omitted to be done in violation of the provisions of this Act, or of any law cognizable by said Commission, by any common carrier, or (2) that any injury or damage has been sustained by the party or parties complaining, or (3) by other parties aggrieved in consequence of any such violation, it shall be the duty of the Commission:

(a) To forthwith cause a copy of its report in respect thereto to be delivered to such common carrier. (Sec. 15.)

(b) Together with a notice to said common carrier to cease and desist from such violation, OR to make reparation for the injury so found to have been done, or both, within a reasonable time, to be specified by the Commission. (Sec. 15.)

(c) And if, within the time specified, it shall be made to appear to the Commission that such common carrier has ceased from such violation of law, and has made reparation for the injury found to have been done, in compliance with the report and notice of the Commission, or to the satisfaction of the party complaining, a statement to that effect shall be entered of record by the Commission, and the said common carrier shall thereupon be relieved from further liability or penalty for such particular violation of law. (Sec. 15.)

Failure of Common Carrier to Obey Judgment of Commission.

First: That whenever any common carrier, as defined in and subject to the provisions of this Act, shall violate or refuse or neglect to obey any lawful order or requirement of the Commission in this Act named, it shall be the duty of the Commission, and lawful for any company or person interested in such order or requirement, to apply, in a SUMMARY WAY, by petition, to the Circuit Court of the United States sitting in equity in the judicial district in which the common carrier complained of has its principal office, or in which the violation or disobedience of such order or requirement shall happen, alleging such violation or disobedience, as the case may be. (Sec. 16.)

Second: The said court shall have power to I hear and determine the matter:

(a) On such short notice to the common carrier complained of as the court shall deem reasonable;

(6) And such notice may be served on such common carrier, his or its officers, agents, or servants, in such manner as the court shall direct. (Sec. 16.)

(c) Said court shall proceed to hear and de

termine the matter speedily as a court of equity, and without the formal pleadings and proceedings applicable to ordinary suits in equity, but in such manner as to do justice in the premises; and to this end such court shall have power, if it think fit:

(d) To direct and prosecute, in such mode and by such persons as it may appoint, all such enquiries as the court may think needful to enable it to form a just judgment in the matter of such petition; and

(e) On such hearing, the report of said Commission shall be prima facie evidence of the matters therein stated. (Sec. 16.)

(ƒ) And if it be made to appear to such court, on such hearing or on report of any such person or persons, that the lawful order or requirement of said Commission drawn in question has been violated or disobeyed, it shall be lawful for such court to issue a writ of injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise, to restrain such common carrier from further continuing such violation or disobedience of such order or requirement of said Commission, and enjoining obedience to the same. (Sec. 16.)

(g) And in case of any disobedience of any

such writ of injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise, it shall be lawful for such court to issue writs of attachment, or any other process of said court incident or applicable to writs of injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise, against such common carrier, and, if a corporation, against one or more of the directors, officers, or agents of the same, or against any owner, lessee, trustee, receiver, or other person failing to obey such writ of injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise. (Sec. 16.)

(h) And said court may, if it shall think fit, make an order directing such common carrier or other person so disobeying such writ of injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise, to pay such sum of money not exceeding for each carrier or person in default the sum of five hundred dollars for every day after a day to be named in the order that such carrier or other person shall fail to obey such injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise; and such moneys shall be payable as the court shall direct, either to the party complaining, or into court to abide the ultimate decision of the court, or into the treasury; and payment thereof may, without

prejudice to any other mode of recovering the same, be enforced by attachment or order in the nature of a writ of execution, in like manner as if the same had been recovered by a final degree in personam in such court. (Sec. 16.)

Appeal.

When the subject in dispute shall be of the value of two thousand dollars or more, either party to such proceeding before said court may appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States, under the same regulations now provided by law in respect of security for such appeal; but such appeal shall not operate to stay or supersede the order of the court or the execution of any writ or process thereon; and such court may, in every such matter, order the payment of such costs and counsel fees as shall be deemed reasonable. (Sec. 16.)

Petition to Circuit Court-by Whom Presented.

First: Whenever any such petition shall be filed or presented by the Commission, it shall be the duty of the District Attorney, under the direction of the Attorney-General of the United States, to prosecute the same. (Sec. 16.)
