Washington Yesterday electromagnetic
,bS Washington and Arlington Rail
wgy Company. Its troubles seem like
~ 10 occupy for some time both the

way company, qualified, gave bond and
,o6k possession of the entire railway
stock in Alexandria county. Yester-
day afternoon a bill was Gled against

ner Engineering Company, the Edison
General Electric Company, the ID. c..
Bril- Company and the firm Of Pebber
4 Register, who enter a general credi-
tors' bin on behalf of all who desire 10
ioin in the suit.
The bill sets out that the railway be-
can operations about October l, 1892,
and paid its running expenses during
the first month, but on the commence
mcnt of the winter season ceased to De
renumerative and was not operated
during the winter, the few cars which
had run on the road being left stand
ing on the tracks, exposed to the
weather, without shed or shelter; that
in the spring of this year the railway
vas again operated from the Aqueduct
bridge to Arlington, the motive power
being electricity, furnished by a wire
run over the A%queduct bridge, the
power plant being in the District of
Columbia that the road is now barely
paving running expenses. its debts are
accommodating and the company is Gu
tirely ~iusolvent, without credit or pros
poets. The compliments, who hold
bonds of the company ask that these
bonds be declared alien on the proper
erty of the company that a receiver
be appointed to take possession of the
property in the District, and by sale
realize money to pay The debts due the
compliments.
