nection with the proceedings for injunction

F. Noske. all three being officers Of the
Union Veterans Union, overruled the mo-
ton Of the defendants that the temporary

property rights In the organization, ana
having no appeal within the union from the
order suspending him from his command

the courts.
Gen. Meacham, in his bill of complaint,
asked that Messrs. Dyrenforth and Noske
be enjoined from in any manner interfering
with the complainant and his staf in the
exercise of his rights and the discharge OF
his duties as division commander OF the
Division of the Potomac, Union Veterans
Union, or Order of Union Battle Men; and
that the defendants be required to revoke
order of September 81 last peremptorily
suspendng the complainant from his rank
and position of major general commander
of the Division Of the Potomac.
Justice Barnard has not yet signed the
formal order overrulng the motion OF the
defendants that the injunction order be dis
solved.

Delegation From Chicago Asks Him to
Stop Strike.

HARRISBURG, Pa, October IA dele
cation of Chicago clergymen and business
men called upon Governor Stone at the
executive department this afternoon and
urged him to take prompt action to settle
the coal strike. The delegation was COM
posed Of Rabbi Emil G. Hirsch, chairman:

Strong, r. A White and S. r. Holden. VIII
b. Corwin, Lawrence E. McGinn, James
McAndrews DR.. G. ]. Gray, NJ. G. Holding
and DR.. c. A. Young.
Rev. Hirsch said the situation in the
strike region was without parallel in the
history Of the country, and that the people
of the west were in sympathy with the
movement TO effect a settlement between
the operators and miners. The party had
no suggestion to offer to end the strike, but
simply called upon the governor to take
such action. as in his Judgment, would
bring the trouble to an end.
Father Dorney said the delegation came
as friends of the state Of Pennsylvania to
ask the executive to advise with them as
