obtain control IN thi. order, the
court enjoined the defendants tn ac-
ton. w. E. Lucas ct a. from furth-
er proceedings in the State courts of
South Carolina, and from interfering
with the Milliken people.
This Orde. does not undertake 20
interfere with the State courts, it is
stated. but simply restraints the par ties
to the action. The or lec will proba-
bly, thwart Lucas and his friends in
their efforts to prevent Mlllikcn from
voting a block of 500 shares Cf the
Laurens Mills. stock which he holds
and which, when he does vote Will

here as one of the most important
ever decided in the South.

State courts by Lucas to compel Mil
liken to transfer 500 shares of stock
which it is alleged he had sold to Lu-
cas- and refused to turn over. A suit
for $4,000 damages was also COM
menced against Milliker by Lucas.
The cause was removed to the Uni
ted States courts and was heard by
Judge Brawley, who dissolved the in
junction. Before the injunction was
dissolved. however, the annual meeting
of the Stockholders Of the Lauren S

necessary amount Of stock represent
ed including that Of the Millikens
a sheriff, who was IN wGitihg. served
papers on the Milllkens restraining
them from voting. The Millikens left

in control. The Mllikens sought be-
fore Judge Pritchard to have the
board of directors Of the Laurens Cot
ton Mills declared nDonstitutiOnally
elected and their acts void and in
valid. Judge Pritchard decided that
the relief commanded must be OBJ
tanned in a court of law and not d
