Page Seeks to Enjoin Russell from
Holding Meeting,

Boston, May 16.-The contest be-
tween Vice President l.. Coues Page
and President William II. Russell of
the Boston National Baseball club
over the control of the organization
came up in the superior court today in
a bill In equity in which Page seeks to
enjoin Russell from holding a meet
ing OF the club tomorrow, at which it
is proposed to change the bylaws and
increase the number of directors.
The bill was brought on the ground
that an effort was being made to Gust
Page from the club. Counsel for
President Russell announced his in
tention of filing a demurrer which
would raise the question of the right OF
one partner to enforce a contract
against another
Judge Pierce expressed doubt
whether such contract could be en-
forced under any circumstances but
will hear arguments on it tomorrow
