A phrase in the letter of casual CORE
spondent concerning Judge Iioar and the
ief-Justiceship, "a published in yesterdays
TRIBUNE, ought not to pass without word OF
correction. The correspondent spoke OF Judge
Hoar as being appointed, at the suggestion OF
his cousin and predecessor, Mr.. Evarts, to b.
President Grants first Attorney General We
know, on the best authority, that Mr.. .Eyarts
never gave any suggestion of the kind. On
the contrary, we are advised that he was en-
tirely ignorant that such an appointment was
in contemplation, and had, indeed, no sus-
picion that Judge Hoars name had been con-
sidered with reference to the Office until after
the appointment had been sent to the Senate.

The old suit brought by Azariah Boody against
Daniel Drew Milton Cartwright, Kenyon Cox and
William Bays, growing out of the Toledo, Wa
bash and Western Railroad pool, which has been
pending in the courts for several years, has at
length come to trlal before Judge Van Brunt in
Supreme Court Special Term. The purpose OF the
suit is TO compel the defe ndants TO render an ac
counting Of transactions by them In the stock Of
the Toledo, Wabash and Western Railroad. In
December, 1871, pool was formed to get control
OF the stock OF the company and operate IN the
same, the basis OF the operation being, as pro-
posed, 7l,ooo shares, the TRANSACTIONS being
through Kenyon Cox Il Co., and the plaln-
tn TO take IL, 500 shares. Kenyon Cox Il
Co. reported at the close OF operations
that they were carrying 500 shares at value Of
S6,707,6i9 3d. OF which Boody's portion was II, 500
shares, at value OF s1.152, 936 6S. 1t Is now
claimed bv Bo0dy that some OF the managers OF
the pool operated through 1t on their own private
account, and a iu accounting is sought in the
present suit. For the defence 1t Is claimed that
Boody. was not the sole party IN interest and
should have joined with him in the suit, James p.
Souter and William Turnbuli 1t is further alleged
that the management OF the pool was lett eXclu-
slvey to Kenyon Cox Il Co., and that II an action
was TO be brought against any one 1t should be
against the members OF that firm, OF which Daniel
Drew IS q member. The trial promises to occupy
several days.

RUNAWAY HORSES.

A simple Method or Controlling Them.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
There are SO many accidents from horses run
ming away that think it would be we'll to let the
public know how 1t may be remedied and lives
saved. 1t Is simply this:-
Take small cord, tie a loop at one end, pass
the loop over the horse's head, attach it with a
string the throat latch 80 that it will not fal
too far down; let the other end pass into the car
rage II the horse runs oil you have to do is to
pull on the cord which Will choke the horse and
lnialioy stop him in minute two, as he can
not run II his breath Is stopped. As soon as he
stops let go the cord and suffer him again to
breathe.
The philosophy of the operation is very obvious
and any vice Which . horse may show can be
arrested by this means Alter Two or three trials
the horse Will at once recognize the slightest pull
on the cord and viii at once be controlled
