The Boston, Hartford, and Erie Railroad is
reported TO have arranged with the Erie Rail-
way and the Pennsylvania Coal Company to
indorse its bonds for 81 000, 900. This sum, with
the three millions granted by the State of Mas
sachusetts, win suffice to complete the un-
finished links between Willimantic and Mecha-
nicsville, and between Waterbury and Fishkill.
The case of 0verend, Gurney & Co., is en-
tering on q new phase. The defense assOca-
tions have lodged an appeal before the House
OF Lords for an early hearing OF their case, so
that O decision may be obtained during this
session. The London Times city article says it
has been considered that the magnitude of the
interests Involved, and the number of persons
the shareholders alone amount to nearly 260O---
who will be affected by the result of the appeal,
fully justify an expectation that the appeal
will meet with favorable consideration.
The Directors OF the West Philadelphia Pas
senger Railway have declared q semi-annual
dividend of five per cent. on the capital stock
OF the company, payable on and after the 18th
instant. sf.t Fs.frl
