ORDER
AGAINST RAILROAD
UNIONS SUSTAINED!
Federal Judge Declares Defen-
dants Failed TO Reply to
Many Accusations.

CHICAGO, Sept. 90. = Judge
James H. Wilkerson today granted
Attorney General Daugherty's petI.
ton for a nationwide temporary in.
junction against the striking rail.
way shopmen.
Judge Wilkerson, in a lengthy re.
view Of the case, said the defend.
ants could not deny knowledge and
responsibility for the widespread
violence which has marked the
strike.
In this statement Judge Wiki
erson spoke as follows:
/ None of the defendants In this
case has answered the bill. Two
have presented affidaylts !, which
81 8 ] NOR n ~, 4 !, .ll
sments OF the Bill unehalienSetl on
the record: The fact that the de-
PENDANTS have been acting in COM
bination is not denied. On. the
contrary the defendants them
selves have produced evidence OF
the closest association and COOP
Grafton on the part Of the defend
ant organization. That officers Of
the unions gave directions con-
corning the strike from the outset
Is likewise admitted. The only ma
terial question really in dispute
on record is the responsibility of
the defendants for a number Of
unlawful acts shown to have been
committed. the most Of them by
unknown parties.
Notwithstanding the warn.
lngs against acts Of violence issu.
ed June 1922, there began through
the country a series OF depreda-
tons which rapidly developed IN
some portions into a reign OF ter.
ror. Railroad bridges we're dyna-
mited, spikes removed from rails,
distractions were placed upon
railroad tracks, bombs were ex-
ploded on tracks and in railroad
tracks and hurled at moving
trains. Employees were insulted,
assaulted and otherwise intimid.
ated. The word OF the peaceful
picket spoken in the vicinity Of
the shop was emphasized IN the
darkness OF night by clubs and
;; pistol of the unknown party.
Regardless Of the instructions
that no injury must be inflicted
upon property, there was sabo.
tage on a large scale. Engines, cars
and equipment were tempered with
and innumerable attacks OF mis-.
chief committed which endangered
the lives Of both passengers ana
those operating trains.
"These unlawful acts are shown
to have been on such a large scale
and in point Of time and place so
connected with the admitted CON
duct OF the strike that It Is impos.
sible on the record here to view
them in any other light than is
done in furtherapce Of a common
purpose and as part Of a plan"
