Supreme Court rules against Labor Union Discrimination
The Supreme Court held Section 10 of the 1898 arbitration act unconstitutional, upholding an employer’s right to discharge or discriminate against workers for union membership. Justice Harlan delivered the opinion, with Justices McKenna and Holmes noting differing views. The ruling may prompt calls for constitutional amendment or new labor legislation and arose from the Coppage case involving Adair against the United States.

Supreme Court rules railroads not to blame in Penn Refining dispute
Justice Peckham writes that the Supreme Court upheld the Circuit Court of Appeals clear that discrimination allegations fail for lack of demand for tank cars by independent refiners in Western Pennsylvania.
