Injunction Granted Against Navy Over Galveston Launch
In Richmond a chancery court judge barred Lieuts Theiss and Grossbeck of the United States Navy from further action toward launching the Galveston cruiser under construction at Trigg yards. The ruling follows a petition by S. H. Hawes & Co., creditors of Trigg Co. in receivership, and restrains government officials from interfering with Trigg yard property under receiver burn T. Myers. Washington said the Galveston matter is with the attorney general and no statements will be made. Moody declined to discuss cabinet views or possible department actions. The attorney general's revised (unpublished) opinion affects plans for a show of force. Moody favors awaiting Justice Department advice.
