CONTEMPT IS
NOW CHARGED
ROOKY GLEN EQUITY CASE

Hearing in tho Injunction Rule Is
Halted by a Motion for a Rule to
Show Cause Why the Defendants
Should Not Be Attached for Con
tempt of Court-A $25,000 Dam
age Suit Growing Out of the Ico
Train Wreck of Last Fourth of
July Other Court Matters.
The hearing in the Injunction case of
tho ilocky (lien Water company
against the Hcranton and Northeast
etn ltnllro.nl company, was Inter
t uptcd yesterday by u motion for a
rule on the defendants to show cause
why they should not be attached for
contempt of court.
Arthur Frothlnghtim nnd Annette
Reynolds, piesldent find treasurer,
u.spectlvely, of the Ilocky Glen com
pany, nt whose Instance the motion
was made, alleged In their uflldalt
that notwithstanding the Injunction of
May ::, l'jul, fni bidding the defend
ants fiom enteilng upon their land,
they h.no continued to work theie nnd
oen at the ptesent time have a der
llrk elected em the propei'lv.
The rule t,n.s granted by Jndg"
Kelly nnd made returnable forthwith.
Mr. Frothlnghmu testified that on
thiee dltfeient occasions, since the
granting of Hie liijunr .ion, hi- has
seen men t.t woik theie and found,
upon inqiilty, that they weie wotklng
for tho defendants. Some of them
were cutting tiees from the land nn.l
hewing them Into ties, Otheis weie
engaged In digging a ditch to dlwit
the water of Gieen Itun, which the
plaintiff company proposes to use to
supply Its contemplated lescrvoir.
Last Sunday, on the ociaslon of bin
last lslt to the place, Mr. Kiothlng
hntii, so he sas. found that the emit so
of the ciook had be'on completely
changed.
WHAT FOIIEMAX SAID.
On one visit to the ground he met
a 'oretnap In charge of the work and
ordered him to cease operations, noti
fying him, at the same time, of the
Injunction. The foreman tcfused to
stop anil said: "To hell with the In
junction." Mls.s Reynold, who accompanied
Mr. Frothlnghmu on these visits, cor
johornted his story.
Deputy Shot Iff J. D. Ferber testi
fied to having served the writ of in
junction on all the parlies to whom
it was addressed.
William Huinslrle, an employe of the
Rock Glen company, told of having
seen men at woik on the plaintiff
company's property nt various times
since the granting of the lmunctlo'i.
For the defense, Mr. Houghton tes
tified that as soon as the Injunction
was Issued, he notllleil all the- engi
neers and rnntrattois woiklng In and
about the Rocky Glen tiact to tense
operations and not enter upon the
propel ty again until ftttthor notice
from him. The work was stopped, he
said, nnd If nny men entered upon
the tr.n t they weie not employes of
the defendant company, as far as he
knew.
W. F. Rooth, n sub-contractor, who
had been woiklng on the Ror ky Glen
tract, testified that Mr. llntightnn noti
fied him of the Injunitlon and that
slnee that notification no woik was
done on tho piemlses by anyone In the
employ of the defendants, or by nn
ono else, as far as he knew,
INJUNCTION Ri:SPi:CTF.D.
J. 11. Rlttenhouse, chief engineer of
the division on which the ti.nl in
question Is located, testilled that no
work was done theie after May 2.1,
the date of the Injunction, ecept the
unloading of some appmattis and sup
plies by it firm of sub-contractors
from Philadelphia, who did not know
of the Injunction. As soon as news of
this was In ought to the company's of
fice, woul was sent the Philadelphia
allies that they must leinove their
stuff at once. Thoy promised to do
so, and dlrl, but allowed a dorilck to
stand with one nf Ifs poles reaching
onto the Rocky Glen tiact.
George A. Lee, of Philadelphia, one
of the dlreotois of the company, cor
robi "ated Mr. Rlttenhouse.
Major Wan-en ingued stionuonsly
that the testimony of the iVIendauts
themselves showed that they weie
guilty of contempt. The fai t that the
dei lick was still standing on the
plaintiffs piopeity was MiHIoicnt. h
contended, to piovo the defendants
contiinuulou.s.
Judge Kelly ordered the evidence
tinnscilbed and will pass upon the
niattet h'ter.
The healing on the ltilo to make
the preliminary Injunction permanent

NOTHING MUCH
TO BE DOING
80RANTON BOOKED FOR A VERY
TAME FOURTH
If It Wasn't for tho Double Teams on
tho Brewery Wagons and tho Ico
Cream Factories Working All
Night, We Would Scarcely Know
the Great National Holiday Was at
Hand Ancient Order of Britons
the Only Organization to Run a
Fourth of July Affair.
Ptetty much all tho customary Indi
cations of u gloilous new-fashioned
Fourth of July for Scranton were In
evidence last night, Including double
teams on the brewery wagons, nnd, as
far its was noticeable to the casual ob
server, thete was nothing In the air
savoring of tho old time Fouith, when
our back-number ptogenllois were
won't to regard the day as an anni
versary of our lepubllc's bitth,
Theie Is to he no patade nnd mibllo
meeting with pattlotlc; oiatlons or nny
of that sort of old-foggy thing with
which we weie, nt one time, won't to
Inspire the Using generation with the
fervor that hi ought about the first
Fourth of July.
To be sure the Country club Is going
to play golf nnd have a file works dis
play, the Ancient Order of Hrltons will
have an excursion to Mountain Park,
over the Central, nnd the Delawaie
nnd Hudson will run an excursion to
Lake Lodotc, but It Is quietly ussutcd
that none of these events will be
marred by the Intrusion of any Hag
waving or that suit of fol-de-iol.
In one paitlcular, the old-fashioned
Idea persists In prevailing. The flie
woiks nnd cannonading part ot the
old-time progiamme Is not Ignoied. In
fact It Is obsetved moie geneially
than evet, nccordliif, to the lepruts
fiom the hilltops and dcaleis In Ihe
woi ks.
These latter say the sales this year
were the laigest In thiee years, almost
equalling theise of the glorious Fouith
that was made so much more gloilous
by some achievement or other of some
Ameilcan soldlets or pallors or some
thing like that, some place or other.
Just how to account for the Increatd
sales Is not In the icndy teckoner, but
It might possibly be ventuted that some
sort of an obseivante of the Fourth is
still an Inclination of the avenge
American citizen, and theie being
nothing much offered in the wnv of
pk nlcs or exclusions, the gieat bulk of
the Intending obseiveis have deckled to
do their pattlotlc duty at home with
lliecrackeis, skyiockets and such like.
Iceui"ini oiders furnish a ptetty te
llable Indication that It Is going to be
a nice tame, home affair, this Fouith
of July, Uol. The thiee big nianurac
tuiers, M. J. Kell.v, J. D. Williams &
Pro. and the- Lackawanna Dalt com
pany, will have turned out b noon to
day about 4,200 gallons, or neatly ton
tons of Ice cteam, and all but about :t5
gallons of It Is for city cuptonieis.
Tlie demand for lee cientn Is the
largest the city has ever expetlenced.
All thiee llinis have been woiklng their
plants tn almost their full capacity to
take taie of the ti.nle dining the ex
tiemely hot days of the past week, anil
the extra unlets coming In for the
Fourth made It necessmy for them to
tefue buslno as eaily us noon cs
teiday. At an nveiage pi Ice of $1 r,0 a gallon
to the consumer, the city will today get
away with moie than $0,000 woith of
lee ci cam, piovldlng nl.l that Is put out
by the maniifactuieis Is disposed of,
and It Is safe guessing It will bo. And
this is not taking Into account the out
put of the .smaller m.inufac Hirers or tin
Ice cream that will be made at homo.
About 1 000 gallons of Ice cieam was
ouleicd fiom Sir.inton ilenlei.s foi pic -nlcs
up the valle.v, but the oidei.s weie
cancelled, been use of the picnics being
bioken up by the smallpox seme,
INJUNCTION AGAINST
STRIKING MACHINISTS
Courts at Cincinnati Forbid the Use
of Violence A Very
Broad Order.
Ily Kuliisitp Wlie fiom The Associated l'iess
Cincinnati, July :!. Judge A. C.
Thompson, of the United States couit,
today allowed a temporaty Injunction
against the sulking machinists. Thu
f.ctlnn had been anticipated, and as
Judge Thompson Is to said for Ilurope
nevl Sound. ty it was expected that
Judge Clink would hear the case.
When there was a prospect for an
iigieinont between the paitles, Judge
(iaik left tho city on Tuesday for
his home In Chattanooga. Judge
Thompson was, thetefoie, called on to
Issue a tenipoiaiy Injunction. He
said that upon the application and the
ntlldavlts accompanying It, n tenipoi
aiy oidei would be issued nnd the
healing on Us met Its eould be hail
befoie Judge Claik next week. The
order was a ver bio. id one. It en
joined the defendants fiom picketing
or patrolling mound the fnctoilos ot
the plaintiffs nial from guaidlng the
doors or the stieets in front of the
fnctoilos and from Intel feting in any
wny with employes now in tlie fac
tories, either tlieio or at their homes;
fiom Intimidating their relatives or
inembeis of Jor families, it also for
bade the use of violence, fluents or in
t'liildatlon to Induce nn) poison to
leave the emplo.v ment of the plaintiffs
ei to prevent anyone fiom enteilng
l.itn their employment.
Attorne)s for the defendants com
plained that the allowance of a tem
poral y Injunction might delay a hear
ing upon Its merits and Judge Thomp
son theteupon ngieed to hear a motion
In the afternoon to dissolve ttiP tem
porary Injunction, After an extended
lieai Ing counspl for the plaintiffs con
sented to n slight modification of that
pait of the older, which foi bade the
defendants fimn enteilng Hip piemlses
of the plulntlfls fnr the puipose of Im
pelling their business, A stienuous
effoit was made to have stllcken out
the order ngalnst "picketing" but It
was unsuccessful, No fiulher changes
weie allowed nnd the Judge set July 15
for a homing for a permanent Injunc
tion. The ouler of Injunction names
