On application of attorneys repre-
senting the Georgia & Florida railway,
Judge w. B. Sheppard, of the United
States court, yesterday issued a tenn
porary injunction restraining the
striking engineers and flremen and
fering with the operation of trains
along the line. oct. 10th is the date
set for the strikers to show cause in
Valdosta why the order should not be
made permanent.
The application came as a sequel to
kilograms received by Judge Sheppard
Thursday. J. z. Harper, of the rail-
way counsel. arrived from Valdosta,
Ga, early yesterday morning and with
w. A. Blount appeared before the court
at noon and applied for the injun ction,
which was granted after the attOr-
neys had recited acts of violence COM
mitted during the past week or ten
days, and which interfered with the
railway in handling interstate COM
merce and the United States mails.
1t was recited by Mr.. Harper that
trestles had been burned, employees
taken from engines and beaten, freight
trains held up by force and men COM
PEELED to leave the employ Of the road
through intimidation on the part of
the strikers and their sympathizers.
While the bill did not set forth SUCH,
it was stated by counsel that the strike
grew out of a dispute between the en-
gineers and firemen and the railway
over the demand Of the former for
higher wages and dismissal of all ne
gro firemen from the road. A request
for a conference was made by the dis
satisfied men, and such had been
agreed upon when the men walked out
without awaiting its result. They
then demanded, it is alleged, that they
ne furnished transportation from
points along the line where they quit
work to Augusta, but this was refused
by the local agents Of the railway on
the grounds that 1t would be q viola
ton of the interstate commerce laws
to furnish transportation to parties not
in the employ of the railway. where
upon the striking employees ere alleged
TO have served notice on the railway
that no trains would be allowed to run
and the acts of violence began.
The railway men claim that the
trouble could have been avoided and
the demands adjusted but for the pre-
mature and Ill advised attitude of the
leaders Of the strikers.

Pocatello, Idaho, Oct. 6.-Critics of
the United States supreme court We're
bitterly assailed by President Taft here
today when he asserted anew his
views as to the relations of govern
ment to business.
when a court is doing it's duty,
when 1t is trying to interpret the law
as it ought to be, to have 1t con-
6emned and attacked and it's motives
questioned for mere political purposes
without any solid ground for attack,
it goes to my heart and l resent it
with deep Indignation" declared the
president.
He asserted he had failed to receive
an answer to his challenge to w. J.
Bryan and other publicists to cite any
case of restraint of trade which ought
to be condemned and which would not
be condemned under the supreme
courts Interpretation of the anti trust
law in the Standard Oil and tobacco
trust cases.
What distinguishes this country
from any other one" said the presi-
dent, "is the supreme court that we
have, that often has stood between us
and errors that might have been COM
mitted that would have been greatly
injurious to this country, and to turn
upon that court and to question Its
motives seems to me to lay the very
root of our civilization"
Mr.. Taft referred to the supreme
courts disposal of the Standard Oil and
tobacco company cases as two great
decisions"
"They were two of the greatest
trusts that existed" he said, "and In
the working out OF the decree the court
had to make a remedy. The Standard
Oil Company presented all the phases
of illegality and criminality necessary
to enable a monopoly, at a time when
they did not feel the necessity for con-
cealing their methods or their mo-
tiVes.
THE tobacco trust represented an
organization made in anticipation of
the operation OF the law, helped out
by the advice of cunning lawyers in
order to avoid It's operation. But
against them both the decree of the
supreme court has been pronounced"
ITO one in my place." said the pres

Jacksonville, Fla, Oct 6.-Suit for
the recovery of $4,000, 900 damages was
filed today in the United States court
here against the SeabOard Air Line
Railroad, the Knickerbocker Trust Co.
of New Yok, and Charles H. Keep,
Francis Henderson, R. V. Matthews,
c. w. Lucas and Frank Q. Brown of
New York. and H. Reiman Duval, of
New Jersey, the plaintiffs being the
Florida Railway Company. Geo. NJ,
Powell, a stockholder of the railroad,
instituted the suit by filing precipe, a
conspiracy being charged against the
defendants.
United States Senator La Toilette,
of Wisconsin, has started an investiga-
ton to ascertain whether the Sherman
antitrust law has been violated.
The Knickerbocker Trust Company
was selected as trustee for the bonds
of the railroad, and designated as fl
nancial agent of the bonds, which had
been sold to French capitalists. The
bonds were for an extension of the
road from Fernandina to jacksonville.
Later in the proceedings, 1t is charged,
the purchasers of the bonds demanded
their delivery, which was delayed by
the KniCkerbocker Trust Co, first one
excuse and then another being made.
The demands of the railroad officials
for a return of the bonds it is alleged,
were also refused.
1t is claimed the actions of the
Knickerbocker Trust Co. was insti-
gated by two directors of that firm
who, 1t is alleged, also were directors
of the Seaboard and interested in keep
ing the Florida Railway out of Jack
sonvilIe and Fernandina. 1t is held by
the directors of the Florida Railroad
that by the alleged attempt to pre-
vent the delivery of the bonds and
completion of the Florida railroad to
an Atlantic port, the trust company
and the Seaboard conspired to restrain
trade and commerce.
