THE COURTS.
'AJInTTY OF TOWN BONDS.

,vponrANr DECISION OF TIE COURT OF APPEALS.
Tn, Court of Appeals has just rendered an
,muortant decision affecting the validity OF many bonds
.sed BY towns this State to assist In the building OF
railroads running through them. This action was
broueht by John 3. Cagwin against the town OF
Hancock on coupons cut from town bonds purportng
10 hsve been made by the town and issued by the Ra
road Commissioners for the town OF Hancock to aid In
the construction Of the NewYork and Oswego Midland
Railroad Company. The defense was that neither the
bonds nor coupons had legal inception for the
reason, among others, that majority OF the taxpayers
upon roll Of the town, representing tue
major part OF the taxable property appearing on sucn
roll did rot consent to bonding the town, ana hehcc
that the action Of the Railroad was ultra
vres and the bonds and coupons were null ana VoV' !"
was also claimed that the Commissioners had no auth
thoty to issue negotiable coupons and that the alleged
consents contained the Illegal fraudulent ond orpihg
condition that the bonding should release
ing the town from certain subscriptions for consider
able amounts the then worthless stock OF the railroad
company, and thus virtually the debts OF such SUD-
ecrbers by shifting them upon the town III tne way Vi

RUFUS HATCH'S SUIT.
FURTHER ARGUMENTS BEFORE JUDGE sPh

FURTHER ARGUMENTS BEFORE JUDGE sPkIE.
The argument on the motion for cOntinu-
ance of the tempory injunction granted IN the suit OF
Rufus Hatch against the telegraph companies was con-
tiuued yesterday before Judge Speir in tho Superior
Court Chambers William A. Beach. n opening his
speech support of Mr. Hachs motion said that he was
willing to the greater Eumber OF the legal pro-
positions urged by the counsel for the companies and
peciay tile proposition that the Judgment OF Justice
Barrett IN the suit Supreme Court conclusive
the right Of the companies to effect consolidation
OF their property aud interests He also admitted ihati
the contract OF January l9 had been fully executed be-
fore the beginning this suit alleged in the an
bwer, injunction ought or could be granted Dy the
Court The contract howe ver Lad no: been fully execu
ted, but remained Sill Incomplete.
The vital question in the Mr. Beach thought. was
that the issue Of the COO Of stock the stock
holders Of the Western Union Company represent its
surplus earnings Illegal and void. and that. there
fore whole contract became impossible Of execution
When the income of corporation from the exercise o
its public franchises exceeded fair interest on the cap
tai invested the excess belonged to the public. from
whose contributions the income was derived. and
therefore the stockholders OF the Western Union Com
pany had no longer any legal equitable title to these
surplus earnings which had been Incorporated with and
made part Of its permanent capital Mr. Hatch might
undoubtedly have acquiesced in the issue OF the new
etocs and would probably have gained by so doing but
this was not the question at Rsue but simply whether
the ssue of this stock just and equitable Mr. Eeach
said that did wish to parade Mr. Hatch before the
Court as especially conscientious man. or TO asscrt

CAPT. EADs STILL PUSHING HIS
PROJECT.

Capt. J. b. Eads will start for Mexico
in a few days to have his Tehauntepec
grant confirmed by the Mexican con-
gress. He will then go to Tampico,
where some of his engineers are survey
ing the harbor for the United States
government. Thence he will proceed
to the isthmus. where be will spend a
month and make IA thorough inspection
OF the route for his ship railway. He
will then sail for San Francisco and
consult the California engineers. He
will examine the mouth of the Sacra-
mento river. From there he goes TO
Oregon, where he will inspect the mouth
Of the Columbia river and Humboldt
Bay. He will then return to st. Louis
and shortly afterwards visit Toronto,
where he will inspect the harbor at the
invitation of the British government 4;
after which he will sail for England and
Holland.
Capt. Eads is thoroughly satisfied that
his ship railway scheme will be success
full. His advices from Mexico are even
more favorable than he anticipated. He
has three parties of engineers now at
work on the isthmus, and rapid advance
is being made in the surveys. The
Mexican government is also aiding him
by having eight engineers and a gang of
seventy laborers engaged in surveying
and cutting a passage twelve foot wide
through the forest, from a point on the
Uspanapa liver, SO miles from the gulf,
where the railway is to begin the pass
into the Cardilleras, sixty miles distant.
Capt. Eads says the reason why he feels
SO sur the railway will be built is be-
cause there are three possibilities, either
one Of which are almost certain. 81
believe congress will give us the legisla-
tion asked form fact 1 am almost sure
Of 1t. But IL America will not do this,
the Mexican concession to me names no
particular government. l shall carry
the grant to England and see what will
be done there. They will not be blind
to its advantages II congress is. In the
event that l cannot get government aid
l can build the railway by private enter
prise. / canvassed the situation so
thoroughly that / know this can be
done. l do not want to take this alter
native. The route by the isthmus is
only a thousand miles longer than the
average Of the transcontinental rail-
ways, and this furnishes some remedy
against tho carrying monopoly. But if
private enterprise builds the road, there
Is no guaranty that some syndicate may
not get control Of the railways as well
as of the route by the isthmus, and thus
prevent the competition which is so de-
sirable.n

Mexico is filed with Yankees as
all people from the United States are
called. These yankees" embrace en-
gineers, capitalists, tourists, spectators,
''drummers'' and adventures. The
last-named, however, are a disgrace to
II nation, as they comprise gamblers,
tramps, and other high personages Of
both sexes, who travel incognito. This
country abounds in vast natural resour-
ces, but is almost entirely undeveloped.
The gold and silver mines are worked
on the same plan as 100 years ago.
Sugar is ground, wheat gathered and
threshed, cotton spun, paper manufac-
tured, liquors distilled and cloths and
textures Of all kinds woven in the most
primitive style. In fact, all labor saw
ing machines and the latest inventions
and improvements of manufacture and
agriculture r just being introduced (;
hence the profuse abundance Of the
Yankee, who, with his usual foresight
and enterprise, sees an immense trade
to be developed with his own country.

A BERLIN correspondent of the Lon
don Times comments on the great in
crease of emigration to the United
States, and gays whole villages are des-
cribed by the local papers as emigrating
from Posen, Prussia proper and Schles-
wig. American emigration agents do
not fully set forth the advantages of the
various States they represent, as they
are warned by the American legation
that it would be unable 10 help them if
they should get into trouble with the
authorities. Mr.. Wrandel, an Ameri-
can citizen of Hungarian extraction,
who two years ago was forbidden to lee
ture in Berlin on Emigration" has
just been equally unsuccessful on a Sec
ond visit, designed to persuade the au-
thorities of the folly of impeding mi
grafton. 1t appears, however, that the
precautions against the exodus of young
men are somewhat abated in south Ger
many. The German government par
ticularly aims to divert emigration from
the United States.

A Casiilian named Lopez who keeps a

killed. Lopez, who was a keen, bright
man, some time ago shot a man whom
be charged with stealing IA span of
mules and a sum Of money from him.
The wound was only superficial and the
man got well. 1t is supposed that the
outcome was the recent tragedy. In
his safe $4,000 were found.

that Wrangel wore the same kind of
