United Hatters of North Amer-
ica Want Big Damages From
Merritt & Son, of Danbury,
Claiming the Non-Union Hat
Firm Counterfeited the Union
Label

 

One of the most important suits on
trial in the civil superior court for a
long time was taken up yesterday
morning before Judge Shumway. it
is the action brought by Martin Law-
Ior. secretary of the United Hatters of
North America, against Charles H.
Merritt & Son. of Danbury, a non-un-
ion liat ilrm. claiming that the latter
has been using counterfeit union la.-
beis upon its products.

The United Hatters some months
ago (Attained a temporary injunction
from Judge George W. Wheeler, pre-
venting the non-union firm from using
its labels until after the tliulositlon of
the suit by the courts. Judge Wheel-
er stated that the labels were un-
doubtedly couniori’ciis of the allies la-
bel.

The plaintiffs want the injunction
made pcrmtincnt and they. also claim
substantial damages, asking for the
profits of the iirni made ,by the sale
of all lists bearing the alleged coliti-
teri’oit. label. The case promises to
be a well contested one and may take
some time to try. There were many
witnesses present yesterday morning.

The Hon. Daniel Davenport. who is
counsel for the non-union Danbury
batters In their big anti-boycott still
against the United Hatters of North
America ,was an interested spectator
in court yestertlae morning.

Many styles of “Derby" bats were
exhibited yesterday morning and
shown to the judge so he could see the
genuine union labels upon them. while
various advertisements of the hatters‘
union were shown. John A. Moffatt,
president of the United Hatters of
North America, was asked by the at,-
tor'neys for the plaintiff what use the
union label was to the union. "it se—
cures the members good earning pow-
ers," he said, “good sanitary places in
which to work and prevents the em-
ployment of children under certain
ages. Wbcn a manufacturer wants
to usc thc union lubcl he agrees to
abide by certain rules. one of which Is
to provide a minimum earning power
of silt pcr wock for his cluployccs.
That we consider a very fair earning
power."

Secretary Lawior was also on the
stand, lie ltlcniilicil the various un-
ion labels used and told about their
adoption. 0n the cross-examination
he was asked the methods used by the
union firms to prevent. the sale of non«
union goods.

Attorneys Beach and Taylor appear
for the plaintiffs and (lruuvillc Whit-
tlcscy for the defendants.

Have Special Train Hall in

President Theodore Roosevelt is to
stop for a brief period of time in
South Norwalk and give the residents

of the community an opportunity to
see anil hear him. His special train
will pass through here at 5:50 or 5:65
this evening and the stop will be
made at the west‘ bound railroad sta-
t on

Congressman E, J. Hill will be on
the train with him, and it was through
the congressman's Intercession that
the president granted the request to
have the train stop for a minute or
two.

The Southern New England Telea
phone Company notified all the local
factories this morning. and many of
them have arranged to permit their
men out earlier than usual to see the
president.

The national salute of 21 blasts will
be blown on the whistle at the electric
light station, and probably many other
factories will give the salute.

Congressman Hill is desirous of hav—
ing it large delegation of people at
the station to show the appreciation
of the people for the honor which is
conferred on South Norwalk.

Station Agent Frederick E. Ray-
mond-had a conference with Congress-
man Hill. this noon, and Mr. Raymond
stated that he would arrange to have
the president's train on the» inside
track. and the rear end of the last cal"
would be over the tunnel between the
two stations. This will give all an

hear what he has to say.

The engineer on the run from Pitts.
field to Harlem River will be Harry
Grant, the "boy wonder" engineer on
the New York, New Haven and Hart~
ford Railroad. Grant took the presi-
dent's train Wednesday morning from
Harlem River to New Haven. He was
a fireman years ago when the presi-
dent was a New York commuter, and
the president in those days used to
shake hands with him in his cat) and
predict that he would become a suc-
cessful engineer. It is needless to
say that Mr. Grant kept a good look-
out for the safety of the train yet»
icrduy morning. Smith Worriner was
the conductor,

At New Haven Engineer Fred Maya
took the train. and ran it to Worces-
ter. Harry Darling was the conduc-
tor.
