The writ was served on Is members of this union body and carries with it for violation of any of it's provisions, a penalty of s5,000 fine. The specific acts alleged in the com plaint were sworn to by Supt John T. Hanton of the Manhasset Mfg. Co.,, whose attorney, John F. Carpenter. made application for the restraining injunction.
 Oliver Christian, organizer for the union, who had charge of the local situation until Sunday night, deelar' ed that there had been no such acts as alleged. and that on the contrary the workers, not at their regular em- ployment, had conducted themselves in a peaceable and orderly manner.

It is reported that a mo- tion will be flied shortly asking the Superior court to dissolve the tenn oorary injunction which Judge Avery granted.
 Serve More Ejeetment Writs
 Last week Thursday, eight writs of ejectment were served upon men on strike who, with their families, live in mill tenements in Manhasset Village Since then more than 40 more have been served. In all better than 50 ejectments have been served, but as some of those who received the notic' es have returned to work, all of the writs are not operative. It was stat. ed at the office this morning that about 35 of the writs are still in eff feet.
 The original eight writs call foi removal from tenements next Mon day. Officials of the Manhasset Mfg Go. state that as much as they regret 1t, they will have to allow the eject ment proceedings to follow theiI course. This being the case, sheriff notices will be served on Monday, and six days afterward the people so serv' ed must remove their effects or else the sheriff will have the household goods taken out and deposited or the sidewalk.
 The Manhasset Go. has people ready to come to Putnam to take the place of those who refuse to go to work, Il was stated at the mill office, and a, no tenements are available for suct people, the Manhasset Co. must pro vide homes for them. For this reason and none other, 1t is declared, tho ejectment proceedings will have te run their course, as displeasing as th'' will be to all parties concerned strikers and mill executives alike.
 In all probability, no legal step: will be taken by the union to try and prevent the execution of the eject ment writs. This decision was reach ed, it is stated, after union oificer' | talked the matter over with counsel l The union will, however, according tS | General Secretary O'Connell, taks care of all union members who ar, elected from their homes. They wil l be provided for in some manner no decided upon st this moment. Rul what the disposition will be of furni ture deposited ou the sidewalk, IS an other question, according to MT. O Cornell. He intimates that 1t ma, become q charge on the city, owing t' the obstruction of sidewalks.
 Strike benefits were paid this weei ! for the first time 10 those who request ed them. No stated sums were al 1 lowed, each ease being dealt with or ! it's merits. The size of the family o' the striker governed the strike com pensation. Regular weekly strik.' ] benefits will become operative to al strikers in another week. it is stated Secretary O'Connell states that ther' is plenty of money available to ssS the strikers to maintain their hgh indefinitely, if necessary. sympa thizers at wauregan sent $l00 to thu union on Monday.
