MANAGER McGRAW's CASE.
A Temporary Injunction Granted Him
Against Pulliam.

BOSTON, June "a temporary injunc-
ton against Harry c. Puliam, president
of the National League of Base Ball Clubs,
was issued by Justice Sheldon of the su-
perior court here today in favor of John j.
McGraw manager of the New York Ma
tional League club.
The court order restrains Pulliam from
enforcing suspension and fine recently
imposed upon McGraw, pending hearing
to be held at later date.
The injunction also restrains the various
umpireS of the Natioral League from pre-
venting McGraw from going on the field In
the capacity of a playing manager.
Manager McGraw was suspended for fif-
teen days and fined $50 for alleged mis-
conduct during a game in New York city
between the Pittsburg and New York teams
At meeting of the National League direc-
tors here last Monday an attempt was made
to have this action of President Pulliam
nulified, but 1t was not successful. There
upon McGraw carried the matter to the
court. The restraining order will be In
force until such time as the court orders
its removal.
The courts action, was interpreted by
Manager McGraw as giving him permission
to take part. in today's game in this city
with the Boston nine.
In issuing the injunction Judge Sheldon
announced that under rule % of the Ma
tional League bylaws Pulliam had no right
to suspend McGraw without proper proof.
Unless Pulliam had seen the misconduct
himself. which he did not" said Judge Shell
don, ''he should have given McGraw notice
of charges against him, which he did not
and consequently the court renders null and
void the action Of Pulliam in this case"
1t is understood that further hearing
may be deferred until the New York club
returns to Boston in September. While the
action of the court is not binding beyond
Massachusetts, McGraw claims that 1t will
furnish an important precedent in legal
steps which he may take in other states.
