Enjoined
From Raising
lntrastate Rate
so New York Railways Hit
by Two Temporary Orders
From Justice Cropsey in
Brooklyn Supreme Court
Companies 'MotionDenied
Immediate Hearing Given to
Defendants, Who Seek to
Have Ruling Set Aside

Not railroad operating trains with
in the State of New York will be able
tc raise its intrastate fares until .he
determination of motions by attorn ays
for the commonwealth for permanent
ihjunctions against such procedure.
This situation, which may cost rail-
road systems under that classification
thousands of dollars, was brought
about late Friday, when Justice James
c. Cropsey, in the Brooklyn Supreme
Court, signed two orders containing
temporary njunctions, which restrain
the roads from making increases More
than fifty companies are hit by the
ruling.
Denies Railways Motion
Injunction papers were served upon
attorneys for the railroads yesterday
afternoon and as soon as they were
received the attorneys got in touch
with Justice Cropsey and persuaded
him to give immediate hearing to mo-
tions to set aside the injunctons. He
heard the motions in his chambers
last night and denied them.
There could be no question, he said,
o. the right Of the Attorney General TO
bring the action, and the loss of the
railroads in consequence of the con-
tinuance of the lover rates would not
be siilciently great to counterbalance
the clear necessity Of protecting the
public interest. This final decision of
Justice Cropscy left hose who applied
for the lnjunctions in complete pos
session of the field.
The application was made to Justice
Cropsey by Assistant Attorney General
Edward Griffin, representing Attorney
General Charles D. Newton, who an
nounced the dec sion yesterday, and the
two orders are made out in thc name Of
the people of the State Of New York

Right to Serve Summons on
Parties Outside the State

MINDEN, New. Nov. 27.-Arguments
began in the District Court here to-day
to quash the suit the state filed to set
aside the divorce granted Mary Pick
ford from Owen Moore. Miss Pickford,
since her divorce was granted last
March 2, has been married to Douglas
Fairbanks, and in the states petition
was referred to as GLADYS M. Moore,
known as Gladys NJ. Fairbanks"
The proceedings OF the day did not
go to the merits Of the controversy as
raised by the state, namely that Mary
Pickford's divorce decree was secured
as u result of fraud and through col
lusion between herself and Owen
Moore. The matter to-day came on
motion to quash the service of sum-
mons on the ground tha tthe court had
no Jurisdiction because The parties IN
interest all were served outside the
state.
Attorneys on both sides admitted
mat no matter what the courts ruling,
the case will be carried to the State
