FIGHT OF CRossTowN RAILROADS
RAPID TRANSIT.

In the suit OF Pa,tcn VS.. the New York Elevated
Railroad the appeal not from any judgment OF the
Common Pleas given after trial, but from an order
upon affidavit granting preliminary Injunction before
trial The appeal taken with great doubt TO It's
success, for by strange anomaly or probably
oversight In the code. while appeal be taken IRON
such an order when made in the Supreme Court. II
seems not TO be appealabc when madc IN the Common
Pleas. II thought best, however, TO test
the question, Tor II tho Court OF Appeals
could bc induced 10 look into the matter a
trial could probably be rendered unnecessary
The Court Of Appeals mas, however, decided, was
ted, that the order not appcaiablo and
hence dismissed the appeal The merits OF the case
have in wise been touched. Meantime the cause
has been noticed, and Is the calendar Tor trial
before Judge Won Hocsen Of the Court of Common
Pleas the trial having been postponed from day day

probably be tried to-day. 1t will be remembered that
a similar injunction was granted in the Ninth avenue
case, which, after delay and stopparc OF work tor
four months was finally tried and the Injunction dis
solved
II seems to be the fate OF all railroad improvements
in this city that they must wade TO iina victory
and pubic usefulness through sea Of injunctions,
but whose cost those who indulge in the luxury
