SWEEPING INJUNCTION
Issued Against the Transfers
Union at Kansas City.

Kansas City, No. March 14.-Judge
John F. Philips. in the United States
States district court, has issued a sweeps
ing injunction restraining all members
of the local team drivers International
union from interfering with the bust
ness of the transfer companies of the
city, whose men are on strike. The
eleven companies petiti0ned the court to
restrain the strikers and their sympa
thizers on the ground that interference
with wagons on their way to depots ana
shipping yards is in violation Of inter
state commerce laws. The plaintiffs
argued that goods are on transit in the
meaning of the law, from the moment
they are loaded into a wagon when a
receipt is given by the transfer COM
panS, and this contention was upheld
by the court The injunction, which is
temporary one, is made returnable on
March 30.
Notices of the Injunction issued upon
petition of the Kansas City transfer
companies We're served upon thirty eig hit
labor leaders and strikers, but had lit
tie effect But few men were employed
to take the strikers places, and what
men did go to work accomplished but
little work.
In the bottoms ten strikers We're
arrested for stOning a driver and block
aiding the thoroughfare, and it became
necessary for the police to dispense the
crowd, but no one was hurt. Later as
many more men We're arrested for OBJ
structing the sidewalks, and a charge
of disturbing the peace was placed
against them.
