INJUNCTION
IS REFUSED
OPINION IN THE GUERNSEY
EQUITY CASE.
Judge Wheaton, Before Whom the
Case Was Tried, Decides That the
Evidence in the Case Is Not Suffi
cient to Warrant Him In Contln
ing Preliminary Injunction Wo
man Asks for a Divorce from a Man
to Whom She Says She is Wife
No. 2 An Ejectment Suit.
An opinion was filed yestoidny by
Judge F. W. Wheaton, ot Wilkes-Banc,
with Prothonotury John Copeland, In
the equity case of J. W. Guernsey, In
which ho refuses to continue the pre
liminary injunction lestrnlnlng M. W.
Guernsey from using the word "Guern
sey" on pianos. The opinion follows:
The preliminary Injunction enjoins the
defendant from soiling, lcawlng or hand
ling In any manner pianos with tho name
Guernsey stenciled on them.
Uoth plaintiff and defendant have for
many eaii been dealers In plnnos, or
igins nnd musical supplies In the city of
Scranton. They are not related to each
other. , . , .,
The plaintiff has never traded under the
Dingle name of Gucrnev, hut at different
limes as J. W. Gtietnsey, as the Colum
bus Music store, J. W. Guernsey pioprle
tor; Guernsey Hall, J. W. Guernsey, pro
prietor. The defendant has traded under
the name of M. W. Guernsey and Gucrn
bev Brothers. ,
The plaintiff has never been a manufac
tuier of pianos; the defendnnt, as Ouern
nev Brothers was from 18H0 to 1S91 en
gngod in the manufacture of pianos.
About one year ago the defendant be
gun selling, leasing and handling an up
iIrIU piano htcnclled "Guernsey." This
piano was a modification, nnd, It is
elalmcd, nn Improvement on the piano
former! v mnnufaetuied by the defendant.
It Is manufnetiucd in New York by a
third partv, accoullng to plans nnd de
hIriis, elalmed to be to omo extent orlgl
ii. il, dclsed bv William Guernsey, a
Jn other ot the defendnnt, who testified
that the name "Guernsey," stenciled
theieon, I his (William's) own name nnd
ti ado-mark, put there by Ids authoilty to
indicate the designer and Inventor ot this
particular Kind of piano. William Guern
sey Is not a piitv to the bill.
On the in-.lde of this pl.iho, In raised
letters, are the wonls "Guernsey Broth
ers," or "Guernsey Bros."
DIDN'T T'SIl WOBD GUnRNSCY.
Tho plaintiff neer sold. leased or han
dled a piano. orgun or other musical In
strument upon which the name Guernsey
nlono was placid cither by stencil or
otherwise. '
12on If I wcto to reject the testimony
or William Guernsey, and It Is not con
tiadictory, nnd ecn If the plaintiff had
used the name Gueinsev. either by sten
cil or otheiwlbe as a distlnctle mnik for
n piano sold etc . bv him, the use of tho
word Gueinsev bv the defendant without
nunc would not warrant the contlnunnte
of the preliminary injunction.
The mere name or a. pcton or of a
place cannot, as,n genei.il lido, be nppio
pilited as a trade-mark; at least not In
the sense of pi eventing another pcr-on
lining the same name or residing in tho
Mime plate, from using It. So in a. con
test between poisons of the same name,
"DailliiRtnu" the Supienie eouit bas:
"Had thev." the plaintiffs, "used meielv
Mie name "Darlington," anv other per
pnn of that name could h.ue stamped
his hutlcr as Darlington's butter."
(Pratt's Appeal, 117 Pa., p. 111). (Sec also
C.irmlclincl s. Latllnior, II It. T.. SO";
Turtnn s. Turton, 1. R.. 42lIi. Div. 12S).
The plaintiff does not dispute this as a
peneial proposition of law. but alleges
that the defendant Is within the excep
tion to the mle which will not peimit a
man to use een his own name in a
fiaudulent manner to the damage of an
other of the s,nme name.
Cases defining the exception nio as mi
meious nnd ns clear, as c.t-os defining the
rule. "They lest upon a fradulcnt use of
a name."
I fall to find nnywhcie In the evidence
any misrepresentation bv tho defendant
In this caso in the selling, leasing or
handling of a single one of tho pianos
stenciled Gueinsev. and theicfoio noth
ing fraudulent, unless the mere use of
the name, perhaps with a malicious mo
tive, amounts to a fi.iud. It does not ap
pear that at any time or to nnjbody the
defendant has leprescntcil that the plain
tiff had anything to do with the "Guern
sey" piano, or was In any way responsi
ble for It, If It tinned out badly or en
titled to any ciedlt, If It turned out well.
CONFLICT OF TESTIMONY.
Instead of this, the plaintiff's proof, if
believed, would tend to establish a malic
ious motive on tho part of the defendant,
nnd for that purpose tho door was opened
cry wide. If, however, the defendant
lias a right to use his own name, then Its
mero use by him Is n lawful act, and
does not become actionable, although It
may proceed from a malicious motive,
rurchaseis may bo mistaken, but unless
they nro dcceled by talso representa
tions, equity will not enjoin against tell
ing trio tiuth. (Glendor Grow Co. vs. Uli
ler, 75 Pn p. 471).
As I have already said. I find no evi
dence of false icpresentntlons by the de
fendant connected with tho salo or leas
ing of tho Guernsey piano. By amend
ment plaintiff added parties defendant,

Join the defendant from Impersonating
tho plaintiff, and from representing and
holding himself out ns J. W. Guernsey,
or Guernsey, and from making further
sales of pianos, organs and muslcat In
struments under tho name, stylo and title
of Guernsey, Kvldenco of Impersonation
Is confined to a single Instance which
happened more than throe years ago, In
connection with tho teasing of an organ,
If thcro had been sufficient evidence of
hnhltual and threatened fraud upon the
plaintiff by way of Impersonation, or It
had been shown that defendant frequent
ly represented himself as J, W Guern
sey for the purpose of defrauding plain
tiff In the salo of pianos, organ and
musical Instruments, nnd threatened to
continue such fraudulent practices, f
should feel disposed to enjoin him from
so doing, If upon Investigation t should
find that .equity had Jurisdiction of tho
case. Under tho evidence, however, I do
not find enough to warrant mo In enlarg
ing the Injunction applied for, or In con
tinuing the Injunction heretofore grunted,
even in modified form.
Tho motion to continue tho piellmlnnrv
Injunction In this coie is refused, and tho
injunction heretofore granted Is dissolved.

THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.
New York, Aug. 21. Active speculative
liquidation became manifest la today's
stock muikct and at the close the selling
movement was mgent and somewhat
precipitated. Dm lug the earlier pait of
the day some htatul was made against
the tendeniy to depression, and a lew
stoiks weie pushed up at dlfteient times
as 11 sustaining inlluence upon the mar
ket, but the sellng to leullze elsewhere
la the mm Ice t was steadily going on all
the time. At the last, the liquldatloa
heemrd to have procieded to such an ex
tent, that the effoits to suppoit the mar
ket weie withdrawn and all semnlance
of leslstnnce to the weakness dlsap
peaied. The stocks which weie notably
btiong jcsteiday and foi home time pie
lously staitcd out at declines this morn
ing nnd showed the laigest effect of tho
selling piessuie at the last. Some smull
gains weie letdlncd oven at the last In a
few of tho stocks which had lison earllci,
but la othcis the gains weie moie than
wiped out. The upwnid movement In the
Denvei nnd Rio Gi.mde stocks which de
veloped dining the day after a pmlod of
quiet, was the most conspicuous, but
Denver and Rio Grande closed with a
.substantial net loss. Louisville and
Nashville was notably weak and fell
back at one time thice points The ad
vance in Western Union was said to be
due to piessuie upon the shoits, the
demand for the stock In tho loan ciowd
being such as to Lommand n. piemlum
With the exception of Texas and Pacillc
and Ontatio and Western, the other dem
onstrations of stiength weie In minor
lain oad and industilal stoiks. The acute
weakness of Coloiado Fuel which car
lied it down In the late dealings S points,
was also an unsettling Influence upon the
whole maikct. The f.illuie of the specu
lative opciator who has led the advance
In tho Htoik to obtain contiol of the
pinpoitv lias lesulted In heavy speculative
liquidation Tbeic wns a notable absence
of demand at the close oven fiom the
piofesslonal Intel est. which must have
been active on the downwind course of
pi ices dining the day and tho closing
tone wns distinctly weak. Thoie was no
nctual new development to account for
the .sudden disposition to .sell stocks Tnit
thcio was a vciy matcilal change In sen
timent, which iiuscd an alteicd view of
the same conditions ns existed yesterday.
Tho sentimental chaiacter of yesterday's
llse, and that which had pieceded it for
seveial dajs. left a great piobabillty of
a miction. Kxtiavagant as wcio the ex
pectations ns to tho piomfUltude and ex
tent of tho mensuio which Mr. Morgan
would take to Improve tho situation, there
was some disappointment this moinlng
over tho delaj. Tho hopo seemed to ho
that Mr. Moigan's huiiled visit to his
office Immediately upon landing fiom the
steamer would icsult In tho settlement off
hand of all tho vuilous piohlcms which
have accumulated dining his absence of
