAUTION.


We desire to call attention to the fact
that Hon. j. ]. Jackson, Judge of the
United States circuit court in and for the
district of West Virginia, granted an in
junction mt Charleston, West Virginia,
May 9th, 1897, in which he decided that
our firm has the right to use the word
"Pocahontas, " or ''Pocahontas Flat Top"
in connection with coal, the court being
of the opinion that we have not only the
right to use the word "Pocahontas'' for
the purpose of indicating that our coal
comes from the Pocahontas Field, but
also that we have the SOLE right to use
said word as indicating the character of
the coal we sell.
In view Of said decision the trade is
cautioned against infringing upon said
trademark, "Pocahontas, as name for
designating coal in the sale thereof, and
alt invasion or infringments ON our exclu-
sive rights will be dealt with according
to law.
