Judge Drummond Enters an Order
Postponing the Sale of That Railroad
Till Monday. the 10th Instant.

In the case of the Union Trust Com
pany, of New York, vs.. the Rockford, Rock
island and st. Louis railroad company, the
sale of that road and its appurtenances,
under the decree of foreclosure, was to
have been made to-day, by Mr.. Bishop,
Master in Chancery. but the sale did not
take place. Hon Lyman Trumbull, solicit
tor for the complainant, presented petit
ton to the master asking for
A PosTPoNEMENT OF THE SALE
on the following grounds:
First, that there is combination which
will prevent competition. and result in the
sale of the property at less than its real
value.
Second, that it is the intention of the
German bondholders, represented by their
agent, II: Osterberg, to the amount OF
"a. 0O0,0 900 or $5,000,O00. to bid upon said
road at said sale, but that in corresponding
with the committee representing said bond
holders in Frankfort, Germany, by tele,
graph, some confusion has arisen as to his
instructions, which prevents his bidding
intelligently at this time; that he expects
to be able to bid for said property in CASE
the sale is postponed for short time.
This petition was

REASONS WHY.-The reasons why DR..
Prices True Flavoring Extracts, Lemon,
Vanilla, etc., are superior to all others is
because they are prepared from the
choicest selected fruits and aromatics
without coloring or poisonous oils; that
all the favoring principles are retained un.
changed by chemical action, highly con
centrated, requiring less to favor; that
there is no deception in bottles as they
hold one-half more than those sold for the
