NEw YoRE. July @
On November 4, 1874. Mrs. Nancy Stokes,
mother cf Edward s. Stokes. who was then the
owner of the Standard Oil Works at Hunters
Point, with her husband, Edward II. Stokes,
since deceased, gave n mortgage on the prop
crty of $4,000 to Ccphas Brainard. This
mortgage was assigned to Cassius II. Read, pro-
prietor of the Hoffman houSc. He forecio--d
1t and bought in the oil works on the 19:h Of
May last for Sl20,O00. Soon afterward Jabcz
A. Bostwick & Co.. oil refners who held q
lease from Mrs Stokes at $4,000 year. ex-
piring May I, 1878, began proceedings to de-
bar the completion of the sale, alleging thst
the purchase had been made by CaSsius II.
Read for the benefit Of Mrs. Nancy Stokes and
Edward S. Stokes, through n combination
against Bostwick & CO.. as lcSSccS, and
that Mrs. Nancy Stokes had sup
piled Mr.. Read with the purchase money.
They claimed that Mr.. Read was the only hid
der at the sale; that he did not sign the terms
Of the sale; and that he did not pay any money
down, rs was required, except the expenses Of
the sheriff. They claimed further that the
purchase was for the purpose Of setting Ed
ward s. Stokes up in the oil business, either rs
Mr.. Reads partner or agent OF alone, and that
Stokes had Threatened to dispnsscss them,
which threat, If carried out. would greatly in-
jure their business rs they had over SlOo,O 900
invested there, and could not readily change
their location. They prayed for an injunction
restraining Cassius II. Read from receiving the
deed to the property from the sheriff Of King
county, and staying all proceedings looking tO
their dispossesSion.
The injunction was obtained on June I. On
the application of Mr.. franklin Bartlett, At.
torncy for Mr.. Read, Justice Gilbert granted
IN order ON the Goth Of June to show why the
injunction should not be dissolved. On the
25th Of June Mr.. W. o. Bartlett, of counsel for
Mr. Read, argued the motion. The affidavit
Of Mr.. Cassius II. Read, which was read, re-
cited that 1t was his intention to embark in
the oil business Us soon rs he could get posses
sion Of his oil works. He sworc, as did Mrs,
Stokes, that no money was furnished him to
purchase the mortgagcd property, and that she
did not aid or cooperate in the foreclosure,
Mrs Stokes swore that she never saw Read in
her life, and that her son Edward was not hel
agent, and had not acted rs such in the matter
Justice Gilbert yesterday granted the motor
to dissolve the injunction.

Tho gentlemen inter estcd in boating matters
are now anxiously awaiting the arrival of the
18th Of July. on which date race will take
place between the famous yachts, Americus
and Ella Trcadwcll. These well known and
be II ilul vessels haze en- ;ng d in two previous
contests, each one scoring a victory, which fact
makes the result of the approaching "bout' so
much moro matter of exciting conjecture.
In or,lcr to fairly test the merits of the craft,
the race has been arranged to start from n
point opposite Glymont, and sail twenty miles
down the river and return. The prize will be
II handsome silk l'ennant, and the rules usually

steamer Charlotte Vanderbilt has been secured,
