erected over the door of the engine

Annapolis and Elkridge RaiIroad.

1t is learned that while the direc-
tors of tho Annapolis and Elkridge
Railroad have assured the trustees
that no further effort will be made re-
sisting the sale of the road, it is un-
likely that they will surrender the
possession of the road without a
struggle. 1t is not improbable, there
fore, that as last resort the railroad
company will seek to estop the sur
render of the road by process of in
junction, basing their conduct upon
the ground of the fraudulent issue OF
a large number Of the bonds in dis
pute.
Since the decision Of the Court of
Appeals in the Annapolis and Elk
ridge Railroad case the trustees have
laid an injucntion on the deposits of
the company in the Farmers Nation
oil Bank of Annapolis, restraining the
payment of moneys to the railroad
authorities until the pending case is
disposed of. In the meantime the
bank officials refuse to recognize
either the trustees or the company in
the matter The railroad officials
have, therefore, discontinued their
deposits for the present, and, it is
said, have sufficient funds on hand to
pay off their employees at present

B CITY IN PERIL,
THE WATER RAPIDLY RISING
The River Solid Mass of Ice, Flf-
teen I Get High, For Five Miles
Sewers and Easements Flooded
The City in Total Darkness.

GRAND RAPIDS, MroH., Jan. Son Fri
day night last an ice jam began at Big
Boom, eight miles above Grand Haven, and
about midnight Saturday night there was
a solid gorge Of ice, varying from four to
fifteen feet in thickness, to this city. The
water began settling back and tho rapids
and dam are now one solid mass of ice aud
nearly level from the Lake Shore Railroad
bridge, below tho city, to Big Bend, e vo
miles north of the city, and the water is
rising at tho rate Of foot an hour.
Yesterday afternoon the ice moved off
the rapids and piled up fifteen feet high
below tho city. The water has risen very
rapidly, and now floods all the sewers aud
easements along Canal street. Tho sido-
walks along the entire length of the street
are piled with goods. The Touring mills
are flooded and their contents have been
removed
The Jail basement is flooded, and the
prisoners were compelled to go to bed to
keep warm, because the furnace cannot be
lun. The city was in total darkness last
night. The water is now rs high as at the
time of the great log jam in July, 1888, and
another great rise will flood the whole
north end of tho city on the west side.
People are rapidly moving out of their
houses in that locality. The police force
has been doubled to secure safety to prop.
erty and life.
