GREAT WESTERN RAII:IVAT.--ThiS railway has
for upwards of two months run a " quick train," performing
the journey from London to Exeter in five hours. Within
the last few das4pit has announced its intention to start an
express train, to perform the journey, 193 miles, in four
hours and a half, being at the rate of forty-five miles per
ho. r, including stor pages ; but to enable it co this, and.
(furl: .iny number of pass3ngers (which the ex t r ss trails on
other lines do not do), it discontinued the ten minutes
stoppage for refreshments at the Swindon rooms. The pro-
prietor of these rooms sought to prevent this train passing
without stopping, inasmuch as the Company had contracted
with him, as he alleged, t) stop all trains, except express
and special trains, at his station, for refreshments, for ten
minutes, and he on Tuesday and yesterday applied to Vice-
Chancellor Wigram for a special injunction to stop those
express trains at his rooms. After two days' discussion by
Mr. Bally (with Mr. Nelson as solicitor), for the proprietors
and plaintiffs, Messrs. Rigby, and Mr. Stuart, and Mr.
Thomas Steveni(with Messrs. Swain and Stevens, as sot
eitors) For the railway Company, his Honour adjourned the
inkinctiora, fbr the blaintiffs to try their remedy at law in the
usual moister, if they shoed be adtrisee.
