Judge Gaynor's Opinion.
BROOKLYN, Jan. 26.-The following is
synopsis of Judge Gaynor's opinion
handed down Thursday morning in the
matter of the application of Joseph
Loader for a mandamus to compel the
Brooklyn Heights Railroad company
to operate their lines. He decides that
a writ shall issue and has set 10 o'clock
to-day as the time TO hear counsel of
both sides as to whether the writ shall
be peremptory or an alternative one
Judge Gaynor says:
1.-THE railroad company is not in the posi-
ton OF a mere private individual or company,
carrying on business for private gain, which
may suspend business temporarily or per-
manently at pleasure. On the contrary,
it has dual relation public relation
to the people Of the state and
private one to it's stockholders. It must
not be forgotten here, though it may seem to be
growing dim If not wholly forgotten elsewhere
that IN it's chief aspect 1t is a public corpora
tions having duties to perform to the public
which transcend any obligation which In its
private aspect 1t owes to its stockholders. It
has received franchises of great value from the
state and has conferred upon 1t the states
transcendant power of eminent domain. In
return it took upon itself the performance of
public duties and functions, in the perform
ance Of which it is, in law and in fact, not an
independent individual or entity, but
Though these principles are very old
and inherent In the idea OF tho
sovereignty of the people, 1t would seem that
in the recent rapid growth OF corporate power
and of the tendency to use public franchises
for the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of individuals first
and for the benefit of the public second, they
have come to be somewhat overlooked and
eed to be restated."

rights of the company to employ labor,
but says if they cannot obtain men at

of the Banking Committee.
WASHINGTON, Jan 26.-The details
of the amended financial plan which
Messrs. Springer and Cox and two or
three other members of the banking
committee are discussing with Secre-
tary Carlisle were learned Thursday.
The most radical of the new PROPOSE
tions for which Mr.. Cox stands sponsor
is that for the coinage of silver. A
synopsis of the main points in the meas
ure follows:
1t contemplates the cancellation OF the Sher-
man notes when received at the treasury and
the issue Of silver certificates in denomina-
tions of 81, So and 49, or OF silver dollars, If the
receivers prefer To back these silver certifi-
Gates 1t is proposedto coin all the bullion in the
treasury, which, including S54000,000 seignior-
age, amounts to sls1 100000 1t is calculated
that not more than S40O00.000 can be coined in
a year. The changes in the banking features
of the plan provide that while the banks shall
hold the same reserve now required, one-half
shall be in legal-tender greensacks or Sher-
man notes.
