10 eyadc thi> Injunction the Western Union
issued certificates OF indrbt, dncs-, which
were transferred Though the Union Tru>t
Company, and he thereupOn applied for
an order TO show cause why these two

for contempt in violating The in
junction order. This beng the re-
turn day, counsel for both sides presented
themselves before jude Speer in the Supe-
riOr Court chambers. Counsel from the
American Union ana Atlantic ana Pacific

sent motion. He said it was OF vital inter
est 10 these companies, a. they had parted
with their property ana the contract bad
not been performed. In the petition PEE
spnted for this purpose he bad also declared
his intention Of applying for dissolution
Of the Injunction on the ground tadt these
companies had not been fully heard, ard on
the ground Of newly-di, covered facts.

dispatch says: The ReUUe POhliQue will
contain Saturday to-day an article ON
! Alexander ILL.,, written by a Russian OF
| high position, who is intimately acquainted
with the Cars ideas and character. The
writer says the new car will take up the
| following measures: Great reduction in
peasants payments for land thorough re-
modelling OF taxation: facilities for migra-
ton from one province To another; Passport
| facilities, and The establishment OF rural
| banks. thus putting down The petty u,ureTs.
| The writer foreshadOwS the arrest OF the

| resistance to Pan Slav>m, and dwellS on
the Cars thoroughly Russian sentiments,
| his love for The peasan'ry, and dtte.tati0n
OF administrative corruption. The Gar
will do his utmost 10 improve the situation
OF the cIergy, giving greater freedom 10 the

cial administration. The Car will consent
to let the country share IN the management
| Of afiliis 10 certain limit and extent.

| deputies with a mere consultative vote
on fixed subject. He probably will
not depart from the system Of liberal ordI-
nances in regard 10 the freedom OF the press,

the abolition OF administrative exile. He

will strive 10 maintain good relations with
Germany, towards whom his attitude Will
| be sensibly the same as was that OF his
father. France will enjoy more marked
sympathy. The relations with Austria
have the appearance OF dstrus.. In any
case the triple alliance will not be seen

more cordial, probably on account OF the

neither read nor write, and who there

rather rambling speech IN which he
advocated the pigment III the State debt,

That gentleman tbereupon bad offered a
