The significance of the movement in

RAILROADS ENJ0IA.
MISSOURI OFFICIALS
Make First Move in Fight
Against the Maximum
Freight Law.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 16.-Judge
Smith Mcpherson of Red Oak, Ia, In the
United States District Court here to-day,
issued temporary injunction restraining
the State Railway and Warehouse Com
missioners of Missouri and the Attorney
General of the State from enforcing the
maximum freight law which went into
effect to-day and against three Kansas
City shippers. preventing the latter from
claiming penalties under the law.
The injunction was granted at the re-
quest of eighteen railways doing busi-
ness in Missouri, which brought suit
against the State officials on the ground
that the rates provided in the new law
are prohibitive and would amount to the
confiscation of their property. The suit
against the three Kansas City shippers
is intended TO cover the shippers of the
State as a class and the order of the
court against them will restrain them
from bringing action against the railways
under the law, The order of the court Is
made returnable on June 26, when the
railroads will seek to nave it made per-
manent. At that time District Judge
John F. Phillips will hear the case with
Judge Mcpherson.
