He added: *“And this time we'll make sure that all the technicalities ave observed and that the stenographers don’t make any errors in Lawyers on Case. The New Haven road was repre« sented by George D. Watrous, C. M. Sheafe, Jr., and Norman Buckingham, the last two mentioned being of the legal staff of the company. The men who had been enjoined were repr: sented by C. J. Danaher of Meriden and Arthur O’Keefe of West Haven. Strikers’ Arguments, The hearing opened at 11 o'cloek. Mr. Danaher at once asked for dis- missal of the entire proceedings om the ground of lack of jurisdiction. He then filed a motion giving specifically the reasons for it. Mr. Danaher said that the subjoenas issued bore the date of July 20 while the restraining order was dated July 19. The former called the men to appear in court on the 19th and Mr. Danaher claimed that for this reason they were with. out effect in law. He claimed that any subsequent proceedings under the restraining order were illegal. Mr. Danaher cited cases to support his contentions. He also maintained that no preliminary injunction could issme under the conditions he had cited un- less it was shown that great and {irs reparable damage had been doné which was not the case. He also claimed that the restraining order had taken rights from citizens without due process of law. He further said that the name of each defendant should have been in a separate writ which was not the case and there- fore the restraining order was with. out effect in law. Allegations Not Verified. In concluding his argument Mr. Danaher said that the allegations of the company of wrongdoing intimida- tion and coercion had not beén prop- erly verified; that the original com- plaint had been signed by E. J. Pear- son as president of the N. Y, N. H. and H. raflroad and that Mr. Pearson said that he “believed these things to |be true whereas they were based on reports submitted to him by men on the system. Mr. Danaher said that his simple statement of belief was not sufficient on which to base the re- straining order. Mr. Danaher took up the picketing angle saying that the restraining or- der had prevented the strikers from picketing and claimed that in view of this the court has over-stepped its au. thority and had placed the matter of a restraining order outside its jurisdic- tion Replies For Company. Mr. Sheafe, for the company, re« plied to Mr. Danaher and saild at the poenas was a clerk's error that the date should have been the 29th as the restraining order of the 20th set forth that the hearing on the matter of a temporary injunction was to be on that date. Mr. Sheafe said that the argument and claim of Mr. Dan- aher were "highly technical and fu- tile.” He said the New Haven road was anxious to proceed with the hearing and that it paid no attention to & “clérk’s” typographical error. As to Mr. Danaher's claim that “hearsay” was the basis of the com- plaint the railroad was ready to show “a hundred cases of assault, intimi- dation and coercion on men actually at work." First Order On July 19. The New Haven road secured a re- straining order from Judge Thomas on July 19. Subpoenas against 52 in- dividuals were issued on the 20th, summoning them to court on July 189, The date should have read the 29th. Mr. Sheafe claimed it was merely a court clerk's typographical error and that the New Haven road desired to proceed with the case on its own merits and not to delay because of clerical errors. The hour of the filing of the original writ also was missing although it should have appeared ac- cording to the provisions of the Clay- ton act Judge Thomas in his decision, how. ever, pointed out that the question of the jurisdiction of the court was of such vital importance in all subse- quent proceedings that he was averse errors. For that reason he said he would grant the application to dismiss the case Among those served with the original subpoena were B. M. Jewell, head of the shopmen; heads of several other brotherhoods and officers of crafta which are represented among the striking shopmen on the New Havea septen. RIS WS-y v——
