Preventative called ON Judge Bryant at his
bctel tonight and asked what acuion was
had in the matter: He said: 81 was asked
to consider the application for an injunc.
ton against the railway commission, which
declined to do doubt that have, as
district Judge. any Jurisdiction to do So
as 1t was not Of any matter to be filed and
disposed Of in my district. mad not the
time to do so while holding the United
States circuit court in Fort Worth"
Judge Brynnt stated that he did not even
nave time TO read the application and
therefore was not aware OF It's contents. 1t
Is learned here tonight that similar appli-
cation was made to Judge Mccormick last
Monday, but he also refused to consider it,
on what grounds your correspondent could
not learn.
The application referred to was for an
order restraining the railroad commission
from enforcing its compress regulations,
notice OF the probable making Of which
was given in The Posts Austin dispatches
ten days ago. Those asking for the order
were the McFadden Compress people, rep
resentatives OF whom appeared at recent
railroad commission meeting and asked
that the compress regulations be so modi-
fed as TO allow the movement of flat cotton
past the Weatherford and Bowie presses to
Fort Worth. which request was denied
There was no railroad company concerned
In the application and 1t can be stated en-
good authority that there Is no intention
on the part OF any OF the transportation
lines at the present time OF asking for an
Injunction Of any kind against the COM
mission.
Judge Bryant gave orders for Jury to re

beginning October IS. Federal court will

MED that any Injunction suit against the

be had been informed by two prominent
railway officials in the State that the

surd. He believed their statements. he
said. for he believed they were working
for the best interest OF the roads and it
certainly would not be to their interest
to bring an injunction suit. He further said
dence that would dissolve the injunction
and that the roads would then certainly
be prosecuted for each violation OF the
