PIRACY IN TRADE MARKS.
Annoyance Caused to Reputabl
British Firms.

~1SSS~A
Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON. January 1s.-During the past
few months glaring cases Of the piracy OF
British trade marks and trade names
by unscrupulous traders in the Argentine
and Japan have come to the knowledge
OF the Birmingham Chamber of Com
merce, which reports that in some cases
blackmail is the object of the pirate, while
in others he is actuated by a desire to OBJ
tain sole rights in the sale of goods bear
pirated. In the former case the pirate
secures as a confederate lawyer of not
very high reputation. The trade mark or
name is registered. and the lawyer writes
20 the British trader informing him that
be to stop importation of goods bearing
the traders recognized mark or name.
The lawyer then suggests proceedings and
offers hts services. If the trader con-
sents and sends check on account of
fees with power of attorney, he may re-
ceive through the lawyer an offer from
the pirate to part with his rights" in the
trade mark on payment of a round sum,
which may vary rom a few hundred dol
lars to a number OF thousands.
In the second class of cases the pirate
has been found to be a man who desires
a sole agency. and who, on being refused,
the result that he can prevent all importa-
tions except by himself. The Birming-
ham Chamber of Commerce has COM
municated with the foreign Office on the
subject. American firms are probably
annoyed in the same way.

BOARD DOING BEST IT CAN

Let Congress give the Commissioner:
| enough money to enforce the law or re
peal the law said Commissioner Wes
| this morning when discussing the meager
| ness of the appropriation for cleaning
| cross walks and cutters of snow and ice
Prior to yesterday the snow and ice funt
had dwindled to about $500, and tn;
work which has been done in the las
two days will cut a big slice out OF
the remainder.
law passed several years ago specified
that ''it shall be the duty of the Commits
sioners'' to clean the cutters and street
crossings of snow, yet the funds appro'
priated for this purpose are low even this
early in the winter. The Commissioners
in their annual estimates, asked $1O,OO(
for this work.
Four new snowplows were put into
service by the STRENGTHENING depart
ment yesterday. making eight in all now
available for cleaning the cutters. II
is estimated that the new. plOws saved the
work of 200 men, and great progress was
made with this equipment.
Three hundred men are at work in diff
ferent sections of the city today making
the streets passable for pedestrians
About 200 men were at work yesterday
anu dS lHe SNOW was SOft tney accom-
plished much.
Makes Vigorous Protest.
In fact, it is the remark of every one
that the streets of the city generally are
more filthy now than ever observed be.
FORE says Charles c. Cuppett of 1oO7
New Jersey avenue northwest in a lette,
to the Commissioners. He addressed the
District heads to complain of the condi-
ton of streets at the intersection of New
Jersey and New York avenues.
Calling attention to recent article in
The Star In which Commissioner West is
quoted as saying that 'if foot of dirt
fell from the sky onto the street l could
put thousand men to work at once &c
clean it off. but if foot of snow tails
must let it remain" the writer says:
Now there is not only a foot of dirt
but tons and tons of filth and muck the
accumulation of over two months in the
vicinity of New Jersey and New York
avenues and NJ street northwest, and We
do not ask for one thousand men, but
would be thankful for even ten men to re-
move this filth from the public streets
which Is really menace to health. The
railroad people have had our streets prac-
tically closed since about October ~ a,
the points above named, and it seems
only fair to us that your body should
take some immediate steps to remedy
matters. If the railroad people won't
hurry and close up their work in this
vicinity, then the Commissioners ought
to have the mud and filth removed: also
Kirby street, which is one square east oi
New Jersey avenue, to 7th street is filthy
and looks like a poorly kept country
road
