Syllabus

<p>Injunction — Protection of Personal Rights — Strikes—Interference with Employees. In an action for injunctive relief against a printer’s union to prevent interference with plaintiff’s employees, who had taken the place of striking employees, a permanent injunction after a trial on the merits is properly denied, where the strike leader, who was inciting the strikers to acts of intimidation and was himself guilty of assault, had left the state and thereafter there had been no acts of violence and intimidation, for a period prior to suit and up to the trial, and there was no showing in the evidence of any reasonable probability of further interference.</p> <p>Injunction — Protection of Personal Rights — Interference with Employees. The destruction of one’s business through the intimidation of employees while in their employment is as much the subject of injunctive relief as is the destruction of physical property.</p>
