CHARTREUX MONKS SUE
BELGIAN D|ST|[LERS
Seek to Stop Alleged Counter
feiting of Liqueur Made
by Them.
or~ign Correspondence of The Star.


BRUSSELS. May 20. 1911.
The famous Chartreux monks, expelled
from France. and now settled i'm Spain.
have just Initiated proceedings before
the Brussels commercial court against
q number of Belgian distillers producing
liqueur labeled '.Chartreuse." The monks
plea Is that such liqueur Is counterfeit
of their own. which should be prohibited
and punished by heavy damages.
The noted barrister and senator, Sam
Wiener, who is one of the counsel for
the Belgian defendants, is fighting the
Chartreux on most interesting legal
grounds. He contends that religious
associations. being without civil person
ifcation Qegal existence), are not en-
titled to legal action of any kind on any
plea whatsoever. The Chartreux monks
retort that. in such suit. they must
not be considered as a religious body,
but as a commercial firm. vested with
the powers of any ordinary traders.
This raises the whole question as to
whether the numerous religious congre-
cations expelled from France and settled
in Belgium. where many manufacture
articles Of trade. should not be made
TO pay trade licenses and other trade
taxes from which they are at present
exempt, and from which they derive
much benefit in their competition against
normal commerce.

HAMBURG. May 10, 1911
The senate of the city of Hamburg has
passed a resolution recommending that
the Colonial Institute, established there
some years ago to train men for the CO.
lonial service, shall be developed into an
Independent institution. This is regarded
as the first official step in the movement
to found a university in Hamburg. The
city already devotes s50O,OOO annually to-
ward the cost of its scientific institu-
tions. and the project evidently is to
merge the latter into one university,
though this word is as yet avoided.
1t is suggested that the example of
Munster. whose university includes neith-
er theological nor a medical faculty,
might be followed. and that these two
faculties be added as soon as the univer-
sity Is on firm footing

They require that it must be loaded
in cars first. This works hardship
on the cotton merchants, for at times
they want bill of lading and the rail
road company has no cars to receive
the cotton. The matter has beer
brought to the attention of the rail

trict.
