INTIMIDATION BY A TRADES UNIONIST.

At the Guildhall, York, on Monday, the Lord
Mayor and other magistrates were engaged in hearing a
charge against James Dunmore for having unlawfully used
threats to George Fisher, for the purpoce of forcing him to
pay •• fine of 21.
Mr. Mann appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Roberta,
of Manchester, for the defendant.
' it appeared that some time ago the stonemason of
York struck for an advance of wages, and Fisher, who
did rot belong to the stonemasons union, was
plied to by the union men to strike also. lie declined
to do so, but afterwards joined the society. He was
then told that for refusing to give up working during
the strike the union had inflicted a fine of 21. This sum he
did not pay, and he heard no mote of the matter nutil she
26th of November last, when, having been for six weeks
out of work, he had taken a job under Mr. Keswick, who
has a contract for execntiog some of the work in connection
with Sendal-bridge. After breakfast on that day Dunsmore
reminded Fisher of the fine which stood against him, and told
him that unless that amount was paid the whole of the men
would strike. On Saturday night a similar statement was
made to Fisher, and on the following Wednesday Mr. Kes-
wick discharged Fisher in consequerce of a communication
be received from his foreman, Henzy Ward. The latter
denied that be had any conversation with Dunmore in
reference to Fisher bciug kept on the works, but the
defendant had said something to him in reference to this
affair happening.
Mr. Roberts, at great length, contended that the
dence bad altogether failed to make out • cue against the
defendant under the penal enactment he was °barged with
having infringed. No complicity bed been shown between
Dunsmore and any other individual, nor had there been
shown to be a strike or anything like it.
The bench were of opinion that, upon the evidence of
Fisher, the defendant had brought himself under the act,
and they awarded him one month's imprisonment.
Notice of appeal at the next union was given, and the
defendant entered into sureties to abide by the decision
which may then be arrived at.

Toss lirraorouTert RAlLWAY.—Yesterday Colo-
mil Yolked, the government inspector of railways, made
another trip along the line. Messrs. Fontes, Tanner,
Johnnie, and other officials were pre-ent. The train, con-
sisting of an engine and carriage, started from Paddington
about 11.50 a.m. along the up line to Fardiagdon.street
station. After • careful examination of the altered sig-
nals and the electrical indicators, which have been fur-
nisbed for the purpose of showing the position of the distant
semaphores, the train returned along the down line of rails
to Paddington. The result of this further investigation is
the removal of all oppodtion on the part of the Board of
Trade to the immediate opening of the line. This is, how-
ever, again postponed till Saturday, the 10th of January,
while the inauguration banquet is expected to come off this
day week, the 7th January.
EMIT LONDON AND ROTHERNITHE RAILWAY.—
It is proposed, in order to carry this line ander the
Thames from the London and Blackwell Railway
to Rotherbithe, so as to relieve London-bridge
and its approaches, and furnish railway so-
amemodation to the populous districts by the East of
London, to purchase the Thames Tunnel, and either ap-
propriate it to railway purposes or stor up and discontinue
it for its psalmist purposes. The precise route, as settled,
by the segineen, will be from the termious of the Black-
well Railway, about 50 yards on the west side of Christian-
asst. in the pariah of Bt. George's-in-the-Ease, and tar.'
