and twenty-four DAYS, on May %, 1880. The
rental was fixed at 80 per cent of the gross earn
ings of the leased road rolling stock equipments
etc. Ii the gross earnings were not sufficient
the lessee was to pay all taxes and insurance and
the interest coupons on the 500 of first mort
gage bonds as they accrued, and the interest
on such or the income bonds as their
holders should approve. The trustees, in
default OF any of these conditions, were at liberty
to declare the lease forfeited and take possession
of the road. Possession was then taken Of the
road by tho Wabash, which has operated it
since. They have, however, made default in
payment of the interest due July and Oct 1,
1884. and Jan. /, 1885. Through this default the
trustees under the first mortgage are entitled
to immediate possession, and have been re-
quested to take possession and manage the road
until it is sold by holders of 100000 of the
bonds. The Wabash, st. Louis & Pacific Com
pany are owners of majority of the first pre-
ferred income bonds, and control the manage
ment of the road, refusing to compel the sur
render of the lease. Upon their petition Judge
Blodgett passed an order allowing the suit to be
brought. The bill therefore asks for the APP
pointment of receiver the foreclosure and sale
of the road and leave to have the lease of the
Wabash company declared forfeited 1t is
stated, should the compliments in this case car

Trunk-Line Pool Matters in Statue Quo.
H. C. Diehl, general freight agent of the In
diana. Bloomington g. Western road, spent sew
eral days of last week in New York, and there
fore had an opportunity to ascertain what the
prospects are for continuance of the trunk-line
pool. Mr.. Diehl says the prevailing opinion is
that matters will move along much after the
present manner for few months and then will
be reorganiZed on a more permanent basis
than the pool which is now practically
only statistical bureau. Mr. Diehl
states that considerable talk is heard
of establishing a clearinghouse association.
and leading railroad men are looking carefully
into its operation in England and it is more than
possible that the trunk-line pool will be con-
verified into a clearing house association. No one
questions that in due time some organization
will be effected which will tend to harmonic
rates and aid in their maintenance. Should the
Grand Trunk carry out their seemingly present
intentions and withdraw from the pool it would
not necessarily lead to a general generalization
ih freight rates. In fact the Grand Trunk
people promise to live up strict
ly to tariff rates, providing their
competitors do. At any rate Mr.. Diehl does not
anticipate that either east or westbound rates
will 60 lower than the figures of to-day, GER
tainly not until navigation opens
