Judge dissolves injunction on cigar makers strike aid
New York June 1 Justice Andrews in the supreme court dissolved the sweeping injunction against the Cigar makers' union that barred member benefits and contributions to striker relief while the head of the house was out of work. Samuel Gompers denounced the order as un-American and illegal, once facing possible contempt. The dissolution limits the injunction to restrain union members from interfering with the manufacturers’ business, with the act previously extending to bar strike support to workers.
