DRASTIC REFORMS BY Court
UNITED STATES JUDGES ARE
LIMITED IN REGARD TO IN
JUNCTION PROCEEDING.
New Rules Embody Points Urged by
Labor Leaders-First Revision
in Many Years.

Washington.-In promulgating the
first revision of the equity rules OF
Federal courts in the last fifty years,
the Supreme court Of the United
States prohibited the granting OF pre-
liminary injunctions without notice,
and restricted the granting of tempo
rary restraining orders. The court EN-,
bodied in the new rule many OF the
points Of the Clayton anti-injunction
bill, for which labor leaders have been
fighting, which has passed the house
and waits in the senate. y
Instead of temporary restraining or
ders being issued without notice upon
presentation to a Federal judge on
general allegations that immediate
and irreparable damage is about to
be inflicted, and the new, rule re-
quires thta it must be shown by spe-
-cifc facts set forth in affdavits, or
otherwise, that such damages will re-
suit. When a temporary restraining
order is issued a hearing on the in
junction must be given within ten
days. Heretofore no time limit was
fixed by the rules and often not by
the courts.
The court went still FARTHER and pro-
vided that those restrained may come
into court within two days mad be
heard with expedition on a motion to
dissolve the restraining order. The
new rules do not require those pro.
curing the restraining order to give a
bond or the judge to set forth in the
order his reasons for granting 1t.
These were provisions in the Clayton
bill.
Chief Justice White did not refer to
the anti-injunction rule in announcing
the changes in the old rules, but did
emphasize the statement that the re.
vision was designed to simplify pro-
cedure and remove delays and reduce
cost. The antique form of pleading
is abrogated in the new rules for the
modern forms of "code," states
judges are required, with few excep-
tons, to do so, and appellate courts
authorized more generally to dispose
Of suits instead of reversing on imma-
terial errors.

to embezzle $4,000 of his employers

ney for the Harvester company, caus'
ed Poland's arrest on the charge OF
having embezled S1,5O0- Judge
Greene said Poland admitted this
speculation, and that admission OF
other thefts brought the total amount
up to $4,000.
The speculations are alleged to
have begun early in 1911, and con
tinued until early in October, when
Aubrey E. Ambrose, travelling auditor
of the company, arrived in San Fran
cisco and began an Investigation Of
Poland's accounts. Poland is held at
the city prison, in default Of $4,000
mail. .
According to Judge Greene, Poland
invested money in a number Of NOV
ing picture houses and in a San Fran
cisco saloon, which was deliberately
fitted up. ~
There is no evidence Of Poland's
money having been spent in riotous
living" said Greene. Poland has
lived extravagantly, but generally it
appears to be a case of desiring to
attain sudden riches. He sought to
become a moving picture magnate."

Governor Wilson Spied the. Snake and
Captain Mcdonald Attacked
Wilson Going to Bermuda.

Princeton, n. J.-President-elect
Woodrow Wilson turned away an av
alanche of kilograms and messages
Of congratulation the day after the
election and went off for a brisk
walk. For five miles he walked,
swinging a heavy black cane, which
came to grief on the fourth mile,
when Capt. '"Bill' Mcdonald, Texas
ranger and bodyguard, tried to kill
a rattlesnake.
The governor spied the snake curl
ing through the leaves and pointed II
out to the captain, who borrowed the
governors cane mad killed it, but in
doing so broke the cane.
The governors walk exh1larated
him, he said. The strain of the cam.
paign and the excitement Of election
day had kept him pretty much in
doors of late. 1t was with a long
stride and vigorous swing that he
set out from his home and out
through the university campus to
the wooded stretches Of country to
the south of Princeton. AS he pass
ed through the campus, students
dotted their caps as they did Of old
for him and do yet to members OF
the faculty, one of the time-honored
customs of the university.
The president-elect stopped at Uni
versity field and saw the Varsity
eleven go through secret practice"
AS he sat with Captain Mcdonald
in the empty grandstand three of the
football coaches came over to con
graduate him. They were Ross Nc
Clave, Beef" Wheeler and Joe Poe,
famous Princeton stars of years ago.
AS Governor Wilson sauntered into
open country he seemed for the first
time to relax from the strain OF the
campaign. Obviously he was happy.
He swished his way through the sea
of autumn-tinted leaves. He TESTED
with the correspondents and moved
along merrily as if it were the hap
piest day Of his life.
Professors and their wives waylaid
him as he turned his steps through
the town and congratulated him.
Many little children came running to
meet him. He stopped and shook
hands with the little folks as well
as their elders.
It. was shutdown when he reached
his home. There he received the
correspondents in his study. I'm
afraid there is not going to much
news nowadays" he said, but one of
the reporters remarked that some
newspapers already were publishing
the probable personnel of his cabi'
net.
Then I guess I had better not
read the newspapers" he said laugh
ingly, 80 as not to prejudice my
mind" He was asked if he had any
further statement to make about his
election. - .
"I'm done with statements" he
said with a smile. "Now, I'm going
to do a lot of thinking: not that l
haven't done so already; but there
will be a better opportunity now to
think out the solution of problems
that are to be met .
