 edio. Followne the filing of the

 "A telephone message from Phoenix says that Joe Dillon. L. s Marshal. had left there for this city and would assemble a group of deputies for the purpost of serving the order t1 show cause. This work win entail Cgusid. erable effort for tla reason that in ad dition to the Western Federation or ganizauon named in the complaint a bout thirty other defendants are nam ed those who had been acliEe. accord ing to the allegations made. in inter fering with the efforts of the comra ny's workmen in performing Che as sessmeut work.
 It had been hoped by the company that the application to the fedora court would not be necessary. They had been encouraged to believe by Sheriff Cash of Gr1enlee County thai the work would be permitted without the workmen being mole-ted and or tine suggestion of the sheri1 Frank Me Lain accompanied by several shit bosses went 10 Moreuci from Duncan ready to undertake the neCessarl work. They were met at Nereuci b. the sheriff and informed tha, he Ina. been in eror in telling them that the would not be mOlested and on th contrary he stated it to be his opini0. that if the work was undertaken would result in violence Go their pc. sons.
 The vOrkmeu Tepresentiu- the com panv were then taken Co EcW,a"I which is a settlement near Moreno the headquarters in the strike distric of the Western Federation Of Mue- and were informed by the officers the unions that neither the Detro Copper Company nor any of its vori men would be permitted under an circumstances or at any price to pe form the assessment work which wa necessary to be done if the cOmpau was Co protect its title to their uupl tented mining claims The company vorkmen then made am appeal direc Iy to the individual strikers but Wel told that the answer Of their organ z8tious officials was their answer
 The complaint filed today sets ol in detail the description of the minir claims and describes atr length u depredations committed by deleudan during the last two months and sin' the strike was called by Guy Mile the executive coWmitteeman of t. Western Federation Of Miners. A ter porary writ of injunction restraint and prohibiting the defendants fro destroying or damaging the proDer of the plaintiff or from soliciting a yisinp or melting others to dama' and destroy their property is asE' for. and following a hearing upon q complaint a permanent injunction asked.
 It i= generally believed here that q acti taken today marks the begi ning @ steps which will work the el Of the fton-Moreuci strike. A lar' majority of the workmen formerly ei ployed by the company are now livil at the Duncan refugee colony Whi has been maintained at the eNpen Of the mining companies and the wo men remaining at Clifton, althoue minority are now the only hindran 10 -Ih nHlNe lNHHIiifh lt N'i' 'i'tt " Their alleged acts of depreciation, violation ol the law, which the coun aoriIes have been unable to cul it now thought will be brought aaor by the federal authorities. T he us on next Friday is being an e ed with interest.
