versed in patents generally, and selected

regular and full cours, in law, and
graduated in 1879. He then began the prac-
tice of law in Massachusetts, and later in

INJUNCTION PERMANENT.
Frisco Sailors And Firemen Lose Suit
In United States Court,

San Francisco, Oct. 20.-The United
States circuit court of appeals decided
against the sailors union of the Pacific
and the Pacific coast marine firemen's
union in their appeal from the injunc-
ton issued by the circuit court on the
application of the Hammond Lumber
company, which claimed that it had
been damaged to the amount of over
$4,000 by the unions interfering with
its vessels, a union picket boat crew
dissuading crews from sailing on
them. 1t was also stated that the
pay damages if awarded,
In appealing the unions stated that
they were solvent, having a fund of
$150,000, and the appellee had relief in
a suit for damages; that the injunction
was violative of their rights; that they
had a right to endeavor to improve
their condition, to organize for that
purpose and to communicate their de-
sires to others for that purpose.
In affirming the former judgment
and so making permanent the injunc-
ton the judges gave as their opinion
that the 'solvency or insolvency of the
appellant was immaterial as in cases
of continuing trespass the measure of
damages was difficult to ascertain
and that the injunction was not to
restrain the liberty of the appellants
but to prevent lawlessness.
