I'Hrticiilar Injunction I. ran led Hearing on the Recent Explosion The RiSbt or NKlnra! (Jkh Coiu-pauies fully Iicused-ItitereHt. in Court New.

Judge Stowe filed opinion yestordry upon the application of the City of Pittsburgh to restrain the Fuel Gas Company, and the Penn Fuel Company, from using the pipes now laid by them in the city limits for the transportation of natural gas. He decides that the city has a rijjht to tile sut a bill, but says he does not think the circumstances and extent the danger warrant a general injunction. The opinion con ludes: Rut there can be no doubt that there are means which can le used to make its us1 as safe ns That of artificial gas or any other dangerous agencies in daily use in the city for the manufacture and transportation of merchandise. A general injunction as pi ayed for that defendants be enjoined from bringing gas into the city through their pipes as laid, is out of the tpiesth.n. for the evidence which indicates any probable danger to the property of i-ixizens on the streets along which defendants pipes are laid.

The n-? of such tortious of defendants pipes as have been shown to le unsafe or may be hereafter show to Ih unsafe to n-e for the trans-jHirtation of their gas at the pressure used or which the defendants prof tone to use will le promptly enjoined until we have sufficient evidence that the dimmer has lieen averted. Rut for the present, as he only jKunts of aptuirent danger under the affidavits riled js along Penn avenue, say from Thirtieth to Thirty-fifth streets, we can now only order that an injunction issue to restrain the use of that portion of defendants' pi esas may be within such jMitnts, unless within forty-eight hours herefrom sufficient evidence is produced to tlie Court that the danger threatened In mi theescaje of gas trom defendants pil'S Itefween such oints, has leen removed. I mav add that 1 am strongly impressed with the opinion that a special commissi. of three or five competent and disinterested jw-r-sous should he apnnted by the Court to i inquire into the condition and safety of defendants lines of pijns within the city limits, and make report the facts in relation thereto. The public must protected so far as can 1m done with a due regard to the law.

but the defendants have rights which must uot le infringed uon without sufficient legal cause. The affidavits filed by the plaintiff are by no means suthceut. specific or satisfactory in regard to the exact location and extent of the points of danger to enable the Court to act with in-felliyence in regard to a matter of such immense iniHirtance. Nor do I lelieve there is any way iu which we can obtain an actual know ledge of the facts of hich we should Ih informed, other than the oue suggested. motion of either partv the appointment of the commissinu suggested will 1m uutde.
