LABOR INJUNCTIONS PUT ON GRHI,

Widespread agitation in senatorla! circles regarding the merits or de- merits of Judge Parker as a candi- date for the L, s. Supreme Court has resulted in increased attention being given 10 labor injunctions. which are involved in consideration 0. Judge Parker's fitness.
 A subcommittee Of the Senate Judiciary committee the other day reported a draft Of an anti-labor in- junction bill 10 the full committee.
 If a spirited debate on labor in Juncuons reaches the Senate floor it will deeply grieve friends of tnc injunction method, on the broad general principle that the more pup hcry IS given the injunction methods tho worse Tor Inc injunctions.
 The bill aiming 10 restrict the power Of federal judges to issue In- iunstons in labor disputes IS father d by those doughty jnsurgent field marshaIs. Senator's Norris. Blaine and Walsh. The bin would forbid the issuance Of in.uuctions until the ap- pii-ant las frs, tried existtn. methods 10 settle 8 dispute. untn hearings are hold with opportunity for cross-eXamjnauon, and until it nas bran shown that failure to ob- tain the Injunction would result m substantial and irreparabie injury" The bill also specifies that procecd- inss for contempt in violating an sn- Junction cannot be held before the judge ~ho issued the injunction.
 The latter is q most important port Of :ho 1ill Acts for which n- functions are issued are usually crimes al common law or by statute. Yet in such proceedings. under the present system single judge with- out q Jury prcsidcs. Charges Of con- tempt for violating ar injunction us- l4lly are only by affidavit without opportunity for cross-eAamination The effect is the same as fl an in- dl,idual were prosecuted for q crime . wjthou. ynJoyIng rights guaranteed . by the Constitution.
 The ,,layton acc Of 1914 vas re- 2ardeI as Magma Charta by labor. This act declared labor IS not a com modiry and tha, lhe accused in labor disputes were entitled to a trial by jury. aui that tho terms Of injunc- tons must be specific. But the Magma Char'a has failed to hold water. Lstar court rulings have made f. largely 4 clarisIcalion C. rules existing i-toro 1914. and fed eral coarrs have ruled that many acts are jnrmjda.jng and IawIcss which unionists declare are norma! and lawful

New York May 1.-The glamor- GUS career of Richard A. Garfield has inspired q bographer to a full length volume Of his life. Garfield. like a Balzac grand scigneur, was not only the most picturesque gam bier Of his era, but perhaps of all time. epitomizing the villanies of the rogue and the culture of the sCholas
 He had killed more than one man over the gaming table, served time in prison, was q debauchce and swindler Yet the Msyflowor stock from which he sprang frequently peeped throuEh. He could talk learnedly of ceramics. pictures and tapestries with all the flushed en- thusiasm of the connoisseur.,
 His closest friend was James Me Neil Whistler who was finishing d portrait Of Garfield. whom n1 call d His Reverence at Inc time Of his death. The gamblers collection Of Nhlstler's sold at public auction and was the finest extant, selling for s300,O0Q
 Garfield to a later generation is best known and remembered through the card game bearing his name. It is a touch of the ironical that it is only a gambling game in theory and that Garfield never played it. Garfield operated in New Ycrk. Saratoga and Newport.
 His most famous cstablishment, however, was in a trim brown stone front at what was then East 44th street, few steps of the avenue and hard by old Delmonico's. His clients included only Of the crem. de la creme of the Tour Hundred O. that epoch. Yet many proved Welchers.
 One sour I. Q. |. for S1&I00o was given by prominent man alive today. Play began at II o'clock when patrons in full evening dress and high hats arrived in hanson cabs. Garfield served all who were admitted q magnificent supper with vintage wines and especially made cigars. free.
 He rarely entered the gaming rooms. It was frequent raids in- spired by the firebrand Jerome tha. eventually closed the gaming house. Garfield died after a fall in q sub way III 1914 which fractured his skull. He left about 4 million, hav- ing lost many millions in stock mar ket manipulations.
