The purpose of this paper is to extend the theorems in [3; 7] to uniform spaces and to prove some additional theorems. These results are related to [4; 5]. Notation and definitions are as in the book [2]. For a general reference on nets see [6]. All topological spaces are assumed to be Hausdorff.

THEOREM 1. Let (X, T, Π) be a transformation group, where X is a locally compact, locally connected, uniform space. Let E denote the set of all points at which T is equicontinuous and N = X – E. Let N be closed totally disconnected and each orbit closure in N be compact and let E be connected. Then N contains at most two minimal sets. (Note: We will assume that N ≠ ∅ so that N will contain at least one minimal set.)
