The A 7. a S. F. Road Ahead Now.
| DENVER Col, June 12.-The difficult
ties between the AtchisOn, Topeka s.
Santa Fe and Denver s. Rio Grande
railroads, which eliminated yesterday in
a serious conflict between the employees
of the former company and certain per
sons in the interest of the latter, seeking
to enforce an order of Injunction issued
nv i nHOn Rowan Of N TT 10
again taken a turn in favor OF the Santa
Fe company, Judge Hallett, United
States district judge, having decided this
morning that the order issued by Judge
Bowen was absolutely void, and that the
cause was wholly within the Federal
courts, and that he will held the d. & r.
Ct. company and those acting with them
under the order of Bowen fully respOns-
ible for their acts. The attempt made
by the ID. & r. G. Co. to take forcible
possession by means of void order is
sued by State court In q matter then
pending before Judge Hallett, is a clear
contempt of the authority of the federal
courts, and those who are acquainted
with Judge Hallett's ability as a Judge
and general firmness of character, proph-
esy-a very interesting scene when the
parties are brought before him.
II seems that there is now a fair pros
pect of law and order being maintain ed
and that resort to force to accomplish
what the courts deny will be no longer
tolerated.
:. Judge Hallett stated in delivering his
opinion that as soon as he had the order
of Judge Bowen before him he would
then issue such orders as were proper
} and it is confidently expected by the
Santa Fe company that one of those or
ders will be for the restoration of the
property TO the possession OF that com
pany.
