Buffalo, July 18.—In Special Term today Justice White granted an
injunction order restraining 160 machinists, now on strike at the Holly
Manufacturing Company’s plant in Lockport, from interfering with men now
at work or about to go to work there. It is directed against the lodge of
the National Association of Machinists “and others.” The application was
made by Judge Potter, a partner of Senator Ellsworth. The Holly company
has just secured an $800,000 contract for pumps for the Water Department
of Cincinnati and means to employ non-union men for the work.

NEW $10 SILVER CERTIFICATE.
It Has Been Christened the “Buffalo Bill” as it Bears on its Face the
Figure of a Buffalo.
Washington, July 18.—The fourth in the series of new silver certificates,
which will be known as the American series, will soon be issued from the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing, where the plates are nearly finished.
It will be a ten-dollar bill and has already been christened the “Buffalo
Bill,” not after Col. Cody, but because its distinctive character
will be the figure of a gigantic buffalo. On the note the buffalo is
headed westward, his shaggy head well down for a charge, his tail in a
pugnacious attitude and his matted mane sweeping the ground.
In this note, as in others of this series, it is intended to leave as
much open work as possible with a handsome design, the silk threads in
the paper forming one of the greatest safeguards against counterfeiting.
In many of the older notes the threads were almost entirely obscured by
scroll-work. The subjects for this series will be confined to American
life, hence the “American series.” On the one-dollar bill is the eagle,
on the two, George Washington, and on the five the handsome head of the
Indian chief, Onepapa. It was suggested that a picture of the battleship
Maine be used on the ten-dollar notes and the suggestion was at first
adopted. Later it was rejected as not distinctively American and not
to be distinguished from any other battleship. The department is still
searching for suitable subjects for the twenty and fifty-dollar bills.
