NOT INFORMED OF AN INJUNCTION.

Vice-President Eaton, of the Edison Electric
Light Company. said Friday that the company had
obtained an Injunction in Paris preventing the
United States Electric Light Company from exhibit
ing the Maxim lamp at the Paris Electrical EXposi-
ton. In regard TO that statement l.. l.. Curtis
rotary of the latter company, said yesterday to a
TRIBUNE reporter:
IL know nothing about any such Injunction ex-
cept what Major Eaton saws, an' don't believe any
Injunction has been obtained. We certainly would
have heard of it before this if our exhibit at
Paris had been enioined. We received q cable
this morning from our agent there stating
that the Edison Company had begun proceedings,
but saying nothing about any Injunction. | am
very confident he would have informed us if we had
been served with any snch injunction. We have
consulted our counsel Messrs C0udert Brothers,
who are very familiar with the French law, and
they advise that the granting of Injunction in
this way without notice 10 us would be very ex-
traordinary proceeding, aud they are not aware of
any provision of the law by which it would he au-
thorized. They advise us that if an injunction by
any chance has been obtained it will be vacated.
1t would appear from Major Eatons statement that
this proceeding has been brought in great hurry,
as he says they cableH instructions to their agents
some days ago to begin the suit"
