THE MAYO'S AGAINST THE JAMES RIVER
BRIDGE COMPANY-An Injunction Granted,
and q Notion TO DissOlre The Same Refused.
Some time since Alr. Edward Mayo and
others made application to Judge Fitz-
hugh. of the Chaucery Court, to epjoln the
city of Richmond, through the City Coun-
ell, more especially VIM. Ii. Alderdice,
auditor, from attempting to appropriate
the funds of the city OF Richmond to a
subscription to the stock of the James
River Bridge Company, or from paying
over the same until further ordered by the
court.
On the 18th of May Judge Fitzhuqh gave
notice that he would hear the motion for
an injunction on the 24th yesterday. The
parties appeared at 10 o'clock, and the
court, upon consideration Of the bill of
complaint and exhibits, and the answer of
the city of Richmond and exhibits, and the
arguments Of counsel, an Injunction was
awarded to eniOin and restrain the defend
ants and all others from appropriating or
applGing the funds OF the city of Richmond
to the subscription to the capital stock Of
the James River Bridge Company until the
further order Of the court"
The order Is not to take effect, however,
until the complainants shall give bond with
good security in the sum of $1,000, condi-
toned to pay all costs rs may be awarded
against the complainants, and all such
damages rs shall be incurred in case the in
junction should be dissolved.
The defendant III the case (the city of
Richmond) moved through the attorney to
dissolve the injunction, which was argued
by counsel and finally overruled by the
court.
