Injunction Issued.

The proceedings against the officers OF
the labor union were Oegun Aug. -, 1907.
by the stove and range company. After
a comprehensive hearing, Justice Gould
of the supreme court of the District of
Columbia issued temporary injunction
restraining the defendants from prose-
cutting a boycott on the business and prod
ucts of the Buck company. Later this
injunction was made permanent.
On the appeal of the case to the court
of appeals of the District of Columbia
Alton B. Parker of New York appeared
as one of the counsel for the Federation
Of Labor.
References to the Buck Stove & Range
company continued to appear in the Fed
erationist and in speeches and writings
Of the defendants, and the company had
GompeTs. Mitchell and Morrison cited TO
appear and show cause why they should
not be punished for contempt of court.
Sentenced TO Jail.
Mr.. Gompers had openly intimated that
he would not be bound by the terms of
the injunction. After the hearing in the
contempt proceedings, Justice Wright of
the supreme court of the district found
the defendants had been guilty OF Wilfully
disObeying the injunction and sentenced
them to Imprisonment in the district Jail
In announcing the decision Justice
Wright declared that the defendants had
'intimidated, bTOwbeaten ana cOerced'
the patrons of the stove and range com
pany until it had suffered severe loss.
Pending an appeal the three defendants
We're allowed to give bail for their re-
appearance.
Last March the court Of appeals modi-
fled the decree granted by the supreme
court of the District of Columbia by add
ing to the injunction the words, "in fur
therance Of said boycott"
The modification was looked upon by at
torneys for the defendants as materially
affecting the proceedings for contempt
They claimed that had those words ap-
peared in the original injunction the CON
tempt proceedings never could have been
decided against them.

COURT Of APPEALS
AGAINST GOMPERS

Full View of the Labor
Leaders.
ONE DISSENTING JUSTICE
CONTEMPT CASES WILL BE AP-
PEALED TO SUPREME COURT.
ONE DISSENTING JUSTICE

Washington, Nov 2.-The district court
of appeals today affirmed the decision of
the supreme court of the District of Co
lumbia, adjudging President Samuel Com
pers, Secretary Frank Morrison and Vice
President John Mitchell of the American
Federation of Labor, guilty of contempt OF
court in the Buck Stove & Range case.
Chief Justice Sheppard dissented from
the opinion of the court on constitutional
q ounds.
The court held that the fundamental is
sue was whether the executive agencies
government should be Obeyed or def1ed-
The mere fact that the defendants were
the officers of organized labor in America,
said the court lent Importance TO the
cause and added to the gravity Of the
situation. but it should not be permitted
to influence the result.
Subject to the Law.
eff an organization of citizens, how
ever large" the court held, may dis
obey the mandates Of the court, the same
reasoning would render them subject to
individual defiance. Both are subject
to the law and neither is above it. If
citizen, though he may honestly believe
his rights have been invaded, may elect
when and to what extent he will obey
the mandates of the court and the re-
Guirements of the law as interpreted by
the court, instead Of pursuing the or
derby course of appeal, net only the courts
but government itself would become pow
eTless and society would be reduced to a
state of anarchy"
The action of the supreme court of the
District of Columbia in sentencing Com
pers, Mitchell and Morrison to twelve.
nine and six months Imprisonment in
Jail. respectively, was the result of the
failure of these three defendants to obey
the order Of the court directing them to
desist from placing the Buck Stove &
Range company of St. Louis on their
unfair list in the prosecution of their
boycott against the corporation.
Boycott Kept Alive.
While the name of the corporation was
removed from the unfair list Of the Fed
Grafton. Messrs. GOmpers and Mitchell
continued to keep alive the boycott by
frequent reference to il IN the Fedora
ZIONIST, the official organ of the FEEDER
alton.
Mr.. Morrison was involved in the trou-
bic by reason of his membership on the
executive board Of the Federation and
because it was alleged he made no effort
to prevent the adoption OF the resolution
at the convention of the United Mine
Workers of America in antagOnism to the
Buck Stove & Range company. The puT-
pose Of the boycott, it was said, was
to cause a decline in the business of the
stove and range company of 30 per cent.
The boycott placed by the Federation
against the products of the Buck com
pany grew out of a fight made by the
Metal POlishers' union and supported by
the Federation for an eight instead Of
nine-hour day. This was resisted by the
stove company, and the Federationist
published the name of the Buck Stove &
Range company under the caption Of I'VE
Don't PatTOnize.

Municipal Affairs
OPPOSE FIRE HOUSE
SITE IN THIRD WARD
WANT STATION LOCATED IN
BUSINESS DISTRICT
Council Paid One=Third More
Than Property Selected
Is Worth

The fire department is experiencing
difficulty on every hand in its efforts
TO locate fire engine houses in the resi-
dence district. A number of property
owners in the Third ward appeared
before the fire commission yesterday to
protest against a site selected on Reno
street. near Sixth. This delegation was
headed by Fred F. Wheeler.
The principal protest against the site
is that it is in the midst of a fine resi-
dence district and that the property
owners do not want an engine house
located in that place, as it depreciates
the value of the property for residence
purposes. They suggested that lot
on First street, near Reno be secured,
as that locality is a business district
and much in need of fire protection.
But the complaint against the loca-
ton of the lot was only one of the OBJ
jections raised. The protestants de-
clared the land committee of the coun-
Gil had paid a third more for this lot
than it is worth. They said it had
been purchased for $55 a front foot,
while no property in the immediate vi
cinity was held of greater value than
$40 front foot.
Because of the large number of com
plants made against the selections of
the land committee the fire commission
yesterday asked the council to submit
the lots selected to the commission be-
fore final action is taken.

Superintendent Morley Files with
Commission Report Making sue-
qestions for Identification
of Los Angeles

In a written report filed yesterday
with the park commission John Nor
ley, superintendent of parks, makes a
number of recommendations for the
Improvement of the city's park sys-
tenn.
A movement is on foot to secure the
entire Arroyo Seco for park purposes
under the new state law which makes
it possible to assess the cost of such
parks to the property benefited. Mr.
Morley recommends that the park COM
mission give all the encouragement pos
sible to this project.
The park department should take ac-
ton to secure certain property adjoin-
ing several parks, says Mr.. Morley
The area at the northwest corner OF
Sunset park should be added to that
breathing spot. thirty acres adjoining
Eastlake park on the north and south
should be gathered in and thirty-five
acres adjoining Elysian park on tile
south are already in course of con-
demnation for park purposes.

COUNClLMEN WILL VISIT
HOG RANCH AT VERNON
To Make Personal Investigation of
Conditions Complained of by
Sixth Ward Residents

Members of the city council will go
to Vernon this morning to investigate
the hog feeding against which the
citizens of the lower part of the Sixth
ward complain. The stencil from these
hog ranches, which are said to contain
more than 10000 hogs, is so overpower-
ing that the value of residence property
in the vicinity is greatly deprecated.
The matter of garbage specifications
will come before the council this after
noon for consideration, and the hog
feeding process is one of the matters
TO be considered. The specifications now
require that no garbage may be hauled
to hog pens less than one mile from
the city limits. Several members of the
council believe the minimum distance
should be two miles.

DEMONSTRATION TO
BE GIVEN AT BIMINI
Water Expert Will Show Pupils of Los
Angeles How to Proceed in
Cases of Aquatic
Accidents

The students of the Los Angeles
high school, the Girls Collegiate, the
Westlake, Marlborough, Urban, Pages
and several other schools will be given
an instructive and entertaining demon
stration tomorrow morning at the Bim-
mi baths by Prof. Frederick H. Kill
lick, late student of Europe and spe-
cialist on the resuscitation of those
apparently drowned. The demonstra
ton will show how to be useful in
boating, bathing and marine disasters,

grasping and caring for those nearly
drowned, how to throw off a person
who frantically clutches you in the
water and how one may be of use in
accidents in water, even il he cannot
swim.
Mr.. Killick is taking up the problem
of educating the public school children
in this most important subject. He
states that hundreds of lives are an
nually lost purely through the ignor-
ance of the general public.
Besides the especially invited schools
the general public will also be admit
ted. The demonstration will be begun
at 10 O'clock a. m. Among the special
features one of the young women of
the professors swimming class will he
thrown into the plunge, fully dressed,
and after showing she is able to remain
on the surface of the water for period
of five minutes supported by the air
in her clothing, she will proceed to
show a method of saving herself by
removing her skirts and taking off her
shoes in the water.
w. A. Abegg, the quarter mile Swiss
champion swimmer of the coast, will
take part in the demonstration.
