RAILROAD LITIGATION.

In Supreme Court General Term yesterday, there
was a lengthy argument the appeal taken in the
suit brought by julius G. Brown against the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company. Itappears that between
the defendants. the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and st.
Louis Railroad Company and the Columbus, Chi
cago and Indiana Central Railroad Company, y tri-
partite agreement entered into, by which the
defendants agreed ON certain conditions, among
which was one that thirty per cent of the gross
earnings Of the road should be deposited with q
trust company to guarantee payment Of the bonds
of the Columbus, Chicago and Indiana Central Rail-
road Company ON the bonds there being stamped
the words. Payment of the interest and principal
the entire series of bonds mentioned herein is
guaranteed by the Pttsburg, Cincinnati and ST.
Louis Railroad Company and the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company In the complaint the plaintiff
alleges that he bought the faith of this indorse
and Indiana Central Railroad Company, and
that the defendant paid the interest
the same until April 1, 1875, after which
time further payments were made. He sues
two years coupons the bonds. demurrer
interposed on various technical grounds, but the
between the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and the
Columbus, Chicago and Indiana Central Railroad COM
pany does not inurc to the benefit of the creditors of
the latter company. On the other hand. 1t is
claimed that the status of the complainant, IL
taken true, shows such action the part OF the
defendants estops them from denying their liabl-
ity to the creditors of the Columbus, Chicago and
Indiana Central Railroad Company; that their action
in paying the coupons for several years is an
sumption of their duty to continue paying and that
the receipt of moneys for the beneht OF the bond
holders makes them trustees for the bondholders.
The Court took the papers. Messrs. Augustus G.
Brown and William A. Beach appeared for the plain
till and Mr.. Stanley Matthews for the defendants.

NEW ORLEANS PRIZE MONEY.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
beg leave to call your attention to great injustice
that has been done us. the sailors and marines of
the feet that captured New Orleans in 1862 from the
rebels. We who volunteered our services in that
feet received big bountes in those early days of
the Nor do we ask for any now: all we want
is that Congress, whoever is responsible for it,
should pay us the balance of our prize money,
which is lawfully due us. We have received
two instalments and there is third due us. When
we received the last one they told should get
the third or last one soon That is over three years
ago, and we have not received it yet Just think Of
t-seventeen years since we fought and earned that
money There is no for not paying us. 1t is

GUMBLETON'S BOOKS.

decision was given yesterday by Judge Donohuo
on the application to make permanent the temporary
stay granted the writ of mandamus allowed by
Judge Barrett directing County Clerk Gumbleton 10
permit examination Of the books in his Office by
j. Airance Bush. The following is his opinion
which, as will be seen. is merely supplementary
to the previously granted by him in
the prior similar proceedings instituted by
the Bar Association committee: THE motion
for the stay in this matter noticed for the first
Monday of February, but at the request OF the re-
lators was heard the Doth inst A full considera-
ton of the case, after carefully going all the
facts, shows reason to change the conclusion
reached in the above opinion on the former motion.
1t is be regretted that apparently strong feeling
both sides should have become part of the case but
that does not change the rule that should govern the
result here. Good faith is pledged by counsel
Of good standing in taking the appeal here, and no
ground is shown to prejudice the REALTORS rights by
the delay. To make tho appeal of any use. stated
in tho former opinion. stay Is necessary and should
be granted There il reason in the ordinary course
of events why the questions sought TO be disposed Of
should not be finally disposed of by the court Of last
resort within the next ninety days No instance has
been cited where. a similar application, stay has
been refused. Motion granted

1T Ia q curious fact that the cur
tailed crop Of the cereals which is
now threatened in all portions of
California but our own is already
apprsclable in the price OF flour. 1t
10 raising and the end is by no
means yet. 1t is pleasant to reflect,
in view Of such movement in the
staff Of life, that, without n doubt,
we shall this year produce, in this
county, of wheat, corn and barley,
four or five times the quantity
needed for the consumption of our
own population. Should the rains
still be delayed north and continue
as they have begun, copious here,
Los Angeles county will be far
more opulent than her best friends
have,thought possible.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-01-21

THE probability of a drouth this
year, In northern and central Cali.
lifornia, is too stern reality to be
poch-pooh-ed. 1t is now Immi-
nent, and it is o drouth independ-
ent of the rainfall. The raius sim
ply threaten to be too late to ma
ture crops, however abundant they
may be. AS We have said before,
we do Eot doubt but that, even in
Alta California, the rains would
this year have been more than suf-
ficient to mature crop If they had
fallen seasonably. But we doubt
their so falling. The San Joaquin
valley has already been retired
from the crop yielding area this
year, while even the Sacramento
valley is hanging by the eye.lids.
We regret this dispensation of the
weather clerk, but there will be
some local consolation if our own
farmers shall come out ahead, as q
result.
