District Court Grants Petition ot Company ‘for Fro- tection of Its Employes, Property and Business—Rail- road Labor Board Has Ceased Its Efforts for Settlement of Strike—Announcement Made by Chairman !'looper of Failure to Reconcile the Views of the Railroad Ex- ecutives and Labor Leader. New Haven, July 19.—Judge Edwin S. Thomas, of the United States district court tonight issued a temporary restrain- ing order on a petition of the New York, New Haven and Hartford raflroad to pre- vent strikers from interfering with its employes. porperty and business. The order was asked for by Charles S. Shease, genera! solicitor of the road, at the home of Judge Thomas in Norwalk. The date of the hearing was set for July 29 in the United States court at New Haven, when both sides will be gtven an opportunity to present their ver- sion of the matter. The restraining or- dér is Qirectad against all unions or men on strike against the New Haven road. John C. Ready, representative of the striking raiircad men, was surprised when informed by an Associated Pr corre- spondent that an order of this nature had been asked for and granted. He said he had heard nothing about it and refused to comment on the matter until he was further informed to its nature. In a lengthy statement tonight the company defended its action, declaring that it wanted the protection of the fed- sral courts against violence on the part of the strikers. The statement alleges that July 1 varlous wrongs have committed in violation of the law” and recites a number of alleged acts said to have been committed by the strikers. In some cases, the statement says, strikers have worn masks and thyeatened em- ployes as they were leaving trains, and that wives of employes had been threat- sned. It also asserts that property has been damaged by the strikers. “The company cannet and will not sub- mit" the statement continues, “to a con- tinuance of these abuses and violations. Its duty is clear to protect to the extent of its ability, not only the passengers wnd property committed to its care, but ulso the employes who are engaged in carrying safely such passengers. and property. “No one denies the right of an employe to quit work for whatever reason seems good to him.

P.)— Failure of all efforts to bring about the wttlement of the country-wide strike of h railway shopmen, was announced in a statement issued tonight by Ben W. Hooper, chalrman of the United States railroad labor board. “As there does not seem to be any probability of reconciling the antipodal views of the carriers and the men on the question at Issue, the labor board and 30me of its members are now engaged in any further efforts along that line," the stagement sald. At the same time the statement pointed sut that virtual agreement had beelt ssached between the rail heads and the strike leaders on all of the five points in #ispute except that of the return to the strikers of thelr senlority rights—a juestion which was not originally in dis- Jute between the ro#ds and their men. Rallroad executives, through the west- s presidents’ committee of public re- ‘ations o fthe Assoclation of Railway Ex- scutives, issued a stafement tonight cor- roborating Chairman Tooper's state- ment that mo further peace conferences were being held .and that the senority lssue was the principal stumbling block. “There are now no conferences in progress looking to. a settlement, of the shop ecrafts’ strike” the executives' statement sald. “Chairman Hooper of ‘he labor board has held informal con- lerences with some railway executives, but these have had no Its and are now at an end. “Since the strike was called the so- called question of ‘seniority rights’ has arisen and has now become one of im- portance.” Chairman Hooper's statement sald that a conference was held Saturday between B.

In doing . this, Mr. Hooper said, the carriers endeavored to replace the men who quit the service and assert- »4 that they promised eficient men perm- nent omployment and fair treatment aft. »r the strike §s over and cannot recede trom these obligation. “They also state,” Mr. Hooper continued, “that to give the returning strikers preference over. the men mow employed would merely en- sourage the recurrente of strikes.: The carriers, he sald, have promised 1o employ men who have been out. on strike if they have not been gullty of beeaches of peace and the destruction,of seoperty, but refused to give them street car men.
