United States Supreme Court
66 U.S. 54
Wabash and Erie Canal v. Beers
Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the district of Indiana.
Beers filed his bill in the Circuit Court, averring inter alia that the defendants, as trustees of the Wabash and Erie canal, had certain moneys in their hands, arising from the sales of land and from tolls on the canal; that he, the complainant, had a lien on the proceeds of the land and upon the tolls, of which lien the defendants had notice, but refused to satisfy it. The bill prayed a decree that the defendants pay to the plaintiff the amount so due to him on a day to be named by the court, and that, in default of such payment, the canal be put into the hands of a receiver. The Circuit Court found the facts to be as alleged in the bill, ascertained the amount due the plaintiffs to be $3,755 60, and therefore ordered, adjudged, and decreed that the defendants pay into the clerk's office, on or before November 1, the sum found due; 'or, in default thereof, the court will, at the next term of this court, on motion of the complainant, appoint a receiver to take possession of said canal, or some portion thereof, for such time and on such terms as shall be according to the rules of this court, and just and equitable to the parties.'
Mr. Gillet, for the appellees, moved to dismiss the appeal, and submitted that this was not a final decree, from which an appeal would lie to this court. He cited the Judiciary Act of 1789, sec. 22; Wells vs. Hoag, (7 Paige, 18;) Beebe vs. Russell, (19 How., 283;) Haskel vs. Roul, (1 McCord Ch. Rep., 32;) and argued that the cases of Fagoy vs. Conrad, (6 H., 201,) Perkins vs. Fonnquet, (ib., 206,) Pullem vs. Christian, (ib., 209,) are not opposed to this view.
Mr. Usher, for the appellees, opposed the motion, and insisted that the decree was final. It is a simple adjudication of the question raised upon the bill, answer, and replication, and it is none the less a final decree because it is coupled with a threat of the court to appoint a receiver in case the defendants shall disobey it. He cited Harney vs. Bronson, (1 Leigh, 108;) Shepherd vs. Starke, (3 Mumford, 29;) Cook vs. Berry, (4 How., Miss., 503;) Larne vs. Larne, (2 Little, 261;) Hynds' Ch., 429; 2 Madd., 243; Newland, 49; 3 Dan. Ch. Prac., 1949.
Mr. Chief Justice TANEY.

ON EXCEPTIONS TO SPECIAL MASTER'S REPORT.
In this dispute between the United States and Utah over ownership of the Great Salt Lake, the Special Master refused to permit the intervention by Morton International, Inc., a claimant to part of the property, because Utah had not waived its sovereign immunity as to Morton's suit. Held: The Special Master's Report will be placed on file and his denial of intervention is approved, since a Stipulation entered into between Utah and the United States has so limited the issues that the presence of Morton and other private claimants is neither necessary nor appropriate.
