THE GERMAN MARRIAGE ACT.
Certificate Required Which No
American Tribunal Issues.


The Secretary Of State recently sent a
note Of enquiry TO the District Commits
sioners relative to the issue of certificates
such as are required by German laws to
persons wishing to contract marriage in
that country.
The Secretary states that complications
will necessarily arise under the Imperial
marriage law which went into -sffect
throughout the German Empire on jan
uary !. 1900 in case citizens of the United
States contract marriages in that coun
try. Mr.. Hay informs the Commissioners
that paragraph of the act referred to
requires that every man desiring to be
married in. Germany shall present to the
standesbeamter, the special magistrate by
whom alone marriages can be solemnized
in Germany. a certificate by the proper
authorities of his native or home State
to the effect that the authorities know Of
no just cause why the marriage shall not
take place.
The Secretary, through information re-
ceived from Consul Mason of Berlin, says
this requirement applies to all persons
Of whatever nationality. and when as Of
ten happens, a male citizen Of the United
States desires to marry in Germany a
woman OF American or other nationality,
he is confronted by the difficulty that no
court or tribunal in the United States
maintains a personal supervision over
American citizens, as to their domestic
relations, or will give a certificate that
specified individual is single and that no
obstacle TO his marriage is known TO ex-
ist
The utmost that appears to be possible
In such a case says Consul Mason, is for
reputable citizens at his home in the
United States an affidavit executed before
judge or notary public and subsequently
certified by the German Ambassador or
Consul setting forth that the affiant has
known the applicant for a stated period
Of years, that he knows him to be IN
married, etc.
An enquiry relating to the issue Of such
certificates by the District of Columbia
was made by the Commissioners of the
Chief Justice OF the Supreme Court Of the
District Of Columbia. Justice Bingham
replied that the courts Of the District
have never issued such a certificate as is
required by the German marriage act
To do so would, in his opinion. be in ex-
cess Of authority and without legal justin
cation.
The Secretary Of State declared It to be
the intention Of his Department to make
an official representation to the German
Government on the subject, in order that
practical aid might be extended to citi-
zens Of this country in view Of the re-
Quirement OF the German code

AN INJUNCTION CONTINUED.
Judge Barnards Ruling in the Case
of. Leo OedeISoNen.

of Leo beethoven.
The injunction suit instituted by the
Heurich Brewing Company against Leo
Oedekoyen. a saloonkeeper. to restrain
the defendant from selling and disposing
of lager beer brewed by other brew
ing companies and representing it to lie
beer Of the brand brewed by the complain
ant. was heard before Judge Barnard in
Equity Court No. 2 yesterday. The de-
PENDANT in his answer denied that he had
misrepresented any Of his sales. The
complainant alleged that for one month
prior to the institution OF the suit the
defendant had not purchased any beer from
it. and that during said time he had been
engaged in selling beers brewed by other
brewing companies representing it to 5
customers to be beer brewed by the CON-
plainant-
The defendant claimed to have pur-
chased about a month prior to the insti-
tuition Of the suit several quarter kegs OF
beer. which he insisted he still had On
hand, and that from this he was serving
such customers as asked for complainant's
beer. He also filed affidavlts Of his bar
keeper denying disappearing any sale
Of beer. Judge Barnard, in dlsposing Of
the molten for an injunction, held that
the complainant had the right to protect
the reputation Of the beer brewed by It;
that from the account book presented by
the defendant it appears that he had been
making daily purchases from the complain
ant ups to about a month before the insti-
tuition of the suit, but had discontinued It
at that time. that il was improbable that
he should have kept two or three kegs.
which he claimed to have on hand. for a
whole month. and that if he was simply
using these kegs for cover to his action
he should be enjOined, and ordered the in
junction to be continued until the fiEal
hearing Of the case.
