PER CURIAM:

     Karen Hobbs and Diane Markman McClard appeal the denial of

their motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary

injunction in this action alleging in conclusory terms various acts

of gender discrimination by their employer, Prince William County

(Virginia).   After a hearing, the district court denied the motion
for interlocutory injunctive relief, principally for failure to

demonstrate any irreparable injury from the conduct seemingly chal-

lenged.   Reviewing that decision for abuse of discretion, we have

carefully considered the briefs and record and, finding no abuse of
discretion, affirm essentially on the reasoning of the district

court.    Hobbs et al. v. Prince William County, C.A. No. 97-538-A
(E.D. Va. April 21, 1997).

                                                          AFFIRMED
