ON OFFICIALS ACTS.
Justice 0'Donoghue Refuses
to Restrain P. w. A. Aid
to Bayonne, N. J.

Asserting that purely discretionary
actions by Federal officials are not sub
1ect to judicial review, Justice Daniel
w. O'Donoghue OF District Court to-
day refused preliminary Injunction
to restrain a P. w. A. loan and grant
to the city of Bayonne, N. j., for a
$4,000,000 off-shore ship-to-rail prof.
ect in New York Bay.
At the same time, he sustained the
constitutionality of the Federal emer-
gency appropriation act of 1885 and
held that the ALLEGATION Of funds to
Bayonne was within the scope Of the
law.
Cannot Judge Actions.
Referring to P. w. A. officials who
approved the application Of the city for
the loan and grant, Justice ODon-
oghue declared:
1T is not for the court to saw wheth-
er their actions are wise or unwise;
whether this is good investment or a
bad investment. I" Actions Of
this sort by officials of the United
States are not subject to judicial ap-
proval or disapproval
This view Of the case was adopted
after a lengthy argument by three
youthful Government counsels, Ralph
Boyd, Carl F. Farbach and K. G..
Aulsbrook. The ruling today concern
ed Issuance only of preliminary in
junction. A trial will be held later on
an application for permanent in
junction, counsel stated.
100000 Loss Foreseen.
The Government attorneys told the
court issuance Of permanent in
junction would cause q loss of more
than 100000, because certain ad-
vantageous contracts must be executed
by May ! or lost 1t was for this rea-
son that they refused yesterday to pro-
ceed with trial Of the case on its merits
"a course Justice O'Donoghue had
suggested. Their refusal elected a re-
buke from the jurist.
The case involved a suit bv several
Bayonne property owners to enioin
the F. w. A. loan and grant. The
plaintiffs contended private business
enterprises would reap the principal
benefit from the project, which. thew
said, was in no sense a public work
Ihey also argued that a substantial
tax increase on Bayonne residents
would result.

surgent Gen. Mola. Basque quarters
said, however, the five lane batteries

radio message from the Basque au-
thorities of Bilbao to the Spanish
government at Bilbao which said the
city was waiting with anxiety border
Ing on despair" for the arrival of food
ships
At the same time the Basques said
their land forces had pushed the in
surgents back on the Ebar and Elor-
rlc sectors OF the siege Of Bilbao,
with 600 insurgent dead.
10 Ships in Rebel Fleet.
The insurgent feet, under the lead
OF the battleship Espana and includ-
ing the powerful fast cruisers Canarias
and Almirante Cervera, was estimated
to number 10 warships.
Just outside St. Jean de Luz, ready
to escort the fleet of little food ships
to the 3-mile limit the worlds
mightiest warship, the battle cruiser
Hood, rode at anchor.
Under the command Of the flag Of
ficer aboard the Hood was a squadron
OF B. class destroyers, including the
Blanche and the eBagle and the For
ester, which had just returned from
Bermeo-a scant few land miles west
OF Bilbao-with 200 refugees.
Mixed Cargoes Of Food.
The three freighters bound for
Bilbao were the MacGregor, the
Hamsterley and the Stambrook, each
1000 tons, flying the British nag and
carrying mixed cargoes Of food.
Best known Of the veteran skippers
was Capt. Owen Jones, called Corn
cob" to distinguish him from Potato
Jones" Of the Welsh steamer Marie
Llewellyn. Capt. "Corncob" Jones
commands the MacGregor.
The port captain here said the
other two freighters planed to 70 to
Bayonne.
0esplte tne preparations aboard the
blockade runners and the general
surge Of excitement through the har-
Dor, secrecy shrouded the activities
OF the departing ships.
Il don't know when they are 90
ing" the port captain said, "but
they say they are ready to up anchor
for Bilbao"
Ine conviction was growing here
that the three intrepid shippers of the
food fleet would succeed in running
the blockade.
Shipping circles were becoming
more and more sure that the British
government had been misled as. to
the extent to which the waters Of the
Basque coast had been mined, leading
them to refuse to convoy merchant
men within the 3-mile limit.
