New Albany dlass Company Fort "Wayne Ready for Elks Assailant Bound to the Grand Jury. Freclal to the Indianapolis Journal. TEURE HAUTE. Ind.. June 10.-Judge Tiety, of the Circuit Court to-day granted a temporary mandatory injunction against the Amer.can Express Company to require lT. to accept packages from the company which has been formed to handle the ex press business on the Southern Indiana read, of which John R. Walsh, of Chicago, is president, without discrimination in the method of exchanging business with It as compared with the methods pursued In the exchange of business with the United States or the Adams. The defendant was not rep resented In court, notwithstanding that no tice had been served some days ago, when the court Issued a temporary restraining order. The Injunction granted to-day will stand until a final decision shall have been ren dered on the merits of the case. The're is considerable speculation as to the purpose of the old company, which, with the Adams and American, had been opposing the ex change of business, in permitting the in junction to be Issued by default. It had teen presumed the old companies would fight the new law under which the proceed ing was brought at every step, but as the fight on the part of the railroad com panies as against the express companies is being waged In a persistent and vigorous manner by John R. Walsh it may be that the express companies have determined It were better policy to comply with the law in this instance than to entire agitatio.i that might result in similar laws being enacted in other States and by Congress. Similar injunctions have been granted by Judge Buskirk. of the Jackson Circuit Court, and Judge Martin, of the Lawrence Circuit Court. Petition for a Settlement. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
