Chicago, May 27. Jutlgo Stein's court room was filled with interested listeners when the Sunday opening ciise of Clhig ni.iu against the World's Columbian Expo sition company and the South park com missioners came up.. Attorney William K. Mason was there, ready to gc on record as "The People's William,'' nnd fight for the injunction his client seeks, despite the fact that the directory and nation1, commission have resolved to open the fair on Sunday. Attorney E lwia Walker was present to represent the exposition, an I District At torney Milchrist appeared in the. double capacity of watching the case on behalf of the federal government .and as the "friend of the court," as Attorney Walker sug gested. Walker's Argument. National Commissioner Hundley was ilso present in similar capacity, while At torneys Uault and Street were there to in sist that certain Sabbatarians whom they represent should be allowed to iutervene as complainants. The intervening petition filed by Attorney Uault prays for a tempor ary injunction restraining the exposition oflicials and directors of the corporation from opening any part of the exposition on the first day of the week. Attorney Walker argued that the act of congress relating to Sunday closing was merely a condition to an appropriation. The World's fair direc tors had accepted the condition with the appropriation, but as congress had after ward withdrawn a portion of the appro priation the directors were no longer bound to fullfil their part of the contract. Mason Wanted Double Surety. Mason maintained that the act of con gress violatosthecoustitutionof the United States and the state of Illinois. He merely wanted u restraining order to prevent the local directors from changing the existing rule to open t he fair Sundays. It was con tended by Attorney Uttlt that inasmuch as the directors had continued to receive money from the government after the al- S2 it w as. pity the rooi: cii.vii; prsiiEit. leged violation of the contract by congress their conduct in opening the gates at this time could not be justified. After the ar guments had closed the court said that while it was conceded by all that the ques tion should be disposed of at least teiu porarilv as soon as possible, yet the ques tion was of such character and of such grave and serious nature that the court was not disposed to pass upon it at once but it would do so Monday morning. Nothing in the Way Tomorrow. Judge Su.-in said it was r.ot apprehended that other courts would take action and there could be no injury to the complain ants by the delay. He had beeu assured bv United States Attorney Milchrist that no action would lie taken by him until then, tiault promised that nothing would be done so far ns he was concerned while the court had the matter under advise meat and court adjourned. Vncle Sum's Lesal Movement. When told the reason that Judge Stein gave for not rendering rn immediate de cision on the Sunday closing case, DiS' trict Attorney Milchrist said that Judge Stein had been informed that though the bill would be tiled in the United States court today a hearing would not be reached until next week. The suit will be heard before a full bench in the United States Circuit court. THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE PAPERS. Religious Journals Have an Inning at the Art Institute. tfal 9 Chicago, May 27.
