THE ERIE VAR RBOPENED.
THREE INJuNcrIoNs GRANTED.


The great Erie War which, like the fight at
Fodden Field "for space had failed" has been re-
opened and promises TO prove abOundng In incident
as the previous stages ohe contest The begerents are
the same, but some, and those the most prominent
have changed sides, and the forlorn hope OF the
Vanderbilt ring ia now under the command OF Mr.
John g. Eldridge, the President Of the Erie Rail-
road 1t appears that The present difficulty originated
in an effort TO oust from the Board Of Directors Messrs
James Fisk Jay Could instead Of whom were to be
installed Messrs. ]. II. Banker and John Stewart MI
John g. Edrdge understood to have assented oths
arrangement In order TO maintain their position the
threatened directors had to their old enemy
Judge Barnard, who Issued separate njuncuons against
the Board President The nunctons we're issued
the complaint OF Mr. Jay Could who claimed that Mr.
Eldridge has not for q considerable time past Deen
conducting the affairs OF the road In manner calculated
advance the stockhoders and that he
has been making the interests OF the Ere Road subserV
ent to those Of the Boston Hartford Road Of which
ho is also the President The injunction resrans the car
rying OF the arrangement by which Messrs Banker
and Stewart placed in the Board and who Is
alleged are in the Vanderbilt interest. The energy and
determination evinced by the Messrs Fisk and Gould
during the memorable days OF the siege Of Port Taylor
indicate that the struggle for the control OF the Erie Road
will be stubbomly contested.
