Stokes OIL Company's Litigation.
William Bycrs vs.. The Brooklyn Refining Conn.,
pany and Othcrs.-This is the company in which
Edward s. Stokes had an interest, and about
which he had some trouble with his victim, Colonel
Fisk, several years ago. The land upon which the
business OF refining oil was carried on was leased
Ave years from May i, 1870. Stokes assigned the
lease to the Brooklyn Refining Company, and the
BROOKLYN Refining Company assigned 1t aiterward
to the plaintiff who, by purchase OF the stock held
by Stokes, became one Of the largest stockholders
OF the company.
nning Company has no capital and is not doing
any business, but that he Is carrying on the busi-
ness OF refining Oil at those premises on his own
account and has invested o large amount OF money
in oil, &C, on the faith Of the assignment to him OF
the lease from Mr.. Stokes. In this assignment
ws 3Ss9 ~ Se e ~
that he received paper purportfng to be such a
notice. In the first part OF October last the CON-
pany sent large force OF men who took posses
sion OF the refinery, and until the obtaining by
him OF an Injunction kept him out OF possession.
He Immediately commenced this action to have
the notice which he received terminating the lease
declared nudity, and to have the assignment Of
the lease to him and the other papers cancelled so
that he may get lease direct from the owner, and
to obtain an Injunction restraining the defendants
from interfering with his business or his posses
sion OF the premises.
Yesterday argument was heard on the question
whether an injunction previously granted should
be continued pending the action or dissolved, and
the Court reserved decision.
