his head, announced himself as an Austrian and

defied the spies of England to come and arrest him. (...)

„Violating the criminal section of the infringement law“

Editorial content. „TO GUARD FILM SERIES

      Concern Made Defendant on Infringement Charges.

      The Keystone Film Company, which has

started a crusade in Manhattan against the making of films

except by itself depicting the well-known countenance

of Charlie Chaplin, has begun an action in the Federal Court

against the Modern Film Laboratories, Isaac Picker

and others, alleging an infringement of the copyright law.

The United States marshal seized a number of reels

of photoplays in which ,Charlie Chaplin‘ was the principal actor.

      The plaintiff sets forth that the defendant does

business at 199 Newell street, Brooklyn; that Mark Sennett,

an author of photoplays, had granted to the plaintiff

the exclusive right to produce plays in which Charlie Chaplin

appeared, and that these plays had been copyrighted.

Among these photoplays were Dough and Dynamite, Gentlemen

of Nerve, His Trysting Places and His Historic Past.

With the application for an injunction went one for a writ

of seizure which was granted by Judge Chatfield.

      Abraham George Levi, a moving picture broker, of 145 West

Forty-fifth street, was arraigned before United States

Commissioner Houghton in Manhattan yesterday on a charge

of violating the criminal section of the infringement law.“

      Mack Sennett is Keystone‘s CEO.

      Charles Chaplin left the company end of 1914.
