Railroad L1tlgatiOus.

An answer was filed in Trenton, New
Jersey, yesterday, by the New Jersey
Central and the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railroad Companies, to the bill OF
complaint Of William N. Dinsmore,
President of Adams Express Company,
and adissenting stakeholder of the Cen.
tral Company, who seeks to have the
lease with the Philadelphia and Read
ing Company annulled. While admit
ting that money invested in he roads
was used for building and equipping
different branches of the line, the ans
wer claims that as large sum was ex-
pended in additions thereto and for other
purposes connected with the same en-
terprise. The answer speaks of thu EN-
barrassed condition of the Central, and
denies that by any possible economy or
wisdom Of management could the Com
pany return any such dividends as the
fancy of the complainant suggest 10 per
cent }; that no Company could make the
Central pay three per cent. under the
Circumstances, and that no more profit
able lease than the present could have
been made for the Central stockholders
The defendants admit that the lease is
profitable one for the Rea ling. The
answer also makes charges against the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. The
taking of testimony will begin in a few
days

The Frost an d the CrODs.

WAsHINGTO y, October 1t. l6.-Informa-
tion Obtained at the Weather Bureau
indicates that the frost of last night
was quite general north of the fortieth
degree o. latitude, and that tonight it
will extend considerably furthe. south
in the region east Of the Alleghenies
There was a killing frost last night at
Albany, and probably all over the
State Of New York and throughout
New England and Northern Ohio and
Illinois From reports of Temperature
at various points, it is believed that
there was light frost in Pennsy vania
and Northern Virginia and Mrryland,
the Ohio Valley and Central and North
ern Missouri. Tonight the Weather
Bureau predicts heavier frost in the
region east OF the Alleghenies. Professor
Dodge, Statist!can of the Department
OF Agriculture, says that the only crop
liable to any considerable injury in the
region affected, is tobacco, and most Of
this is probably out of tn. way. Con-
siderable Of the cotton crop is ye- in
state to be injured by the frost, but it
is not probable that of fto-night will
reach to the cotton region.

long to get under its influence, and he
was making tour of Front street, little
dreaming that he was being Swallowed
by sharpers. They, however, had spot.
ted their man and were quietly laying
for him when on opportunity offered
When Dooley arrived opposite Miner 8
alley, nst west of King street, two men
seized him, hustled him into the court
and made grab for his watch and
chain, but the latter broke and the
watch remained in his pocket. Dooley
struggled violently, but the men were
too much for him, and succeeded in
taking their victim'H pocket-bock con-
tanning about 81, together with the
chain, and fled. Dooley started off in
search of an officer, when he met officers
Nickers and Cannon, to whom he told
OF the occurrence. The officers gave
chase and soon captured the two men,
who were identified and taken to the
city hall, where they gave the names of
William McGrann and j. Z. Smith,
which are, no doubt, assumed names
They were given hearing before
Squire O'Neill last evening and held
