WOULD ENJOIN COMMISSION.
Railway Companies object to Giving
Data Called For.
naov IT.


PHILADELPHIA, July 25.-The Penn
sylvania and Lehigh Valley railroad
companies today filed bill in equity in
the United States circuit court praying
for an Injunction to restrain the inter-
state commerce commission from taxi
ing any further proceedings in pursu-
ance Of their order Of March 3, 1908. to
enforce the act OF Congress Of March 4,
1907. which went into effect March 4,
1908, entitled IAN act to promote safety
of employees and travellers on railroads
by limiting the hours of service of en-
ployes thereon"
The petition which the two railroad COM
panies. through their attorney, John G.
Johnson. presented to the court alleges
that the order of the interstate commerce
commission is that the two companies
should, within thirty days from each
month. mako detailed report Of all in
stances where trainmen, employees of the
railroads, had been on duty for longer
periods than the time prescribed by the
act of Congress. or had not laid of for
the number of hours prescribed by the
act
The bill denies the power of the inter-
state commerce commission to make such
an order, and alleges that the purpose of
1t Is to get evidence to lay before the
United States district attorney in crimi-
nal suits. thus to compel railroads to fur
nfsh evidence against themselves for
breaking the law.
