VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before the Vice-Chancellor WIGRAM.)

THE ATTORNEY• GENERAL v. THE GREAT WESTERN

RAILWAY COMPANY.

This case came before the Court upon motion for an
injunction to restrain the Great Western Railway Com-
pany from making, or charging, or demanding, collect
ing, or receiving from any person for the conveyance of
any passenger along their principal line or any of their
branches any tolls exceeding those directed to be taken
by two Acts of Parliament passed in 1847, one of which
was called the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Dudley
Railway Act, and the other the Great Western Railway
Amendment and Extension Act. It will be recollected
that the Great Western Railway Company have pur-
chased both these lines of railway, together with that of
the Birmingham and Oxford, but the actual transfer of
these to the company had not formally taken place, and
in that state of circumstances, the Company continuing
to charge their usuel fares, the question involved in the
present application was, whether, according to the con-
struction of the two Acts of Parliament, the reduction
of the toll was to take place immediately after the pass-
ing of the Act or not until the transfer of the line of the
Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Dudley Railway had
been made to the Great Western Rail way Company.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL (with whom was Mr. J.
Parker and Mr. Wray), on behalf of the Attorney-
General, and in support of the application for the injunc-
tion, contended that the Act came immediately into
effect, and that the Great Western Company were bound
immediately to reduce their fares upon the whole line.
Mr. Bethell, Mr. Rolt, and Mr. Stevens, appeared as
counsel for the Company.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR, in the course of the argu-
ment on behalf of the motion, stated his opinion to be
that he could not decide the question without the inter-
vention of a court of law, and ultimately it was agreed that
a case should be prepared for the opinion of a court of
law, with reference to the legal construction of the Act
referred to.
The motion was therefore ordered to stand over to af-
ford an opportunity of preparing such case.
Nothing of any interest occurred in the court of the
Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce, and the Vice-Chancellor
of England did not sit to .day.
The Master (of the Rolls) sat in the Judicial Com-
mittee of the Privy Council, which was occupied the
whole morning in hearing petitions for the extension of
patents and appeals.
