poiuted . committee to receive the
Sian,ese Prince, who b expected here
In . short .ime. He will have the

In y gold suuG.box. and will douat.

THE RAILROADS TO BE Sued.
While the striking freight han<1len
keec on the even tenor Of their way,
while the poor italian greenhorns
grQan and sweat over the arlluos's
labor they have undertaken, and
while commerce lidxets 1t the loss to
which she has zen subjected BY the
stupidity, avidity and rightly Of the
ratlroad companies, the New York
Board Of Trade and Transportation
have gne to work In earnest to
strsighten things out. Attorney Gen.
eral Russell met the committee on
Freight Grievances on Thursday and
after . brief discussion, promised
that he would ut once begin acti0us
In the name Of the people Of the
state to compel the corporations to
receive and deliver freight. During
the afternoon, Assistant Attorney
Kee3er and lawyer sterne were en-
gagged In drawing up papers on
which the Supreme Court WAS asked
yesterday to grant mandanus co'm-
polling the n. Y. Central 4 Hud1on
river, and the n. Y. Lake Erie 4
Western to perform their duties -
common carriers. The Board o.
Trade Committee has received ap-
plicsti0ns from more than thirty
merchants and shippers to have their
claims for damage against the rail-
road companies prosecuted. The
amount involved b $OO, 600. It b
computed that the additional amour:
the railroad companies would have t"
10Y to meet the strikers demands
would be sl,out 500 day, but rather
than submit to 80 terrible an extor-
ton, they haye allowed the COM
merce OF the city to suffer to the ex-
tent Of 81. (sN 0O day.
