UNION STRIKERS MUST PAY COSTS.
Metal Polishers of Dayton, Ohio, Assessed $586 in an Injunction Suit.
Dayton, Ohio, July 18.—The metal polishers, as a union or individuals, will have to pay $586 as costs in the injunction suit brought against them by the Manufacturers’ Association. Execution was issued this afternoon by County Clerk C. W. Biser against the Metal Polishers’ Local Union No. 5, and the several hundred defendants who were permanently enjoined at the instance of the Dayton Manufacturing Company from in any way interfering with its business, directing and commanding Sheriff Keshner to levy upon any of the goods and chattels of the defendants or upon any of the lands or tenements of the defendants to satisfy the claim for costs.
The costs were incurred in the hearing of the injunction suit, and were in favor of the clerk, the Sheriff and witnesses. The fees of the witnesses alone amount to about $102. The costs stand as a judgement against the union and the defendants who were enjoined by Judge Kumler. The costs are a lien upon property, and building associations will not lend money upon property so encumbered.
