sci representing large numbers OF hondholders,
both here and in New York. and counsel OF the CON-
pany, asking tho appointment of General William G.
wickham, the Vice President Of the road receiver

receiver.
After hearing arguments both sides, and after an
examination of all tho papers filed in the case
Judge Bond delivered important opinion,
recng history of the case already reported in the
HERALD. He refused TO Mr. Tyson, the present
receiver, upon the ground that his appointment

rary Such would create great confu
sion among all persons who have dealings with the road
and would give great uncertainty to the proceedings Of
the Court there but few days remaining before
the regular hearing OF the motion for permanent re-
ceiver. am OF opinion tho Court ought TO give all
the bondhoders of like interest and indeed all per-
having any interest in the subject matters OF the
proceeding and in the preservation OF the property
pledged, an equal cpance to DO heard meantime the
Court has hesitation in saying TO the petitioners that
Mr. Wickham is not at all Objectionable to the Court

four years by his activity the republican side of
politics in this State, but more especially
by his persistent pushing, both q lobbyist
and member OF the Legislature OF the
notorious Lee and New Haven Railroad job But what
makes talk in political circles is the fact that
Judd is the principal agent OF Mr.. p. c. Baird of Lee
Baird nominated for Councillor He is also on tho
Republican State Central Committee Since his arrest
1t has come out that he Is good deal snarled up nan-
cially. He has note for $500 in a Plttsfeld
bank, given to secure Senator L. J. Orcutt, of Cum
mington, for money loaned Judd when they
in the Legislature together, and supposed to
be ndorsed by Judd's father IL has also
Pttsdeld, loses $500 through check which Judd OBJ
tanned false pretences and that other Pits1eld men
are out less sums through other eccentricties of the
Lee lawyer.
Judd has had for some time a reputation for sharp
ness but has not been supposed heretofore that he

learned leads TO the belief that Mr. Pond, anticipating
