Jones and the Bar bers' union Is to take testimony and reach the truth by regular trial. Pre siding Judge Gantenbeln in the circuit court this morning continued in effect tne .temporary injunction Dy juoge Mor row, which Is much milder In its terms than desired by the nonunion barber. Hath sides to the dlsoute were some what disappointed In not having their rights denned, but the union men claim they have the best of It because the In unction as it stands does not seriously nterfere with the steps thev have taken in fighting Jones, and they have succeeded, lor tne present at least, in preventing the extension and strength ening the injunction In the manner asked by the attorneys for Jones. Judge Gantenbeln this morning called attention to tha fact that some of the most Important matters bearing on the Injunction are In dispute. .The plaintiff alleges that the union men congregate about Iris places of business in large numbers, so that they Interfere with his customers and his employes.

BE SETTLED A FORMAL TRIAL leaders deny that more than two of their pickets are on duty at one time. The plaintiff alleged the frequent use of "scab" and other epithets In the vtclnlty of the two shops operated by Jones, and this Is denied by the union men. The court wild that the only way to reach the truth In regard to these matters Is by taking testimony In the regular way when the case comes to trial. Judge Gantenbeln said that he has been waiting to secure an ,authentltc text of the decision of the United States circuit court of appeals in the AlUS-Chalmars case.
