HEAVY BLOW TO THz ASSOCIATION
BALTIMORE. MD. April 16.-The long
delayed and anxiously-awaited decision
in the Injunction proceedings instituted
by the seaboard Air Line against the
Western and Atlantic, and the Nashville,
Chattanooga and st. Louis railroad, which
was handed down In Atlanta. Ga, to-
day. aroused great interest in this city
where 4 majority OF the stock Of the
Seaboard Company is owned The pre-
vaiiing opinion among railroad men is
that the decision Is a death-blow TO the
Southern Railway and Steamship Ass0-
citation. The action was in reality 10
determine how far the courts would sus-
tain the organization in enforcing boy
cott. and by to-day's decision takes away
most Of the Associations power, besides
establishing a legal precedent which may
be used against traffic associations
throughout the country. IL is certain that
the boycott Of the Seaboard Air Line has
been killed.
