Many affidavits and exhibits were filed on both sides and the case has been ably and ‘ex- haustively argued by eminent counsel. EMPLOYES DISSATISFIED. The question now is whether upon all of the proof before it the court should award a preliminary injunction or et aside the provisional restraining order al- ready made. The court, after fully con- sidering all the proof, finds that the state- | ments of the bill of complaint to the ef- fect that the employ their wages and conditions of service are not supported; that irrespective of the question whether the men or the commit- tee of the brotherhoods representing them first suggested the increase of wages and change of rules, the employes themselves, at and for a long time prior to the filing of the bill of complaint, were dissatisfied with their wages and conditions of ser- vice and a real difference of opinion existed between the railroad and a large majority of its employes, members of the brotherhoods, with respect to their wages, and that the defendants, as officers and committees of the brotherhoods, were fully authorized by reason of their of- ficial refation to their members and also by their written authority, to represent them in the effort to secure higher wages and change of conditions of service, and that the proposed strike, instead of being officiously ordered by the defendants, was a result of the vote of the employes, act- ing without coercion and directly author- izing the same. The court further finds after a full ex- amination and an analysis of the evidence that a charge of conspiracy to interfere with the interstate commerce of the United States or the mail service of the United States is not sustained. In discussing the issues after review- ing many authorities, the court concludes and lays down the law governing the rights, duties and privileges of employes as found on the latter part of page eight and the forepart of page nine of the opin- fon. The court finishes its opinion by stating its conclusions with a summary of the situation pertaining to the contro- versy.

The committees representing the employes are now free to act and if the differences are not amicably adjusted it will not be because they or the organ- izations of which they are a part have taken an unreasonable or arbitrary posi- tion. We will lend our best efforts to- ward a peaceable settlement. “While we may have suffered a tem- porary embarrassment by these proceed- ings, the most searching judicial inquiry into our methods has resulted in their being declared regular and lawful, and we think organized labor has been strengthened and dignified thereby.” E. J. Pinney, chief counsel for Brotherhood of Trainmen, referring the same subject, said: “It was the only logical and legal con- clusion that could have been reached by Judge Adams, and we have never ex- pected any other result.” ——— Electrical Workmen Go Out on Strike.
