Coach Lunch Service by Pennssivania Railroad attendants Pennsylvania Railroad Ask Injunction Against Anti- Trust Investigation. By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, April 9.—An un- precedented legal move was made by at- torneys for nine leading motion picture corporations yesterday in a request for a restraining order to prevent a Federal grand jury investigation of alleged vio- lations of the Sherman anti-trust laws by movie combines. ’ The attorneys branded the investiga- tion “an abuse of the law.” Federal Judge Paul J. McCormick, before whom the motion was made, or- dered all grand jury witnesses to ng- pear next Wednesday morning, when, he said, he would rule on the argument. The specific objection of the attor- neys was that the investigation would duplicate the processes of law already exercised in a criminal complaint filed against their clients. They charged that the investigation was being made either to obtain additional evidence or in retaliation to the movie companies’ refusal to submit their records. Judge McCormick, accordingly, sus- pended a subpoena which would make available to the grand jury two truck- loads. of records which the companies claim could not be released because of the necessity of daily use. The companies involved were West Coast Theaters, Inc.; Paramount-Fa- mous - Lasky, Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer, First National, Universal, United Artists, Fox, Vitagraph and Pathe Pioture Cor- porations.

By the Associated Press. LINCOLN, Nebr., April 9.—Accpsed of trading wives without the formality of a divorce or marriage ceremony, Otta E. Slade, 31, and Horace Reed, 29, are being held here on an open charge pending investigation. ‘The men and their wives were arrest- ed yesterday at their homes in Bennett, near here, on complaint of neighbors and brought to Lincoln. The women were turned over to juvenile author- ities and their husbands placed in jail. According to the complaint, Slade has been living with Mrs. Reed since late in March, and Reed had been mak- ing his home in the house occupied by Mrs. Slade most of the time since the two men agreed to the exchange. So far as the authorities have been able to learn, the two wives had only a minor part in the transaction, but complied with their husbands’ wishes without serious objection, it was said. Each family has two children. Ac- cording to the alleged exchange agree- ment the wives were to retain possession of their own offspring. WAR ENTERTAINER DIES. Mrs. Eleanor Stark Stanley Is Vie- tim of Meningitis. NEW YORK, April 9 (®).—Mrs. Eleanor Stark Stanley, concert pianist and wife of James Stanley, concert bari- tone, died Sunday in Flower Hospital of cerebral meningitis. She was born in Maysville, Mo., and married Mr. Stanley in St. Louis, 24 years ago. During the World War Gen. Pershing invited Mr. and Mrs. Stanley to France, where for seven months they provided musical entertainment for RENO, Nev, April 9—Intimations that Mrs. James B. Duke, mother of Walter P. Inman, was the direct cause of the Inman divorce proceedings were brought out in the cross-examination of Mrs. Inman here yesterday on the sev- enteenth day of the Inman case, being heard in Judge Bartlett's court. Lester Summerfield, attorney for In- man, asked Mrs. Inman if she had ever felt that- Mrs. Duke was the direct cause of the divorce. Before she could reply, however, George Thatcher, Mrs. Inman's counsel, interrupted with an objection and the question went unan- swered. Summerfield then asked Mrs. Inman if she had not at some time declared that she would sue Mrs. Duke for alien- ation of affection. She denied that she had ever made the statement.- This an- swer brought a sheaf of newspapers from Summerfield's file, from which he attempted to read several alleged inter- views from Mrs. Inman. This move was blocked, however, when Mrs. Inman de- nied that she had éver permitted or di- rected her attorney to give any inter- views to the press.
