Mr., DRUCKER'S SUIT.

The argument on the motion for an injunc-
ton pendente lite In the suit recently begun IN the 5u
peror Court by Ephra Drucksr against the Manhattan
Railway and the Metropolitan Elevated Railway Com
panies TO restrain them from maintaining and operating
their road In front OF the plaintiffs premises in Division
ST. was had yesterday before Judge Ingraham. william
A Duer, in opposition to the notion read the affidavit
OF Robert Galloway president Of the Manhattan
Company In which he said that not true that the
company was insolven 1t was quito able to meet all
its obligations The taxes assessed upon the property
OF the Manhattan and Metropolitan Companies had not
been paid because believed that they
sve and Illegal Proceedings had been taken 10 resist
the collection Of the taxes, and Mr. Galaway was
advised that In the end they would be declared to be
Illegal would be reduced 40 so per cent. The af
dav then rectes the suits IN which the validity OF the
tripartite agreements had been established. Robert
Hin, in affidavit says that the plaintiff told him
November last that his premises doing we'll and
that be did not care 10 sell them at all.
MI Foster then argued In support OF the motion tbat
the plaintiff had suffered very great damage from the
construction and maintenance OF the road and that the
defendants ins0vent and unable TO pay such udg
ment for damages might be obtained against them
The MetOpO tau Company In the last three years au
not made enough money It's taxes He SAID that
should be compelled to file security for such damages as
they should finally be adudged to pay. Peter b. Oney
for the Metropolitan Company said tna the only ground
which could Justify the Court Ia granting injunction
was that OF the Insolvency Of the defendants ana that
the defendants insolyent. 1t rested with the
plaintiff show that the defendants were nsolvent He
c II the injunction should be granted. Judge Ingraham
reserved his decision.
motion was then made on behalf OF the plaintiff for
order for the examination Ot Mr. Galaway az wit
that there proof that Mr. galloway had refused
to make any afdavits required OF him.

Yesterday. The members of the bondholders' com
mittoe had no private dispatches which threw hight
on the subject There was great curiosity in Wall
Street to know where the defaulter kept his account
and the pames of several well known houses were
mentioned. It was reported that State Treasurer
Polk had kept his principal account with Hall
Qarten & Co.. Of No. 90 Brosd-st., but
this was denied ut tho Office of tho firm.
SiQmurd Neustadt, the head Of the house
soid that no knew Mr.. Polk well, but
that he never had had his account. He added that
ur polk often visited his Office dnring the summer
and that he was accompanied frequently by some
of bis Tennessee friends lie denied, however. that
the State Treasurer had done any business In Ton
nessee bonds through his house
One of the members Of the bondholders' commit
tee said that he was jubilant over the news. " /
have not felt 40 we'll for months" he said, because

MAYOR w~HITTEN's APPEAL
Mayor Written of Rochester has issued the
following circular letter:
ROCHESTER,. MIMI, Aug. "a, T8s3-On the
eyeuing Of Aug. 81 a terrific cyclone struck our
city. completely destroying 1875 dwellings and
totally demolishing thelE contents. Aiarge number
T. the city, nineteen persons were killed (this Is
strictly a]ccurate) and about 100 woundeds several
OF them fatally. The ruined houses We're nearly
MI owned and occupied by mechanics and labOrers,
who have lost everything they had IN the world
except the clothing upon their persons and the
naked lots. In many cases the heads of families
are injured. The cyclone entered the county at It's
Western border, and IN its course destroyed the
crops aud buildings on about forty farms, Others
lying contiguous were damaged. and five persons
were killed outside. the city. The relief
committee has a detailed list Of I24 families, in the
city alone, entirely destitute. We appeal to the pub
lie for aid. The leading business men Of the city
are all heavy losers, ana cannot therefore,, DO as
much for the sufferers as they would wish. They
have, however, contributed literally. None Of the
public buildings have escaped damage. One school
building is destroyed, thu court house is unroofed,
the churches are seriously injured, one of them
the Methodist-demolished: the elevators and
warehouses are all wholly or partially 10 ruins.
Provisions are plentiful. Money, clothing aud car
penters are needed. One hundred thousand dol
lars expended in tools, lumber, etc, for the penni-
less would scarcely put them on their feet sufn-
GENTLY to enable them to help, themselves All
contributions are placed in the hands Of a thor
oughly organized committee of twenty-one citizens,
and may be forwarded to the undersigned.
