RAILROAD MATTERS.

James q HERMAN of Ogdensburgh,
the attorneys for the plaintiffs in the ac-
ton of Robert l., Day against the Ogdens-
burgh and Lake Champlain railroad com
pany and Others, involving the rights of
the holders of the income mortgage
bonds Of the company, have received the
written opinion of Justice Tappan upon
the denial of the motion made by Messrs.
Vanderbilt and Depew, as trustees for
the bondholders of the Lamoille Valley
Extension railroad company and by the
New York Central and Hudson River
railroad company, to dissolve the injunc-
ton granted by Justice Landon A por-
ton of the opinion is as follows: "Assum-
ing for the purpose of this motion the
validity of the assignment, | am of the
opinion that the plaintiffs establish for
themselves and the older holders of the
Lake Champlain railroad a prima facie
right to the net income of that company
so far as 1t is necessary to pay the interest
thereby stipulated to be paid thereon, and
to have such net income, if amy, ascer-
tanned and declared and paid upon such
bonds. The bonds so stipulate, and the
agreement operates rs an equitable AS
signment of the net income of the com
pany AS fast as the same accrueS, to be
held in trust by it until ascertaned and
paid to the income bondholders, which
trust can be enforced against the com
pany and others who have notice of this
| trnst"
At the annual meeting of the stockhold
ers of the Boston and Lowell railroad
| held in Boston Wednesday the following
named directors were elected, each re
ceving 9S29 ballots, all that were cast

100 acres, for $1,000 This property has
proved to be very valuable, Mr.. Barker
still owns the home farm of no acres, on
which are two veins of sea green slate, one
leased by Griffith 81 Nathaniel and the
other by the Garfield Slate company of
Boston.
One night recently II tramp named Carr
entered a barn on the Frank Grout place
i'm East Gilmore, and killed one OF the best
cows in II most brutal manner, driving
nine different articles, consisting OF an
iron horse-r tooth, Il shovel handle, and
several pieces of board, some of them three
feet long, into the abdomen of the animal.
The house was unoccupled so he had a
good chance to do mischief. His cane be-
ing bloody was what first led to the dis
covery by II. II. Bangs, who has charge
of the farm. Carr is pauper from Wood
bury.
Deputy Sheriff Shumway of Jamaica,
who held warrant for the two young
Towards who are supposed to have robbed
the Butler store at East jamaica New
ears night, got telegram from Sheriff
Mccall of Bennington, Friday, saying
that he had one of his men safe and would
soon have the other. SUBWAY left I'M
mediately for Bennington and returned
Saturday evening, with his prisoners.
Both waived examination, and for want
of bail were committed to Jail at Newfane
to await their trial at the March term of
court.
There is another war among the lum-
bermen at WeStmOre. It seems That the
Vermont Lumber company sold Mr..
Heady "A tract of timber land in regard to
which there was some misunderstanding.
Mr. Heady claims that Clifford & circuit
who get out and saw the lumber for the
company were cutting and skidding his
lumber and forbid their removing it. In
the meantime each party was trying to
get the best of the other by blocking the
roads and cutting down bridges until
Saturday,, December 20, when an injunc-
ton was served by the Heady party upon
the company. Clifford & circuit claim
