Dietrich Price Cutting Enjoined in Michigan We print herewith a copy of the injunction entered in the suit against the Smith Mercantile Company, of Grand Rapids, Mich. This concern, which had never signed a Dealer's license agreement, had purchased a stock of Edison Records and persisted in disposing of them at cut prices after they were notified by our Legal Department that such action would result in the bringing of suit. Judge Denison granted a restraining order while on his vacation in the woods of Northern Michigan, where our lawyers had great difficulty in locating him. After he had returned from his vacation the motion for preliminary injunction was argued before him, and notwithstanding the defendants were represented by several of the most able attorneys in Grand Rapids, the preliminary injunction was granted as prayed for. The injunction printed below was issued as a result of the decision of the motion for preliminary injunction in our favor. IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES. Western District of Michigan.
