Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court October 26, 1896 (Vegelahn v. Guntner)

Allen, J.

The principal question in this case is whether the defendants should be enjoined against maintaining the patrol. The report shows that, following upon a strike of the plaintiff’s workmen, the defendants conspired to prevent him from getting workmen, and thereby to prevent him from carrying on his business, unless and until he should adopt a certain schedule- of prices.
