REsTRAlNs FELLOW OFFICERS.
Grand Chief Stone Prevented From
Changing Date OF Engineers Meet.

Cleveland, Ohio, April S.-Third as
sistanr Chief Eli Stevens OF the Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engineers, yes
terday afternoon secured an injunction
temporarily restraining Grand Chief
Stone or other officers of the organiza-
ton from holding the annual conven-
ton in Cleveland or any other point
aside from Los Angeles Cal. The latter
city was originally chosen as the place
for holding the convention, but owing
to high transportation rates a move
ment was recently started to hold the
convention, which meets May II, in
this city.
Grand Secretary Ingraham said yes
tesrday afternoon that while there had
been some talk OF holding the conven-
ton at some point in the middle west
as a result OF the extreme cost OF trans
portation to Los Angeles, the officers at
no time had definitely decided on such
a step. He added. that as matter of
fact, the delegates would get reduced
rates on account of the Methodist gem
eral conferences to be held at Los An
geIes commencing May s. and that as
a result the brotherhood convention
will doubtless be held in that city as
originally planned.
