SUES THE RAILROAD.
John r. Robinson " ants to Recover
LOng-Lost Shares.

LOng-LOSt Shares.
A sensational suit has been filed In the
Superior Court by John r. Robinson
against the Southern Pacific Company.
Robinson asks for an accounting from
the directors of the railroad, claiming that
ne was defrauded out of ten shares of stock
of the Central Pacific Company of 1877.
AT the time. it is stated, the stock was of
the value of 81, 200. Coo in cash. and 15.050
acres of land held in trust by the company,
of which the directors claimed private
ownership. Robinson sues for 81. zoe, 600,
with legal interest from April, 1877, and
15,050 acres Of land, or its equivalent in
money.
The plaintiff charges that while thu late
A. A. Cohen was supposed to be bitter
enemy of the railroad he was i'll reality
acting as its attorney and drawing yearly
salary of $4,000. While acting in that
capacity it is alleged that Cohen accepted
a retainer as legal adviser for Robinson iH
a suit against the load, and by this means
the plaintiff asserts that by various frauds
the directors have swindled him out OF the
earnings or his shares.
In the end Cohen notified Robinson that
the case had been compromised and the
stock was surrendered to the company,
who paid 1900 for it, Of this Robinson
received $500, the other half going to
Cohen as his fee. But in February last.
after Robinson's attention was called to
the testimony of Cohen and Stanford,
taken before the Pacific Railway Commis-
sion in 1887. he found out all about Cohen

railroad.

Namara's place as bailiff in Judge Camp
BELLS court yesterday. The judge trans
ferred the preliminary examination OF
Mcnamara to Judge Lows court because
he is witness in the case and is therefore
disqualified as Judge.
Attorney Long appeared before Judge
Low yesterday afternoon aud made an
application for bail on behalf of Nc
Namara. He quoted presidents, and said
he could get 5000 bail il necessary.
The Judge after listening patiently to
the attorney said that as no complaint had
been filed against Mcnamara. he could not
consider an application for bail. Judicially
he knew nothing of the prisoner or the
charge against him. When the complaint
was filed it would be time enough for the
question OF bail 10 be considered.
Mcnamara was in court in charge of
Policeman Barry. He was taken back to
the OLD City Prison.

yesterday that he would pay for Bash

quently learned that brother Of the de-
