for the examination of VIM. Travers
upon the motion to vacate the indict.
ment against Jay Gould at the suit OF
the Erie Railroad Company came up
for argument in the Supreme Court
Chambers to-day before Judge Fancher.

that this was simply q fishing expedi-
ton to get evidence before the public to
create an impression that the arrest
was simply a stock gambling operation
and not bona fde suit brought by the
Erie Company to recover misapproprl-
ated funds. On the other hand, it was
urged that they only desired to get at
the truth, and il Mr.. Trsvers intended
to tell the truth he could do so upon an
oral examination az well as by affida-
Wit, if thev complied with the offer on
behalf Of Mr.. Travers to submit written
interrogatories, and upon the answers
thus given frame other questions. The
Court intimated that an early decision
would be rendered and took the papers.
