and Speaker Of the House Of Representa-
tlves, praying an Injunction to restrain them
from appointing directors in the North Carolina

power out ofthe Governors hands. The argument
was concluded to-day but the decision OF the Court
Is reserved.

The West Side Elevated Railway, with all its ap.
purenances, is to be sold auction on the sth Of
September, by order OF the Court OF Common Pleas,
at the request OF james A. Cowlng one of the trus.
tees Of the road. This, as Is not generally known,
will be the third sale OF the road, its rights and
properties, since its construction was commenced
1t seems to have met with full share of the msfor.

ing, building and the changes which experience
has shown To be necessary, It Is said by of the
gentlemen interested that OF one million OF dollars
invested IN the work there Is not enough left to fur

on the dummy,
II should not be understood, however, that this
pending sale Is at all indicative OF stoppage OF the
cars which are still making ten round trips per
day. II amounts simply to o new departure on
determination OF those interested 10 make both
the road and Its vehicles all that experience has
shown TO be best. Instead OF the cars now IN use,
and which carry twenty-five passengers, seated,
they have In progress cars which Will comfortably
seat forty persons. These will be placed upon the
track as soon as completed, and the declaration 10
that as soon as the sale at auction shall have taken

required to place II IN condition to safely and
