Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The court below, by the order appealed from, refused to retract or meddle with an injunction contained in the final decree herein entered nearly 20 years ago. The action of the court was proper (Central Trust Co. v. Grant Works, 135 U. S. 207, 10 S. Ct. 736, 34 L. Ed. 97), but the order should have been based upon lack of power or jurisdiction.

When modified, so as to refuse relief for lack of power so to do, and as modified, the order is affirmed, with costs.
