THE HosTETTER co. WINS ANOTHER
CASE.
heterogeneous on Their Bitters MOI
federated by United States Court.

Tolerated by United States Court
The United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District of New York, Judge
Townsend presiding, handed down an opln-
ion December 23d, 1897, granting injunction
and accounting, in the suit OF The Hostetter
COMPANY against Isaac Sommers and Louis
Joseph. for infringement of its Trade Mark
The iurist states, in bold and clear language,
the rights accruing to the Hostetter Com
many. and the liability incurred by all who
would rob them, by fraud or misrepresenta,,
tion of the well-earned reputation and
nroGts of a business built up by the efforts
of half a century, The judge says, IN part:
1.-The complainant is entitled TO protec-
ton against the appropriation OF ITS trade
mark, by any and all unfair and dlshonor-
able means, and court of equity has pow
er to grant such protection whenever IL Is
satisfied that an attempt has been made by
ingenious subterfuges, to invade the TIgnts
of an owner of a trade mark. In
the sharp contest between the individual
manufacturer, who strives to acquire ana
retain the fruits of industry and hon
estv. and the field of keen rivals, seeking
to wrest from him the prize OF the publle
goodwill, the inventive ingenuity OF the
infringer has conceived a great variety OF
devices for evading the established rules OF
fair dealing Courts of equity ind
ing that their ultimate object and effect
were to enable and induce the retail seller OF
a fraudulent imitation to palm 1T on on an
unsuspecting public for the genuine article,
and thus to contribute to the infringement
upon the rights of the original owner, have
not hesitated to apply the remedy"
