THE INJUNCTION VOID
Judge Jenkins Had No Right to Prohibit
Railroad Men From Striking,

WASHINGTON, May 5-The sub-commit-
tee OF the house committee on judiciary,
which was appointed to investigate the
circumstances attending the issue of an
injunction enjoining the Northern Pacific
employees from striking, and to inquire as
to whether Judge Jenkins, who issued the
injunction, had extended his judicial
power and used his office to intimidate the
employees of the railroad company, made
their report to the full committee.
The subcommittee find that the object
and purpose of both writs of injunction
wns to prevent the employees of the North
ern Pacific railway from strilSing-that Is,
from withdrawing from the service in a
body-which the court was informed by
tho officers of the road would result in
suspension of it's operations, inflict great
damage to the property and inconvenience
to the general public. The order, which
practically compelled the employees to ac-
cept lower rate of wages, and which pre-
vented the officers of the labor organiza-
tions from the discharge of one of the
most important functions In their posses
sion, is, In the opinion of the committee,
gross abuse of judicial authority, with
out the warrant of law, and void.
The committee is also of the opinion
that the men had n perfect right to with
draw from the service of the company,
singly or in a body if they saw fit to do
DO; that they had lawful right to com
bineto obtain the best terms of employ
ment, and any order of the court which
practically deprived them Of that right is
violation of their personal liberty. The
injurious effect of an exercise by them of
lawful right on the interests of the cor
poration and the public could not justly
be taken into consideration by the court.
The committee finds no sufficient evil
dence to sustain any charges against the
judge, as he may have eonscientiously be-
lieved that he had the power to issue the
writs complained of. The committee
recommends that, to set at rest any doubt
on the subject, n prohibitory statute be
enacted which will prevent the recurrence
OF such orders. 1t also recommends the
enactment of statute defining and limit
ing The powers of United States judges in
proceedings for contemDt

SPREAD OF THE COAL STRIKE
More Miners Going Out and Fuel Fam
inc ApprnMchIng.


ST.MARY's, Pa, May 5.-A meeting OF the
miners working at the Cascade and Hazel
Dell mines, operated by kaul a. Hall, wns
held at the works. Resolutions were unan-
imously adopted expressing sympathy
with the striking miners of the bitumin-
GUS coal fields of the state, but declaring
it IL matter of duty to fair employers to
continue ut work.
PEORIA, His, May Eight hundred
coal miners, headed by brass band and
drum corps, marched to two mines in
Tazewell county TO force the operatives to
quit work. They visited the Collier mine,
which has been running since the strike
began. Here the miners refused to quit,
but when the strikers got dcmonstrative
agreed to suspend until further notice.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 5.-lhe coal
miners strike seems to be no nearer an
end than when it began. The coal supply
of this district is gradually diminishing.
Owing to the scarcity OF coal Troy, Ala,
has been without lights for three weeks.
HARTsHoRNE, l. t., May 5-The coal
strike has not materiaized among the
mines located here aud elsewhere on the
line of the Chnctaw Coal and Railway
company. The miners unanimously voted
to continue at work.
PEORIA, Ills, May 5.-The City Electric
Railway company was compelled to shut

A NEW CoNEY ISLAND.
The Famous Seaside Resort Annexed to
tho City of Brooklyn.

tho City of BroOklyn.
NEW YORK, May 5--The annexation of
the town of Gravesend to the city of
Brooklyn, which went into effect yester-
day, is Of national Importance, inasmuch
as 1t brings under municipal government
the famous seaside resort, Coney Island,
which was the citadel of the Kingdom OF
John Y. McKane, who Is now serving
term in states prison for crimes conf
mitted against the franchise at the No
vember election. Coney Island proper
contains Manhattan Beach, with its two
mammoth hotels Brighton Beach and
West Brighton, the latter being the popu-
lar section Of the island, and containing
mum erous small hotels, liquor saloons
without number, variety shows, concert
halls, and the thousand aud one attrac-
tions which go to make up peoples hol-
iday place.
1t contains also street known as the
Bowery, which is largely composed of
dives, Here vice, in some places, runs
riot, unhampercd by law. Sunday is the
great day in the week there, the saloons
being in full blast, and the dance halls
holding open sway. Everything went dur
ing the McKane regime except injunc-
tions. Now that the city authorities con-
troll Coney Island it is expected that all
this will be changed. The Brooklyn po-
lice department will at once assume charge
of the town, and will blot out the dives,
regulate the dance halls and endeavor to
drive out the thieves, who prey upon the
visitors.
1t is hot expected that the Sunday laws
will e enforced with the same rigidity
that prevails within the present city linn
its, but on Sunday the music halls will be
closed and the saloons will not be permit
ted to faunt themselves in the faces Of
the multitudes. The Bowery will un-
doubtedly be blotted out, The cost of
liquor licenses will be raised from $50 to
500, and It is safe to say that one half Of
the present saloons will not have their
licenses renewed.

FINANCE AND TRADE.
q Cheering Report Despite the Many
- Strikes and InduslriaI Armies.

New YORK, May 5.-R. G. Dun g. Co.'S
weekly review of trade says: II is now,
as it has been for nearly year, the
amazement of intelligent observers that
the United States suffers so little from
reverscs which other lands share but
which fall more heavily here than any
where else. Notwithstanding the STIR
ring events of the past week the volume
of business is but 31,3 per cent. less than u
year ago. In some directions signs of
improvement appear even now, and the
sublime faith of the people in their future
is shown in the general belief that strikes
and disorders will quickly disappear.
Money markets hive not been disturbed
by the large outgo of gold. which was
taken mainly from the treasury through
redemption OF notes
The most encouraging sign is the marked
decrease In liabilities of firms failing,
which were only 81 ,4iS, ia fer the last
week of April, and for four weeks $s72?,-
I0S, of which 81, 122 30 were of manufnc-
turing and a ,644 ,361 of trading concerns.
The amount OF liabilities ut the south WAS
81 ,9la,4l9, against S3,lll ,092 in eastern and
t. 6J2, 25T in western states.
The failures this week have been o39 in
the United States, against PIG last year,
and So in Canada against 2f last year.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-Another oppor-
tunity was afforded the Commonweal
leaders to exploit themselves before the
public yesterday in the police court pro-
ceedings against the leaders. Marshal
Carl Browne took advantage of the oc-
casion to swagger about in his buckskin
apparel and once put in word of com
ment regarding the proceedings. Judge
Miller threatened to have the marshal
consigned to the dock. There was an
audience gathered which filled the court
room and included most of the Populist
leaders, as well as other members of con-
gress. Senator Allen, while disclaiming
sympathy with what he called the vision
ary ideas of Coxey, made n strong plea for
the constitutional rights of citizens to
peaceably assemble and petition congress.
Judge Miller refused separate trial for
Coxey, so the three defendants are in one
boat. They were represented by three at
torneys- Representative Lafe Pence of
Colorado, ex-Assistnnt District Attorney
A. A. Lpscomb of Washington, and {
young and inexperienced lawyer named
with good nature and informality. Once
Representative Van Voorhis, of New
York, interiected speech, although he
had no particular connection with the
case, and it was difficult to tell who were
the actual participants.
The first witness for the government
was Detective Horne, of Washington,
who had Travelled with the army for sew
era days as an enlisted ''Wealer." He
told how Coxey enlisted him in commune
A, as No. Is. Under cross examination
by Representative Pence, the detective
detailed his orders, said that none of the
men were armed, and that he had never
heard Coxey or his men threaten any re-
sort to violence lie had represented on
joining that he was an unemployed labor
ing man. Some of the men had got
drunk, but he had heard General CoXey
say that he would dismiss any men
caught drunk or begging,
Major Moore testified regarding CoNcy's
threat to speak from the Capitol steps
