A BILL in EQUITY FILED
BY Stockholders Of the New York
and New England.
WANT TO lNvALlDATE A LEASE.
They Claim The New York and New
England Lease Was Not Properly Me-
gotIated and Ask to Have Things set
Back Where They Were.

There has been filed in the Supreme
Court a bill in equity, brought by
Nathaniel 4. Goldsmith ct al. against the
New York and New England Railroad
Company wherein the plaintiffs pray that
the lease OF the PROVIDENCE and Spring
field Railroad Company to the New York
and New England Railroad Company
effected In October, 1890 may be- declared
null and void. and of no effect, on the
ground that the lease was effected In an
underhanded manner.
The plaintiffs and stockholders in the
New York and New England Railroad
Company, while the defendants are GER
tain directors of the same company,
who, it is claimed, ut sometime
during the year 1890 agreed with
each other to purchase the capital stock
of the PROVIDENCE nnd Springfield Rail-
road Company. at price very much less
than the par value thereof, and
thereby to acquire control Of the
said corporation. and by their
position as directors Of the New York
and New England Railroad, to cause said
road TO take lease for long term OF
years of all the property OF the PRovI-
DENcE and Springfield Railroad Com
pany.
It's claimed that they then took means
to acquire In their own names
all, or very great majority OF
the shares of the PROVIDENCE and
Springfield Railroad Company at prices
very much less than the par value there
OF.
The bill was filed July 5th and sub
pPnaed, and is returnable the first Mon
day in August. 1892

THE TOWN NOT LIABLE.
The Supreme Courts Decision in a
Johnston Case.
IT is REGARDING A HIGHWAY.
A Town I'm Its Corporate Capacity Has
No Power to Lay Ont = Highway and
Cannot be Held Respensible = The
Council Not Agents.

In the Supreme Court this morning o
rescript was handed down sustaining the
demurrer of the town OF Johnston to the
ruling Of the court in the case Of Anthony
Smart against that town.
The bill is brought against the town Of
Johnston to restrain 1t from proceeding
TO lay out certain street; for an account
as to changes already done and for general
relief, but IL does not show that the
town In its corporate capacity has taken
any steps In the matter of the layout and
other proceedings complained of. On the
contrary il shows that all of said proceed
ings have been taken by the town council
Of said town, their officers and servants.
And 10 Is clear that under the provis-
ions of Public Statute X L., chap. "a, o
town in it's corporate capacity has no
power TO lay out, alter or establish q
highway. but that such power Is conferred
exclusively upon the town council, and
that over their action in this matter the
town has no control and cannot be held
responsible at any rate for their unsu-
thorized acts"
Moreover, town councils are not the
agents or servants Of the towns they rep
resent IN the ordinary legal meaning of
the term, in the laying out Of highways,
but they are public officials, forming an
important part OF the government,
powers, and charged with certain
well defined duties by the statute
law of the State. For any abuse
of these powers and for any failure in the
performances of these duties they are
fable like any other public officials.
The complainant, therefore. has no
ground upon which to base this suit. the
party who caused the damage COM
plained OF according to his own showing
being the town council Of said town, its
officer and strvants, and not the town
itself.
Upon these grounds the court is of the
opinion that the demurrer should be sus-
tained.n
The demurrer to the bill In the case of
Rodney Il. Dyer VS.. the Cranston Print
Works Co. was overruled.
