Denver, June 22.-A special from San
ia Fe, N. NJ, says the case of the Texas
Pacific railway company ys. the Southern
Pacific railway company came up in the
United States circuit court to-day. The
plaintiffs, through their attorneys, filed
a bill which sets forth that the defendant
is trespasser and is encroaching upon
the lands of the complainant, and that
the defendant hurried on its work, for
the purpose of preventing the complain
ant from using and enjoying its land
grant. The complainant therefore asks
that the court award to it at just and
equitable figure, all the lines of railroads,
rolling stock. improvement, etc., in the
territory of New Mexico, owned and op.
Grated by the defendant. The answer of
the defendant sets forth that the COM
plainant has not proceeded with the use
of its road within the time prescribed by
congress, and furthermore denies that
the grant constitutes q franchise, but
aver that the United States never had
any of the property. The defendant ex-
presses Willingness 10 pay to the com.
plainant $4,000, which it says Is more
than the actual value Of the land taken
At conclusion of the reading of the bills
adjournment was taken until tomorrow
morning at 10 a. m. Both parties are
represented by able counsel, and the
greatest interest is manifested in the
suit.
