THE ATTITUDE OF AFFAIRS AT PRESENT
TnE WILMINGTON CORPORATION IN POS.
SESSION OF the DISPUTED GROUND.
The Berks County Railroad (being the
extension of the Wilmington and Reading
Railroad To the Lehigh coal regions) has
been making rapid progress OF late, much
10 the ChHgnn of the Philadel pha and
Reading munopolists who have always re-
eardod the Wilmington ami Reading with
dlsiayOr and fought the L.high extension
with positive Nilulrnce.
Some time ago the city Of Reading
~utncd the BCIks County Railroad tue
right Of yay through Front and Canal
streets, in that city. The company was
in no hurry to avail itsclf OF the privilege,
hut OF cuuisr proposed 10 do so in due
cuui,c ui time, i'ut the z. ~ Il. K. 4. COM
pany. determined 10 continue its vmdictive
warfare, On Thursday night of last week
ilt un a large force Of men and laid its
uNn tracks on the streets granted to the
bcrks County Road. Their work was
stopped 10y AN injunction from one Of the
local Judges.
The Chy Council of Reading met in
special session ON Saturday evening, and
almost unanimously ordered the tearing
mp Of the tracks laid by tue Z. IL X. X. Il.
city Commissioner nj the head of large
force of Wurhmcn tore uplthe tracks aud
llrs aud 'arlcd them to vacant lot. The
people halted this proceeding with delight
dhd 81 intense Was the Indignation againsL
lhc usurmng monopoly that there was
elumlncnt danger that "a mob would pitch
the material removed into the Schuylklll.
While this was in progress the counsel
of the 7. * Il. Il. H., applied to Judges
liagcnman, Brakeman aud Buskirk for
an Injunction to rcsuain the Commissioner
OF Highways from tearing up the track,
Tut the motion was denied.
Meanwhile as fast as the other track
Was torn up, Il force of the BCrks County
Railroad WOrkmcu laid down lis ties and
rails over the disputed ground, and con-
linucd the work with u large force on
Tuesday until the afternoon when an In
junction granted by Justice Read Of the
supreme CONT in Philadelphia WAS served
ON them To prevent them laying auy more
track or using what they had laid. The
track Was already laid, however, as far a.
intended. A hearing On this injunction
will take place in Philadelphia ON Satur
dav next.
Reading is intensely excited over the
matter aud on Tuesday night rumol
Was extensive y circulated that the Z. ~
X Road had "A large force Of 800 men out
side the city which it intended TO bring In
aud tear up the track laid by the Berkf
county company. The rumor appeared
howoyrr TO De- unlOundrd.
The 4. ~ X. Company has cansed the
arrest of the Commissioner Og highways

diatcly discharged ON their own rrrogni
