move it's poles and wires. That COM
pany appealed to the courts and lost,

INJUNCTION GRANTED.
Restraining Order Issued by Federal
Judge Against Labor Unions
I'm Kansas City.

Kansas City, May 23.-An injunction
was granted Friday by Judge Phillips
of the federal court against the indus
trial council and most of the labor or
CARNATIONS in Kansas City restraining
the defendants from interfering with
the employees of two restaurants, from
posting the names of customers eating
at these restaurants, and from doing
anything calculated to injure the bust
ness of the restaurants. The iniunc,
ton is the most sweeping in character
that has ever been granted by the fed
eral court against the labor unions in
this city. The cooks and walters were
enjoined some time ago from pacing
back and forth in front of nonunion
restaurants and shouting to people to
boycott such places. After that the
union men watched the people who
ate at the nonunion restaurants and
had their names printed on cards as
being unfriendly to working people,
after which the cards were scattered
broadcast. The injunction granted Fri
day forbids this.
