Question OF Contempt.

preme court, today, decisions were rendered
in the Sprague cases. The bill in equity
brought by the Quidnick Company against
Zachariah Chafee, trustee of the Sprague
estate. for lien on the stock of the Quid-
nick Company new held by Trustee Chafee,
was dismissed, it being decided by the court
that, as the Quidnick Company accepted the
mortgage notes in settlement of its claim, it
had no lien on the stock in Chafee's hands.
The bill in equity, Zachariah Chafee ct al. VS..
Quidnick Company, praying that the Quid-
nick stock held by Chafee may be sold, or
other relief had for the Sprague creditors in
regard to the stock, was dismissed, unless
awarded by Saturday next, on the ground that
it was multifarious. The petition of C. Farms
worth, receiver of the Quidnick Company,
that Gen. B. +. Butley, Gen. Roger A. Pryor

Company, show cause why they should not

nick Company in New York, on account of
claims for legal services was heard. Gen.

and had no part in the proceeding in New
York He had right to sell his claim and
had made no attachment. He further claimed
that the court had no control over the prop
erty Of the Qpidnick Company in New York.
The court took the matter under advisement.
