A recent partial decision Of the Fayette County
Court in Kentucky susains the validity OF the claim OF
the first mortgage bondholders of the Maysville and
Lexington Railroad but reduced it to the amount
originally paid for the bonds and interest thereon and
the suficiency of the mortgage as lien upon all the
property of the Company Both these points were
disputed by the other creditors the former on plea
of usurv and the latter the ground that portion
of the property had been acquired after the execution
of the mortgage. No opposition is made by the stock
holders to the foreclosure of the mortgage and sale of
the road The question as to an absolute sale OF the
whole property or of only such part may be neces-
cary to pay the arrears of interest," has not as yet
been decided.
