Berlin. July 26.-The text Of the meas

American schedules are mcnstruos, in
volving a great burden for Germany's 5
Industrial and commercial classes, to
gether with a serious injury to foreign
trade, tariff wars and hindrance TO com

Americans in business in Berlin regard
the trouble as exceedingly bad for Ger
many and the United States. pointing oUt
that thes sharp agitation during the last
few years against certain products has
borne fruit in the present bill. Besides
the agricultural schedules. the Americans
express keen disappointment at the
heavy increase in machinery. The pres

REED ON cAsToRIA.
The Vice Ch--~oiiar Sustains Chas.
Il. Fletcher.

New York, Juiy 27.-Vice-Chancellor
Reed, sitting in the court Of chancery at
Trenton. n J., has just rendered a de-
cision Of vital Importance in the case
of the Centaur company against a party
calling themselves the c. ". Link Drug
company 1t seems for the past year or
more. Mr.. Chas. II. Fletcher, president of
the Centaur company, the manufacturers
of Castoria, have been fighting through
the courts counterfeiters and imitators
Of their goods. All Of the fake goods are
put up in a manner to lead the purchaser
to think they are getting the same Cas-
toria they have always bought, and the
chancellor dwells at length on this point,
showing how easy IL would be to inform
the public of the difference between the
packages If II were not their object TO
mislead the consumer. He gays IN part:
Every one of the packages put in evi-
dence by the defendant show a persistent
adoption OF the size of the bottle and
the label of the complainant. All Of those
manufacturers knew just as the defend
ant knew that If the remedy was put up
in round bottles distinctively larger or
smaller or if the bottles were so different
" wrapped as TO at once arrest the at
tentior of the casral purchaser the sale
Of the remedy in such packages would at
once become substantially reduced"
Citing numerous cases in line with
this opinion he gave Mr. Chas. H
Fletcher the injunction asked for and the
c. W. Link Drug company must seek new

The day was an ideal one for an out

Der of our red brethren and their inter

the cooling shade trees OF the mission.
AS on all such occasions among the In
dams, the first prerequisite is beef, and
a large and tat specimen OF the bovine
race was driven into an enclosure and
despatched and in few minutes its hide
adorned the fence, while the Quivering
carcass was partitoned out in generous
chunks among the eager claimants,
and soon the savory incense from roasts
stews and fries assailed the olfsctories
and sharpened the appetites OF the wait
ing throngs. When the meat was ready
for serving. it was placed. together with
the various other adjuncts TO a substan-

with the secretary Of the interior with

business being concluded, the meeting
was adjourned to meet at the call or the
