N1trsimmon' Wonder How He Came to
Fight Jefrrios-Dressing- Room Scenes.
NEW YORK, June 12-The scenes
enacted in the dressing-room Of jeff
RES. which was only a few feet away
from that occupied by the defeated
pugilist. were of the most joyful char.
acser. Crowds of persons hammered
at the door for ad%mittance, all anx-
ious to congratulate the new cham
pion. William Brady was dancing
with delight from the moment the
decision was given hat made him for
the second time a manager of a
worlds heavyweight champion.
Billy Delaney, Jcffries' chief trainer,
was beside himself with delight. He
said: II have again brought a cham
pion bcatcr from California and am
naturally proud of it."
Jetfries himself was surrounded bv
a host of friends, who congratulated
him upon his well-won honor. In re-
sponse to several inquiries the new
champion said:
"Fitzsinmons fought a good and
game battle and hit me harder than
any man whom l have been up against.
He can whip Sharkey in two rounds.
| would gain nothing by meeting
Sharkey again, but am willing to meet
any man in the world in whom the
public has confidence, and there need
be no fear of my quitting the ring for
the stage. I will defend my title as
champion at all time and against all
corners. At no time during to-night's
fight did l feel any misgivings as to
my ability to win. l am satisfied that
Ihave we'll earned the right to be
called champion by beating Fitzsim-
mons, who was undoubtedly the great
est fighter of the age"
Jetfries and his party left for New
York at midnight and will make the
Vanderbilt hotel their headquarters
Just as Don as Fitzsimmons
reached his dressing room his wife,
who was a~nxiously awaiting the out
come of the fight, greeted the fallen
chambion aff.ctionately.
keep up your spirits, Bob" she
said. You fought %splcndidly, and
although you We're beaten, you are
still the prince of fighters"
Martin Julian, Fitzsimmons' man
ager. spoke encouragingly to the de-
fcatcd pugilist, but the latter seemed
lot to realize what was being said to
him.. His trainers and sparring part
ners laid the lanky pugilist on q cot
and whispered words of encourage
mcnt in his car. Fitzsi,nmons had
only partially recovered from the
shock Of defeat and occasionally muir.
INJURED: How did l come to fight
him?"

IN FAVOR OF THE cENTAUR co.
Judge Adams Granted an Injunctiop
In the Cast0ria Case.

In the United States Circuit Court
Tuesday afternoon Judge Adams hand
ed down an opinion in the suit of the
Centaur Company, of New York City,
against Samuel w. Eslinger, Of ST.
Louis, the suit being for an injunction
to restrain the defendant from using
the plaintiffs remedy, "Castoria."
1t was stated in compliments bill
that the Centaur Company, of which
Charles II. Fletcher is president, is the
sole manufacturer of "Castoria," and
alleged that the defendant had been
selling medicine in packages closely re-
sembling those of the New York firm.
A preliminary injunction was prayed
for to restrain the defendants from in
any way pirating upon the complain
ants business. The bill averred that the
damages sustained were large, but
could not be estimated. The plea of the
defendant was that he had right to do
as he had done.
Evidence in the case was taken by at
fdavits. Judge Adams, without leav-
ing the bench, delivered an opinion in
which he denounced imitators of we'll
known medicines. He said the practice
was species of robbery and he would
grant the injunction sought.
The medicine "Castoria" was at first
protected by patent and later by label
and trade mark. The plaintiff claimed
that other decisions similar to the one
handed down yesterday have been Sc
cured in the Federal courts, cases being
innumerable in Chicago, Indianapolis,
District of Columbia. Texas and New
Jersey, in all of which the courts grant.
ed injunctions.
The attorneys in this suit were Sed-
don and Blair. of ST. Louis, and F. H.
Scott, of Chicago. for the complain.
ants and Michael Kineally for the de-
PENDANT. The preliminary injunction is
understood to settle the point Of law
involved, but the question of damages
will be adjudged when the case has it's
final hearing.
The bottles of the original "Castoria"
manufactured by the Centaur Company
bear the facsimile signature of the pres
ident, Charles II. Fletcher. on the label
while the bottles sold by the defendant
company bore on the label the words
pitchers Baby Castoria" 1t is said
that criminal proceedings will follow,
and that several arrests may be made.
