VICTORY FOR The RING
The Nassau Company Can Grid
iron Brooklyn with Trolleys.
Justice Brown Decides that the
Flynn Franchise Is Good.
He Refuses to Grant an Order for
an Injunction.

A decision by Justice Brown, handed
down in the Supreme Court, Brooklyn,
this morning, practically permits the
Nassau Electric Railroad Company 70
proceed with the work Of gridironing
the city with thirty-two miles more of
he deadly trolley.
On June 10. 1898. the ring Board of
,ldermen and Mayor Body granted a
"anchise TO the Nassau Company. of
which Patrick II. Flynn is President
and several other prominent Democratic
politicians directors The franchise per-
nits the Company to put down its
tracks in nearly every section of the
4 'ity, principally in Union street.
!. The Union Street Railroad Company,
" which Reuben Leland is President,
bid for the same franchise.
The Nassau Company agreed to nav 9
per cent. on the gross earnings of the
road, and the Union Street Company
made an offer which would aggregate
about $250,000 for the entire franchise.
terms.
On June 4 last application was made
by John Adamson, as a taxpayer, for a
temporary injunction restraining the
Nassau Company from operating under
its franchise. James C. Church op-
posed the application.
Justice Brown. In his decision. says:
without expressing any opinion upon
the merits of the controversy, I think
the case Is not one In which a temporary
injunction should be granted and the
motion must be denied: The action is
by a taxpayer who seeks to prevent a
waste OF the funds of the city.
1T is not claimed that the railroad
ought not to be constructed on the
streets mentioned 1t Is not claimed
that the proposed method of construc-
tion is Illegal. Nor is 1t claimed that
the action Of the Common Council and
Mayor in granting the franchise was IL
legal.
1.-The burden Of the complaint Is to the
effect that the defendants were unduly
favored over the Union Street Railway
Company. Electricity as a motive power
Is not complained Of
THE judgment and discretion Of the
municipal authorities Is not subject to
the review of the courts in the ab-
sence OF proof of fraud. and that ques-
ton, unless II Is perfectly clear upon
the moving papers, should not be de-
termined upon affidavits, but left to be

ports was imposed. The Japanese Min
lister accepted the principle of the prop

Later. the King yielding, the Japanese
Government appointed three Commits

imposed by the Japanese Government in
