Ti:o meeting of the Elks who ar- in charge of the preliminaries to the organization of a branch of the order in Kock Island will be postponed, ow- jns to nK. apjiearance of Otis Skinner at the Illinois this evening, when tile meeting was to have been held. The committee is meeting with great encouragement in their efforts. and al ready the charter list has been sign ed by 5it applicants. It is probable that the' original plan to eirganize the lodge' here in May. when the state as sociation meets in Moline, will not be carried u:t. The pre-seii' intention is to rl:.;e the list and pre'sent it to the Moline lodge for actiem within the' next two wee ks. It is necessary, necor ling to the regulations eif the order, that 25 ef the' applicants le accepted by the Moline lodge, before a charter can be secured. The change of plans is due to the fact that all interest during the wick of the convention wi.l be center- of April. Otherwise they would not care to withdraw until July, the close of the second quarter. With the large jnunibtr of applications already made, 'and these which will be returned with- jn-the next week, the new trganization wlil prol ably have a chatter list of ever 75 members.

TEXT OF MYERS DECISION In Suit Fcr Injunction of Rockford Against the Three Eye League. Following is the decision in full ren dered by Judge C. D. Myers in the McLean county branch of the circuit court at HliMmington on the applica tion f.r an injunction of the R.ckford basiball association against the Three Eye league. "The Three-Eye league, defendant in the proceeding, is purely a volun tary association, in which the eonstitu tioa. byiaws and resolutions involve,; In this controversy are to be regard ed as the wriUen expression of a con tract or agreement entered into by the constituent members; it is in the na ture of a partnership agreement, un der the facts alleged in the bill. The sele complaint is, that the defendant cljbs or those composing the league have failed in the performance of the contract or agreement entered in to. Under section 7, of the articles of agreement, the constituion of the as soeir.tion, the membership of any club in the league could be terminated by the adverse vote of a majority of tie. remaining clubs, when, for busines. reasons, such membership should in longer be desirable by the remaining clubs. What sshall consist the 'bus: ntss reason." is left to the other club? other than the one to be dropped This action may be taken at any meet ing of the league (dulv convened I At the annual meeting (duly conven ed the membership of the complain ant in the league was terminated , a majority vote of the remaining clubs, in str.'t conformity of section 7 of tin constitution, bylaws or agreement o the parties.

"The complainants' share of the ac cumulated fund for the season of 11)01 eloes not appear from the bill to be denied or withheld, and only, as re spects this fund, is there any right te accounting.

Com plainant had a right to withdraw from membership at any time under the destitution or articles of association. Another view of the case, the resolu tion of the clubs in dropping the com plainant and receiving the Peoria club, was. in effc-ct, a dissolution of one as sociation, and the organization of an other. This bill seks specific per formance of a contract by injunction, and under the showing made by the bill, it is not such a contract as equity may compel specific performance, and for that reason the biil is demurrable. It is not practicable for a court of equity to enforce spe-cif.c performance of the agreement alleged in the bill, even if we interpret the constitution, and the subsequent resolutions, as contended for by the complainant. We think no sufficient grounds for equit able jurisdiction, is shown, that the eu urre-r should be su-raineJ. and the bill dismissed for want ;f equity." Ilorkforrt (.itr. I p Klicbt.
