RIGHTS OF SMALL SHIPPERS.
Railroads Cannot Discriminate Against
Them Under Elkins Law.

Chicago April 24--Judge Grosscup to-day entered
an order In the United States Circuit Court Of APP
peals enjoining six railroad companies from dis
eliminating against small shippers in the western
territory. The decision is especially important as
being the first under the EIkins. law.
The government. according to the decision. is
entitled to the injunction against the offending
railroads under the Interstate Commerce Act.
well the Ezins law The ruling applies to four
teen railroads which covered by proceedings
instituted in the Federal Court Six of these COM
panies were defendants In the local court; tha
others are under the Jurisdiction of the Kansas
City Federal Court. Judge Grosscup announced
that he and Judge Phillips were of one mind re-
lative TO all the points involved. and that the lat
ter would render a like decision to-day. The de-
csion. which given orally, holds that the
government has the right to bring an action in
equity to restrain railroad companies from dis
eliminating either by furnishing lower rates or
giving rebates favored shippers. 1t further de-
clares that while each injured citizen has right
such relief in his behalf, in cases like those
Under consideration the injured persons are so
numerous and the injury to each is SO infinitely
small. that 1t is the duty OF the government TO
act for them under the power specifically conferred
by the statutes The Elkins law is held to be
simply declaratory Of the substantive rights which
existed before. and an Injunction would lie under
the Interstate Commerce Act.

FEAR sHIPYARDS TIEUP.
Strike Would Put Shipbuilding Here Back
Twenty Years, Says Mr.. Hunter.

1t was looked settled yesterday that unless
the Brotherhood Of Boiermakers and Iron Snip
builders recedes from it's demands for the employ
ment OF only union men, a general tieup IN all
the shipyards in and around New-YOrk on May l
is inevitable. A special meeting of all the mem
bers of the New-YOrk Metal Trades Association
and the firms in the metal trades outside the as
sOciation has been called for rext week to take
definite action the demands According 10 the
representatives of the New-York Metal Trades As
socation, strike would put the shipbuildins trade
here back for at least twenty years.
Secretary Hunter OF the Metal Trades Associa-
ton said yesterday that the situation looked seri
1.-The master shipbuiders will not grant the De
mand for the employment of only union men,. ne
said. Two conferences have been held between
the executive committee Of association and
the Marine Trades Council. but no decision mas
been reached on this point Unless the brother
hood withdraws it's demands, ard it has made the
matter ultimatlm. cannot see how a strike
will be avoided. II will be great blow to the
shipbuildng industry in New-York for many years.
I can see way out of the deadlock
Twelve thousand men would be affected by such
a strike.
