Comment of Court.
"These men may just as’well understand that the law Is greater than thS union,” said judge Anderson aa he made references to alleged scof-, fing at the power of the court. "This jail here is big enough to bold them all and I’ll put them th'.'-e it they don’t obey the order of tne court.” It was reported to the court by Mark Storen, United States marshal.
that the deputy marshal, C. E. Whick er. who served the defendants with
notice# of the suit, had no more than left Shelbyville than the defendants took up again the activities complained of in the bill filed against them. It was reported that one defendant had said he thought the plaintiff would get an injunction, but that it would not do him any good, as the union men would not obey the order. ^
Names of Ceaeeras.
“Get the name of that man,” ordered the court when he heard of the circumstances. “1 want his name. We'll see whether the order will be obeyed.” The Shelbyville concerns mentioned in the suit as being affected by the alleged unionizing activities of the
d
defendants are the Speigel Furniture

Furniture Company. Shelbyville Wardrobe Manufacturing Company, Blanchard-Hamiiton Furniture Company, Mode 11 Furniture Company, O. L. Conrey Furniture Company, Tin-

Alleged Policy of Force. It is alleged the union set out to force these concerns to adopt closed
shops last May. The charge is made that the defendants have used “un-
lawful means, including riots and unlawful assemblages, to drive away employes who were satisfied with
their condltione.” *
The demands of these unions were read in court today. They include order# for only one apprentice to each seven skilled men, two years’ apprenticeship. no contract or piecework, that-all dealings of the company with the men be direct with representatives of the unions, payment of uaion dues by means of the “check-off." sages established by an adopted schedule and eight-hour days with time an a half for overtime and double time for holiday*, except that no man shall work on Labor day.
