TO ENFORCE THE
ORDER Of COURT

lied to Uphold the DraS-
tic Temporary Injunction
Issued in Rail WaIkout,
MASS OF COMPLAINTS
IS BEING COLLECTED
Views of Railroad EXecu-
tiveS and Union Leaders
Regarding the Strike
Situation Are Far Apart,
By the Associated Press.

Chicago, Sept. 3.-The begin
ming Of the tenth week of the
country wide strike Of the rail-
wav shopmen found $500 United
States marshals modified to up
hold the drastic temporary IN
junction obtained by the govern
ment on Friday to prevent law
less violence and keep the ma
tion's transportation systems run
ming.
From Chicago as center Of
railroad activities, was directed
the work of enforcing the in
junction pending the hearing to
make it permanent on September
Il.
A mass of complaints and alle-
cations of conspiracy and at
tempts to ruin property and Jeop-
ardize life were being collected
today for the use of Attorney
General Daugherty in support OF
his application to make the in
junction permanent. 1t will not
be alleged that the strikers are
guilty in most of the outbreaks
of violence reported, but the
government, it was said, will
maintain that actions of the
strikers or strike leaders caused
the violence.
Extra Deputies Sworn In.
Extra forces of deputies have
been sworn in by United States
Marshal Robert r. Levy and are
being dispatched to railroad shops
and terminals to watch for acts
forbidden by the order handed
down by Federal Judge Wilker-
son. A thousand writs were pre-
pared in the federal building and
sent to all parts of the country
for service on the labor leaders
named in the injunction. B. M.
Jewell, head of the shopmen,
could not be found and it was
reported that he was in the east.
John Scott, secretary of the shop
men, remained at his desk at the
union headquarters.
II haven't violated any law"
he said This organization never
did sanction or condone violence.
But we are going to carry on the
work of the organization without
fear or tremor, and I don't be-
leve the injunction is intended to
restrain us from so doing"
Meanwhile three different pic
lures of conditions on the rail-
roads were painted by western
s,tr, l.,
and union leaders.
Moving the Business.
eve are moving the business;
our men are coming back to
work in increasing numbers. gem
eral conditions are steadily i'm
proving and the strike is broken"
was the concensus of opinion of
the executives.
Federal officials, busiIy en-
gagged compiling the list of acts
OF violence for the hearing on
making permanent the injunc-
ton, pointed to the petition pre-
sented in court by the attorney
general in which he declared that
half the locomotives in the coun-
try had been tampered with and
that more than 1000 mail trains
had been cancelled.
Unions reiterated previous
statements that if the strike con-
tinue the railways would be par
alyzed within 80 days.
In connection with the ap-
pointment during the past two
days of marshals and deputies,
the following statute was cited by
officials of the department of
Justice being section number 7SS:
THE marshals and their depu-
ties shall have in each state the
same powers in executing the
laws of the United States as sher-
ifs and their deputies in such
state may have by in law in exc
cutting tho laws thereof"
Power of Chief Executive.
Still further explaining the
power of the chief executive. fed
eral officials quoted a decision
by the supreme court as follows
$50 if the president or the
postmaster general is advised that
the mails of the United States,
possibly carrying treasure, are H.
able to be robbed and the mail
carriers assaulted and murdered
IN any particular region of the
country, who can doubt the au-
thority of the president or of one
of the executive departments to
provide a sufficient guard, wheth-
or it be by soldiers Of the army
or by marshals of the United
States" -..- ..-
