Judge Gray, in the United States court of (he third eircuit. issued yesterday an injunction restraining thirteen defendants In the government's anti-trust suit against the United States Steel Corporation from destroying books and papers desired by the government in its suit against the trust. One portion of the government's petition seems susceptible of the inter, pretation that criminal indictments and prosecutions of certain officers ol the steel corporation and its subsidiaries are under consideration by the Department of Justice. What the Petition Charges. The petition avers that certain much wanted documents are in Imminent danger of destruction "because there are officers of the steel corporation and its subsidiaries who have not yet been indicted for the practices which said papers tend to show them guilty of, towit: "Of having been involved of the aforesaid unlawful association, and also because none of the defendant companies has yet been indicted in re-j spect thereto." j The injunction was issued on a petition of the Department of Justice, which alleges that several thousand papers and documents, which were used in tlie government's criminal prosecution . of the "wire pool" last fall, have been destroyed. The petition urges that numerous other papers were produced in the wire pool prosecutions which contained data "tending to show the. guilt of the American Slel and Wire Company, the United States Steel Corporation air'd the United States Steel Products (export) Company, as charged in said petition, as well as the fact that said Farrell, formerly president of the last named company, now president of the United States Steel Corporation, not merely was cognisant of the unlawful pooling arrangement entered into by the'Amerlcan Steel and Wire Company, through its officers, but tilso knowingly aided and abetted said Unlawful practices in violation of the Sherman anti-trust act." The rule issued by Judge Gray directing the defendants to show cause why a permanent injunction should not issue is returnable March 5. i
