MOUNT VERNON-The action OF Judge Dykman,
at White Plains continuing the injunction restraining
the consolidation OF the Mount Vernon Water Com
pany and the New-York and Mount Vernon Water
Company with the New-lOgk City and Suburban Water
Company was gratifying to the Directing stockholders
OF the first company. The New York and Mount Yer
non Water Company's assets, it appears from the
papers. are about 1925 900, and 1t planned by
some Of the stockholders turn these to the new
compiny for the same amount in new bonds This,
the directors assert would be practically an arrange
ment similar to that which the organizers Of the Sugar
Trust attempted and which was declared by the
courts to be Illegal. 1t also asserted by the
plaintiffs I'm the suit that the NewYOrk City and
suburban Water Company formed for the sole
purpose OF swallowing up the other two companies;
that such a consolidation would destroy and prevent
competition in supplying water for Mount Vernon.
would create a monopoly. and deprive the plaintiffs
Of their stock In the original companies and greatly
dcpreciate the value thereof and would render q
Judgment Intellectual by the violation Of rights. An
other allegation, and more serious than the others,
was that the Ncw-York and Mount Vernon Water
Company had obtained from the village Of Mount
Vernon an exclusive grant TO erect and operate a
waterworlls within its present and future limits for
period OF twenty years and was seeding by the pro
posed act Of consolidation TO bind the village 10 TINS
exclusive right, contrary To the Constitution OF the
state. The Rev. Lewis r, streeter, the re-,
