BUTTERICK co. ASKS PUNIsHMENrs
Wants Big Six" Mer. Adjudged in Contempt
of Court

Justice Blanchard, in the Supreme Court, heard
argument yesterday by counsel for the Butterick
Company Oimitedj the question why officers
and members of New York Typographical Union,
s. known Big Six should not be pun
ished for criminal contempt of court in disobeying
the injunction issued by him March H. 1906
The courts order forbade the typographical union
TO interfere in any way with the business of the
company
Counsel for the company said that the labor
difficulties had cost the company about 100000 in
three years and compelled it to pass two divi-
dends. The trouble with the union grew out of
the alleged attempt of the company TO enforce the
open shop rule.
Counsel for the company stated that although
the union men had kept away from the company's
premises they had carried a circular cam
paign through the mails against il. which, he said
was in violation of the of the injunction.
Alfred ]. Talley, attorney for the union, denied
that either the letter the spirit of the courts
order had been disoheyed in the reading matter
contained in the circulars
Justice Blanchard gave counsel until July to
file briefs.
