Labor leaders seek stay on contempt ruling in Buck's Stove case

Attorneys for Samuel Gompers John Ichell and Frank Morrison asked the District Court of Appeals for a stay on its mandate sentencing them to 30 days in jail and fines of 500 dollars each for contempt in the Buck's Stove and Range case. They plan to appeal to the Supreme Court and the court granted leave to renew if the appeal cannot be prepared within fifteen days. A rehearing would be filed in the Supreme Court over the Palestine office and shop removals. The attorneys insist the yesterday decision was only an ex parte temporary injunction and not the full merits of the case. They expect a final ruling in favor of the labor movement, preserving Houston and New Orleans offices while shops stay in Palestine. The rest of the column notes a River Side Restaurant chicken supper and a local meat company advert.
