END Uf nAIItRS' CASE MAY BE TWO
 YEARS IN FUTURE
DANIEL DAVENPORT DISCUSSES FUTURE OF FAMOUS LITIGATION.
Special to The Farmer.)


 Washington, Feb. 25.-Attorney Daniel Davenport, of Bridgeport, Conn.,, is in this city watching the progress of the eight hour bllI and anti-injunction measures which are heing pushed by the labor organiza- tions and opposed by the organized manufacturers. MT Davenport CN- plained to congressman, a number of times, the status of the matters case.
 It seems March there will be arguments before Judge Platt in Hartford, as to the damages. The Ia Dor men will argue that the fine of $74,O00 is excessive, and it is the right of Judge Platt to decide that the fine is too large and order a new trial, or affirm the judgment. Tie question of the assessment of the costs will also come up at this time.
 Should the labor unions lose, aId the judgment be affirmed, an appeal will lie to the Circuit Court of Ap- peals. This court can review ti4e trial below, but can only render a de- cision as to errors in the admission ar rejection Of evidence or in the judges charge. Excessive damages may also be assigned as an error. The unions must file bond equal to the amoul.t of the fine, in case an appeal is taken, and the court will have to go over all the evidence taken in the lower court.
 There is also an appeal from the Circuit Court of Appeals to the Su preme Court of the United States, on the same grounds as to the Court of Appeals, and should the labor unions decide to fight to the last resort, It may be two years before the case is finally settled. Davenport does not know whether the case will go up to the Supreme Court or not, but of course his side stands ready to fight it to finish.
 Davenport thinks this case is the most decisive ever rendered in a fed :. eral court touching on the Sherma antitrust law, and that the effect of the decision will be most far reach ing. Congress is watching the final outcome, and some legislation may grow out of the case after it is dis posed of.
