Injustice Done in Report
Of Recent Decision.
4 Misapp|Ication Of Word
"Uno" in 0'ConneN Case.
Product Of Suffolk Brewing Co. is Not
Under the Ban.

Lewiston. Me-, July 3i-F. J. Ia
Company of Boston has been in Lewis
ton to protect his companys interests
from loss and damage through mis-
conception Of the facts touched upon by
the recently Published opinion Of Jus
ticc Powers III the Michael O'Connell Ii
quor case.
The trouble has arisen from the un-
warranted application Of the name
"Tno' beer to other bt erS under three
per cent.
JEo beer is a special beer made by
the Suffolk Brewing Co. in Boston es-
pecially designed to come within every
requirement of the laws of the State Of
Maine against the Illegal sale of intoX-
icating liquor and since its first manu-
facturc III 1889 has been constantly on
sale ana constantly under fire of the
executive officers Of the State enforcing
the prohibitory laws.
Two hundred and fOrty-one special
hearings and trials upon seizures Of the
Suffolk Brewing COmpany's Uno beer
have been held in this State according
10 MIR. Tabor's figures, and in every in
stance the courts have ordered the beer
to be returned TO the owners. The beer
has been aEaiyZed time and again to
determine whether or not it contained
any malt or was Il preparation from
malt, or whether it had three per cent
or more of alcohol in its composition
but in every instance it has been found
that the Suffolk Brewing Company's
Uno had neither any malt in its COM
position nor over two and thirty-five
hundrcdths TO two and sixty hundredths
Of alcohol
IN all these years the frequency with
which the name "Uno" appeared in
rubiic print has constituted it into
something like a general term applied
to all sorts of light beers, but this has
been done without warrant or license
for the term 'Uno," says Mr. Taylor, is
a copyrighted name belonging solely to
the Suffolk Brewing Company. When a
diluted lager beer happens to be seized
and somebody enormously calls it Cno
ana case goes to court the Suffolk
brewing Company would naturally be
damaged by the publicity wrongly given
10 the word Tno. Uno Is the property
Of the Suffolk Brewing Company and
the beer which properly bears this
nam" is wholly within the law.

CONDITIONS SHOULD GOVERN.
IntsrnAtiOaal Railway Congress FavoFs
Elastic Freight Rates But Opposes
ArbltEaFy Discriminnt lOn.

Washington, May 1.-THE conclu-
sions adopted by the international
railway congress which closed Its
seventh session here Saturday were
oflcially announced Sunday. The most
interesting Of the conclusions related
to railway rates on which, after a
prolonged discussion In which every
country in which railways are oper-
ated, was represented, the congress
unanimously expressed Its conclusions
as follows:
Tariffs should be based on CONNER
cial principals, taking into account the
special conditions which bear upon the
commercial value Of the services rem
dered. With the reservation that
rates shall be charged without arbi-
trary discrimination TO all shippers
alike under like conditions, the max
ing Of rates. should as far as possible
have all the elasticity necessary to
permit the development Of the traflc
and TO produce the greatest results
to the public and to the railroads
themselves"
These conclusions were ratified at
the close Of the session after President
Roosevelt's speeches had been topic
OF discussion and two days after Sec
Rotary Taft's address on freight rates
at the banquet Of the congress-
