New Haven Road Opposed by Hulland Stockholders Suit
Counsel for the New York New Haven Hartford Railroad opposed a restraining order sought by Hulland Railroad minority stockholders to block its acquisition by the government under antitrust law.

The petition also sought to compel sale of 23 000 shares at 106 a share if relief was denied. In Lawrence Massachusetts a mill strike disrupted soliciting membership for the World workers earlier.
