AS the result of the contamination of the /
sale of the present depot grounds of the
st. Paul g. Pacific company for the Union
depot, that company is compelled to seek |
other quarters for its freight depots. 10 |
this end the company have secured steam
shovel and with special train of dump cars
they commenced yesterday to fill in the en-
tire fiat below Broadway, between Third
street and the river. The steam shovel
can move 1900 yards of
earth per day, and the filling will
REQUIRE 200 days of hard work. The COM
pany also began Yesterday the foundation for
two large freight houses, 400 feet long by SO
feet wide, to be built of brick and fre-proof.
These buildings are to be erected on the flat
where the fill is being made. No time will
be lost in their erection in order to vacate the
union depot ground at the earliest possible
moment. $3.50 zSa
~ Mr.. Farley's Great Suit. z
The happy consolation was entertained
that with "the sales'' etc., after much litiga-
ton, all the difficulties of the st. Paul & Pa
cifc railroad company were at an end. The
Aattering JUNCTION has proved delusion in
view of what occurred yesterday. That
"what" is the beginning of a new suit invol-
wing $4,O00,OO0 or thereabouts In
other words Mr.. J. P. Farley
began suit yesterday against George A.
Stephen, Norman w. Kittson and J. j.. Hill
to recover a sum figuring up close in the
neighborhood of $4,OOO,OOO AS is known
MIR. Farley is receiver of the st. Paul Il Pa
cific railroad, and his Office will expire within
day or two. The others, Stephen, Kittson
and Hill are king bees in the, new manage
ment of the st. Paul &. Pacific under its
new name of the St.. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba Railroad company.
The complainant, Mr. Farley, in this big
suit, claims that he. Hill and Kittson as early
as 1875 formed combination to buy out
the Dutch bondholders of the st. Paul &
Pacific railroad and thus obtain control of
it. This project was disclosed to George A.
Stephen, and he agreed to furnish the money
with the understanding that he was to enjoy
the property rights, etc., of the pur-
chase to the extent of two-ffths of all
bonds bought, and that Farley, Hill and
Kittson would be entitled to e-fith of al
benefits arising from the purchase. In fur
therance of thes scheme ssthe Dutch bonds,'
to the amount of $4,000, 900, or nearly so
but was eventually done, and, as claimed BY
SA1lu0AAy eAAO Souo0 "AASAA AAeso ASN -
effect to thelate adjustment of all outstanding
difficulties whereby the road has come int
the management of the st. Paul, Minneapo
lis & Manitoba railroad company. But il
this arrangement, SO nearly completed
while Hill and Kittsen and Stephen hav
figured conspicuously, Farley alleges he ha
wrongfully been ignored, and his claim to
share in all the proceeds, ETC., has bee1
absolutely unprovided for in any instance
To right himself and secure a share to al
the rights enjoyed under the new manage
mentthe suit is instituted. The complain
has been duly fled and service made upo
Messrs. Kittson, Hill, Stephen, Kennedy an
others of the new management.
That Mr.. Farley is in earnest is evider
from the above. But further confrms
ton was elected from Mr.. Farley himself b
a GLOBE reporter.
The matter of the suit was introduced
and Mr.. Farley declared he had right an
equity on his side, and that he meant vige
in what he had begun.
He, in substance, repeated what is state
boye, as his reasons for the suit, and Il
