Probably no road in this country has gone
into the hands of receiver which has been
more talked of than the Union Pacific.
Since built, many thousands of persons who
had little money have invested it in
Union Pacific stock or bonds, but in the
last few years the securities have changed
hands good deal. The Boston Journal
publishes lengthy interview with William
III. Ames, son of Ex-Governor Ames, of
Massachusetts, When Hon. Cakes Ames.

that time, two years after its incorpora-

danger OF breaking down." The only prac-
ucal result was a contract with one Hoxie

able TO execute his contract. Mr.. Ames
was then urged to take hold of the matter
himself, President Lincoln assuring him
that by building this road he would be-

generation. About a year later he de-

Company early in 1869.

THAT WEDDING PRESENT.
Judge CatIin Decides Against Mrs.
Eta lngham.
The Mother-in-Law VIII Hold the Dis.
puted House and Lot-The Court
Sums Up the Case.

Superior Judge Catlin rendered de-
cision yesterday in the suit of Eta E
Ingham VS.. Della r. Ingham. The decis-
ion is in favor of the defendant.
The suit was for the possession of a
house and lot, which both claimed. The
plaintiff is the divorced wife of Fred. Ing
ham, son OF the defendant, Della Ingham.
1t appears that when the young folks
were married the defendant gave them
the property in question. When the di-
vorce was contemplated Eta was IN
ddced to release the homestead to Fred s
mother, the understanding being that the
latter was to furnish money enough to
send Fred out of the State. The plaintiff
claimed that the deed she gave was
deed of trust, and that she understood
that the property was To be returned to
her as soon as Fred left. Mrs. Della
lngham, however, maintained that the
deed was an absolute one, and she is
backed up by her son.
The controversy" the court says, de
pends upon The fact whether the deed was
purchase Of the property in dispute and
an absolute conveyance thereof, or
whether it has, in fact, though absolute
and unconditional on its face, intended
" VIC lt1ktlGS W DG d gage OI Il ut0
in trust for the use and benefit of the
plaintiff The rule is that the evidence
should be clear and convincing in order
to subvert the legal effect Of a deed Of real
property. TO turn a deed, absolute on it's
face, into mortgage or into a deed of
trust for specified purposes is within the
power of Il court i'll equity. But common
reason, as well as the rules governing
courts, teach us that this power would be
dangerous If it were arbitrary and not
restrained by the rule above mentioned"
The court then goes on to say that in
the case at issue the testimony of the wit
nesses for the defendant was direct and
positive 10 the fact that the transaction
was an absoute and unconditional pur-
chase and conveyance of the property
without any design to create a trust or to
be used as mortgage. Opposed to this
was only the testimony of Eta Ingham,
that she understood; and as she avers
was agreed to on the part of Della Ing
ham, that the grantee was to create
trust for the benefit of herself and chill
dren. 1T is sufficient for the purposes of
this decision" says Judge Catlin, with
out burdening it with a review of the tes-
timony, to say that all the circumstances
developed by the testimony tend more
strongly to affirm that the deed expressed
the true intention of the parties, than
otherwise. 1t may be mentioned, how
ever, that the inadequacy of price Is al
legged as in strong circumstance against
the IDEA of a sale."

Miss Carrie Jeffrey Has Her Ear
Nearly Cut OF.
On Sunday night about midnight Sc
rious accident occurred to young lady,
who was very fortunate in not losing her
life.
Miss Carrie Jeffrey, who resides in the
alley between l. and NJ, Eighth and Ninth
streets, went with a young man named
George Johnson, after the concert at the
Plaza was over, to take buggy ride. AS
they were on their way home and near
the Pavilion of the State Agricultural So
clety at Fifteenth street, Johnson, being
partially blinded by the light OF an cleo
trio light under which they had passed,
ran into hack which met him in the
shade of the trees just beyond, smashing
his buggy and throwing Miss jeffrey,
who was on the side next the hack, under
its wheels.
The hack horses, being frightened,
tried to turn around, and two ladies in
the hack tried to jump out. The driver
restrained them, but i'll getting out one of
them fell, cutting herself over the eye.
1t is not known whether Johnson was
hurt or not, as he disappeared during the
confusion, but when Miss Jeffrey was
taken to her home and physician sum-
moned it was found that her ear was cut
almost completely off and hung by
small piece ofit; that her ueck and chest

She stated to RECORD UNION reporter
yesterday that she was thrown under the
buggy, the body being upon her, and that
she lay between the hack wheels, which
moved back and forth as the horses
tried to turn around. 1t seems almost
miracle that she was not killed outright.
DR.. c. B. Nichols, who was called,
sewed the ear on as best be could. it be-
ing very delicate and difficult bit of
surgery to perform, and it is hoped that
it may grow fast in its proper place.
She was resting easily last night, but
her bruises are very painful.
