Irwin and others v. Oregon Ry. & Nav. Co. and others.
    
      (Circuit Court, S. D. New York.
    
    October 15, 1886.)
    Co h pokation — Action—Parties.
    On petition for rehearing by Mr. H. Villard.
    See 27 Fed. Rep. 625.
    
      Butler, Stillman é Hubbard, for plaintiff.
    
      Holmes é Adams, for defendant.
   Wallace, J.

I have carefully examined the brief and authorities submitted by the counsel for Mr. Villard on the petition for a rehearing, but am unable to see liow he, as a promoter and abettor of the acts which have worked an equitable wrong to the complainants, can escape responsibility to the same extent with the corporation he represented. The petition for a rehearing has been considered on the merits; that is, as though the cause were here upon' a rehearing.

An order is directed denying the prayer of the petition.
