the only reason Il was withheld. Dyson's
tedimony was exactly What occurred. j

scyf,ed: hence withheld the injunction.
THE vote was taken on the award OF the
contract on "Wednesday the 10Th. do not

You said awhile ago that the Governor
asked the Auditor to suspend operations.

"Mr. Alien contemplated o personal at

about Kendall until the Board convened.
At Snelling's bar-room Tuesday night
Allen did remark that the agent oil the

On the contrary, he only wanted 10 give
him an opportunity to vindcate himself.
THE RECORDS OF THE BOARD
were then brought in and offered as evil

place. The defence rested the case here.
and by agreement OF counsel on both sides
argument was not opened, and the Court
was asked to deliver opinion.
The Court read the statute under which
action had been brought, and then in brief
but succinct terms gave reasons for honor
ably dismissing the ease.
Afterwards Messrs. Kendall and Sheldon
were warmly congratulated by friends
among whom were noticed Mr.. Witt, pro-
scouting attorney, and Attorney-General

years has untringly devoted her time and talents

ton and wants OF this numerous class, and, as
result of this effort, and practical knowledge OBJ

An Amended Bill.

Attorney General Blair yesterday, before
the examination in the Police Court was
concluded, filed an amended bill in the
Kendall case, setting forth, among other
things, that ''the said George II. Kendall,
agent OF said company, has made corrupt
and unlawful propositions TO Hon. II.
III. Dyson and ID. X. Revely, OF what
the Commonwealth cannot now explicitly
define, but so she AYERS and Will he able TO
prove that the said company has thus made
unlawful propositions, either in person or
through others, 10 Hons. 5. Brown Allen,
VI. ii. Dyson, and ID. II. Revely," &C., &C.,
and asking that "tbe mandate heretofore
granted by your Honor Judge Welford]
on the DIST instant be so enlarged rs to pro-
iibit the said Board and Kendall Company,
its secretary, and all other persons, from
all further action, enforcement, or rights
under the said supposed contract and
bond, such as printing. engraving, litho-
graphing notes, furnishing any stamp to
impress, or in any way acting under said
contract and bond; that the said contract
and bond be cancelled, revoked, and an
nulled for the reasons contained in this and
the former bill"
Judge Wexford ordered that the afore-
said parties be required 10 show cause this
morning, April 2S, 1882, at the courthouse
of this court, why the prayer of the said
amended ill should not be granted, and IN
the mean time the said Board of Commits
sioners OF the Sinking Fund and the said
Kendall are enioined and restrained from
anv further proceedings under the contract
referred TO in said bill.
One OF the averments OF the bill is that
the bond was prepared by Edgar Allan,
ESQ.,, and that the suretics thereon were
not approved by the Attorney-General.
The majority of the Board finding that
Mr. Blair would not act, employed Mr..
Allan to do the attorneys work.
