sit seems that we have no remedy
for the Credit Mobiier swiudle so far as
it pertains to the recovery Of the stolen
funds. Last October a Credit Mobiier
suit was tried at Hartford Conn, in which
the United States government brought an
action TO recover against parties who had
realized from the swindlc. The decision
Of the case was reserved and the case has
only day or two since been decided by
United States judges Hunt aud Chapman.
The motion of the defendants counsel to
dismiss the bill was decided in favor Of
the government On the second point,
the demurrer, the court sustains the dc.
murrer and dismisses the bill as to the
parties who demurred. The ground Of
the demurrer is that the damage to the
government by the Credit Moblier frauds
is too remote to be reached by the process
pursued, or by any other, and that the
government has at present no pecuuiary
interest to be reached by the bill The
court takes the view that there is no trust
