OGDEN, April 9.--This has been one
of the momentous days in the history
of Ogden. The hearing for an injunc-
ton against the Southern Pacific Rail-
road company, restraining it from un-
loading or allowing the Industrial army
to remain in Ogden. or in the territory
of Utah, was heard before Chief Justice
Merritt and Associate Justice Miner.
It appears from the evidence OF the
officers of the army that it is composed
of vagrants and trRmps who have no
money or means of support, and who
started from San Francisco without
either food or bedding, and with but
scanty clothing; that their transporta-
ton was paid from San Francisco to
Oakland by the mayor of San Francisco;
that their fare from Oakland to Sacra-
mento in cattle cars was paid by contri-
buttons from the citizens of Oakland,
and that their fare from Sacramento to
Ogden was paid by the governor of Cali
fornia and the mayor of Sacramento,
but nothing whatever was paid by any
member of the army.
1t also transpired that Governor West
served notice upon the officers, agents
and attorneys of the company last Sat
urday noon, forbidding them from being
brought into the territory; that the
governor was told by the superintend-
ent that the trSin was sidetracked in
Nevada waiting for the matter to be
satisfactorily adjusted and the governor
did aot know of the intention of the
company to bring the mon to Ogden
until after O'Clock Sunday afternoon
when he was informed that they would
be here at 6:l5. He immediately took
! served upon the superintendent "a min
utes before the train arrived, forbidding
the company from bringing the men
into Ogden or permitting them to leave
the cars.
Superintendent Bancroft of the Union
Pacific; Welpy of the Rio Grande West
ern; Knapp of the Southern Pacific ;
| Colonel Baker, commander of the In
dustrials; Captain Baker. Governor
! West, Marshal Pratt and others testified.
The evidence proved without doubt the
indigence of the army and pointed
strongly in the direction that the citi-
zens and officials OF California we're in
strumental in foieting these 1900 pau
pers upon this city.
Tonight, after full hearing of the
case, the court issued permanent in
F.! junction, requiring the railroad COM
psny to keep the men confined in the 81
cars in which they were transported.
To remove them and not to permit them
to remain in the territory. 1t ia ex-
pected that the company will obey the
order of the court and Immediately re-
move the men from the territory, other
wise summary proceedings will be taken
to return the men to California. The
militia and strong police force are held
on duty closely guarding the men and
prepared to enforce the order of the
court.
The result of the injunction has
caused much excitement, as it is known
that there will be great danger of trouble
in enforcing it, the Industrials having
repeatedly asserted that they will not 20
back. Developments of an exciting
nature may be looked for.
Judge Marshall, attornsy for the South
ern Pacific, gave notice of an appeal to
the supreme court from the order OF the
lower court. He asked for stay of ex-
ecution until the appeal could be heard.
The request was denied by the court.
At this hour, IL p. M, Marshall Brig
ham is swearing in go deputy marshals.
He had no difficulty in getting all the
men he wanted. Notice is to be served
on Superintendent Knapp OF the South
ern Pacific within an hour.
Superintendent Knapp was interviewed
late tonight by an Associated Press
reporter and stated that be would do
what he could to follow out the spirit of
the order of the cou-t, aud that at 6
O'Clock tomorrow he will advise the In
dustrials to board the boxcsrs and peace
fully submit to being carried back. At
IL O'Clock tonight the militia on guard
we're relieved by so deputy United States
marshals. The governor ordered the
sheriff OF Weber county to relieve the
marshals with an adequate force at 4
u. m.
