Opposes Powder Merger


On petition of Thomas E. Jones, of
Scranton, Pa, a stakeholder in the En-
terprise Manufacturing Company, Judge
E. G. Newcomb on Tuesday granted a
preliminary Injunction restraining the
process Of merging this company with
the Latin & Rand Powder Company and
+. /. DUPONT De Ne Mours & Co. The
petitioner alleges that the last two nam-
ed companies have gained control Of the
directorate Of the Enterprise Company
and are seeking to diminish its business.
As an instance to prove this he cites
the failure of the company to enforce its
contract with the Lehigh Valley Coal
Company, by which the latter company
must buy from it a certain amount of
powder each year, and that the other
companies, which the controlling direc-
tors favor, are given the orders from the
Lehigh Valley Coal Company.
