IN MORE TROUBLE.
The San Mateo Railroad
Sued Again.
Foreclosure Suit of the California
Title and Trust Company-A
Receiver Appointed.

The San Francisco and San Mateo Elec-
tric Railroad Company is now in a worse
plight than ever. 1t has now passed from
the hands of the Sheriff to a receiver,
pending a newly filed suit for foreclosure
of a mortgage of its whole property.
The suit is entitled the California Title
Insurance Company against the San Mateo
road and several persons of the name of
Mahoney. judgment creditors under a
damage suit against the road. which was
recently decided in their favor by jury
in Judge Hunts court to the extent of
$4,000, and in execution of which judg-
ment Sheriff McDade has been in possess
sion If the road for the past two weeks.
The complaint states that in July, 1891,
the San Mateo COMPANY executed HOO
bonds of $1,000 each, called the 6 per cent
sinking fund first mortgage gold bonds.
TO each bond was attached sixty interest
coupons. The bonds were made payable
on May Is, 1898, at the Offices of the Cali
| fornia Title and Trust Company, where
| also the interest coupons were payable on
! May 10 of each year.
/ 1t is stated that the defendant company

coupons bv the execution of mortgage to

property, etc, of the railroad. The mort
gage was executed by Behrend Joost as
president, and J..W. Aartzell. secretary,
| of the company.
! Matters went on all right until May Is.
| 1S93 when the bondhoders of 300 of the
! bonds presented ia vain their interest
coupons for payment. The railroad had
| defaulted in payment, and so according to
law the whole principal and interest of
| these 100 bonds became due forthwith.
| The plaintiff states that on May 10 of this
present year it is highly probable that
many more, If not all of the coupon hold
ers will present their coupons for payment
and in view of the circums ances it is asked
that foreclosure of the mortgage be had,
and receiver be appointed to take charge
of the property, who shall also act as
trustee for the unfortunate sbondholders.
1t is represented that there is at present
an execution levied on the railroad by the
Mahoney family, pursuant to their judg-
ment for damages, and an injunction is
asked restraining the Sheriff from proceed
ing with the execution.
The parties interested went before Judge
Seawell yesterday afternoon, upon filing
the complaint, and SANFORD Bennett was
appointed temporary receiver, under

that of the other directors In the colony.
According TO his explanation they took
the concern out of HlDbard's hands and
became responsible for it. ''We took one
share each when Hibbard organized the
company, but afterward things got into
such a bad shape he went into insolvency
and we had to step in to save the colony
and our regulations. We got him out first,
then reorganized and issued new stock.
Chisholm has this stock, not what he got
from Hibbard, because that was void ami
valueless. How he paid for his first stock
we don't know beyond what he says, nor
does it cut any figure now. as the COM
pany is responsible, and the stock
is worth much more than its face
value. When Attorney-General Clarke
and Ex-Governor Kincaid of Nevada
came to Oakland and asked to
do something for the Nevada stockholders,
who put S25, 900 into the colony. then l
put in $4,000 of my own money. and as
much more was subscribed by Messrs.
O'Brien and Watson, and the Nevada
people put up more money. We have ex-
pended $4,000 on the ranch and will have
our first crop this year. | am glad to be
able to say the colony will be great sue

peaches and prunes, all coming into bear
ing. There are two artesian wells with
flow of 1000, 900 gallons day. The super
intendent receives a salary of S400 month
to manage the property.
About Mr.. Chisholm, he came to me
and told his story. / offered to advance
him mouey on his stock, but required Sc
curity, which he would not give. l would
buy his stock, or his wife's stock rather,
for its face value if he would give me
deed. But that he declined to do. Now
we assumed these responsibilities TO help
out such poor people as Chisholm, who
had been got into the colony by Hibbard.
But they have all paid their assessments
with the exception of Chisholm, who can
not keep paying. We expect that the first
years crop will pay dividend.
