UNEXPECTED DECISION.
Mr. Tyson Made Permanent Re
ceiver of thee and D r. Knew
Officers Appointed by Him

In the United States Circuit Court
on Saturday morning, Judges Bond
and Hughes sitting, Judge Bond rem
dered the following decision in the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad case:
Richards ct ais. ~. The Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad-in Equity:
The Court has considered with
great care the application of the
bondholders in this case for the APP
pointment of a permanent receiver
| therein of their selection, and the pc
titiou of the Board of Public Works
of Virginia in opposition thereto.
The sole purpose of the appoint
ment of a receiver is to provide for
the safety of the property pending
| litigation. In this care the property
can only be secured from loss BY de-
terioration by It's constant use, The
receiver, therefore, must not only be
trustworthy, but he must be compe
tent to conduct the business OF the
defendant.
The circumstances Of the case show
that either by negligence or misman-
agement of the road itself or in the
conduct of lis financial affairs it has
been reduced to bankruptcy.
Its d, bt is enormous, and whether
/ this rcSul + from miSmanarement or
misfortune, certain it is that none
but the secured creditors are likely
to realize any dividend from the pro-
seeds of sale of the property Of the
defendant.
Now the proposition is that the
court remove its present receiver, and
appoint another, who has all along
been connected with the present
management of the company, and
who is responsible in a degree for
the present unfortunate bankrupt
condition of the railroad, whether
that condition be the result OF mis-
| fortune or negligence.
1t seems TO the Court to do this
would be to decide now IN liminc that
there had been no Encouragement
or negligence in the past conduct OF
the affairs of the defendant company,
and that lis condition was the result
solely of the depression in mercan-
tile affairs.
A receiver, while it is not necessa-
nv that he should be sntagonistic to
the officers of the company, ought at
least to be an indifferent person as
between the parties. The unsecured
creditors, though they may have lit
tie hope of ultimate payment, ought
II have the full assurance that the
affairs OF the road will be administer
ed by impartial hands, and should be
satisfied that if they get nothing it
will be becau.. there va. nothing 10
be gotten.
1t does not appear to give strength
TO the application Of the bondhoId-
erS under the first and second mort
cages that these bonds are now CON
trolled or represented BY the parties
who have managed the financial and
business affairs Of the road hereto
fore; but even We're it the fact that
they had individually selected the
person named for receiver it ia, in
the exercise of the sound discretion
OF ths Court, better for all parties
that the appointment Of the present
receiver be made permanent. And
we both concur, and shall require
the receiver to give additional secu-
rity for the faithful performance Of
his trust in the sum of one hundred
thousand dollare.
This decision was received with
Huntington advertiser. [volume] (Huntington, W. Va.) 1874-1921, 1875-11-04
considerable astonisbment by the

considerable. astonishment by the
large number Ut persons present.
Mr. Mcfarland, of New York,
Immediately moved, on behalf OF the
plaintiff, 10 file a supplemental and
amended bill. and his petition was
granted. and until the first Monday
in December given him to do so.
The order of court continues Mr..
Tyson as temporary receiver until he
can qualify and give bond as perma
nent receiver.
All the present orders in the case
are intermediary. The case will not
mature for hearing Cd the bill and
answers. petitions and like proceed
ings until the regular term in April
next. The bill prays for u fore
closure OF deeds, the settlement Of
all claims upon the company, and
also prays for the temporary appoint
ment OF receiver. This latter prayer
has been complied with, and the
case will now 60 on at rules until It
natures for bearing at the spring
tenn of The court.
Mr.. Tyson on Saturday appointed
Captain W. NJ. S. Dunn, who has
been engineer ana superintendent Of
transportation. general manager Of
the railroad. General Williams &.
Wickham, who is vice-president of
the company, will hereafter have few
or no duties to perform. Captain
Dunn is well known here as a good
railroad man, and Is popular gen.
tleman.
There were rumors of other ap.
po:ntments, but there was no truth
in them. Mr.. Tyson mtimatel on
Saturday his purpose to retain In
place the present officers and em-
ployees of the company as far as con
sistent with the economical and pro-
per management of the railroad
Richmond Dispatch.

A YEAR AGO.

In the pleas summer weather,
When the sun was low,
side by side we walked together
just a year ago.
In the West the crimson glory
Slowly died away,
" told the old sweet story
At the close OF day.
JOY, till then in lie denied ne
set my heart at rest,
As the fair young face beside me
Conscious love confessed
All the hopes that hovere! DER us
Youth alone can know:
Life and love were all before us
just a year ago.
INST a vear-the sky is clouded,
And the shadows fall:
In grave my hopes lie shrouded-
Death has won them all.
Loved and lostl The tie is broken;
Cold are lip and brow;
Words of love, though warmly spoken
Cannot reach her nov.
Joy has vanished, hope is perishei.
Dreams of youth are vain;
Zen the love by Memory cherished
Thrills the heart with pain.
Gone for ever-sorrow only
Future life can know,
Since she died and left me lonely
just year ago.
