A Bankrupt Case.

Judge Woodruff, in the case of the petition
of Seth Adams to be made party to the ap-
plcatiOn of Jas. Alden, TO put the Boston,
Hartford and Erie road into bankruptcy. has
given an opinion that the decision in the Court
below dismissing Adams petition was erron-
eous, and he also decides in effect that as be-
tween the District Courts of Connecticut and
Massachusetts the latteris entitled toie xclusive
jurisdiction over the estate of the bankrupts
and over its administration. He holds that
the bankrupt actaud rule 16 of the Sup. Cour-
require that case like the present, wherc the
ba nkrupts constitute one corporation or two
corporations having joint and common inter
ests with one set of creditors who are alike in :
terested in the whole stock, the court whose
jurisdiction first attaches by the filing of petit
tion and an adjudication thereon retains and
is to exercise exclusive control over the admin
istratien for the bankrupt estate 1t appears
that the District Court of Mass achusetts is to
have exclsvr control and all the proceedings
IN Connecticut must be suspended.
