CHICAGO. June 2j.-Judge Jenkins in

must be $S3,s74.7S per day to realize q
sum sufficient to pay the government
the 81, 1928, 100 of souvenir coins received

the board of directors, it is cited,
adopted a resolution to refund to the
United States the 81, y29, 100 without au.

It is further contended that if the

position company of $50, 600 per day OF
upwards OF 81, $50, 900 during the season,
and that for the exposition directors to
attempt to carry out their resolutions
throwing the gates open, and make
good the promise to pay back the

entail a loss upon compliments as

The COURTS therefore asked to permit
an injunction to issue restraining the
