 of these beautiful instruments which he is at all times delighted to show and explain their merits over other instruments.

This order is strictly in line with the following resolution passed by the City Council on the 9th day of June, 1895,
 Be ii. resolved by the City Coun- cil of the city of Pine Bluff, that it is the sense of this Council that such payments for the present water service should be made as directed before the courts before whom the litigation between the Water < Light Go. and the city of Pine Bluff is now pending consistent with due and proper protection to the city, with reference to it's exist ing rights and contracts and it's dif- ferences hereunder J
 In September, 1894, the city filed a suit in the U. s. Court, against the Water x Light Company The defendants filed 8 demurrer to the complaints. The demurrer was argued by the attorneys tor the city and Water X Light Company. Judge Williams, after hearing these argu- ments took the case under advise ment. However, before his decision was rendered, the Water < Light people went before Judge Henry c. Caldwell, of the U $. Circuit Court, and had the Water & Light plant thrown into the hands of Receiver, evidently fearing that the decision of Judge Williams would be in favor of the city.
 There the matter had rested. The Council refused to allow the accounts of the Receiver, fearing that if it did so that the courts would hold that it was waiver of the rights of the city in the case pending between the City and the Water & Light Company By this older Judge Caldwell has settled this point; and the city will now pay the comapny for water rental from the 14th of November, 1894, until the present time, which, in round numbers, is about $5, GOO. This, according to the order of Judge Caldwell, is without prejudice to the city's rights Should the suit terminate in favor of the city, the Water < Light Company will be forced to refund this sum, as well as all moneys the city may pay into the hands of the Receiver until such decision is made. There is every reason to believe that Judge Williams will render his decision at an early day.
 It should be borne in mind that final relief on the water question cannot be had until the determina- tion of the original suit before Judge Williams, as the city is not a party to the suit before Judge Caldwell, and can obtain only temporary relief in that case. The principal result ol the trip to St. Paul is the securing of authority to settle present diff ferences without prejudice to the city's rights, and the assurance of a speedy determination of the original case upon it's merits.

City Attorney Fred M Hudson has returned from St. Paul, where in company with D. 0. Bell, he had been to represent the interest of the
 city before Judge Henry O. Caldwell
 in the controversy between the Water & Light Company and the city. After hearing the statements
 of the representatives of the city and
 the Water and Light Company
 Judge Caldwell issued the following order.
 U. S. CIRCUIT COURT,
 EASTERN DISTRICT ARKANsAs WESTERN DISTRICT, New York Security and Trust Co.,, Compain- ants,
 Pine Bluff Water Gas x Electric Light Co, Defendants.
 Comes the Receiver in this case, by
 H. D. Wood and F. G. Bridges, his solicitor and certain motions and
 petitions coming on for hearing and
 the court being now we'll and suffi-
 ciently advised in the premises. It is ordered that the Receiver in
 this case furnish full fire pressure
 in case of fire and pressure sufficient
 for domestic purposes as required by
 contract between the defendant in
 this case and the city. And said lefty, on its part, is required to pay
 said Receiver in this case, until the further order of this court in the premises. But said payment is not
 to be taken as any admission by the
 city that it is legally liable to pay
 said rents, or as any waiver of any
 rights or forfeiture it now has, or may hereafter have under its con- tracts with said defendant. And particularly said payment is in no
 manner to effect the rights of the city in this suit now pending in the U. s. Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas, wherein City of Pine Bluff is plaintiff and the Pine Bluff Water Gas & Electric Light Co. is defendant. But said suit is to progress and be tried and deter mened in all respects as though no payment of said rental had been made and said payment is not held or treated as waiver of any of the lcitys rights in that case or in any bother suits now or hereafter pend ing Signed.
