RECEIVERS VS.. PRESIDENT.
THE TRUE SITUATION CONCERNING
THE RUTLAND DIVISION.
Must Either Reduce the Rent or Take
Charge of tho Road-Have Brought
Suit Against tho c. v. Co. Hearing
in Brattleboro Tuesday.

St. Adams, May 1.-Some time since the
receivers of the Central Vermont railroad
notified the Rutland Railroad company
that beginning with the date of the re-
ownership, March goth, they would not
pay the eXorbitant rental named In the
terms of the lease and that the Rutland
Railroad company could take charge of
their road or let the Central Vermont
operate it, paying to the Rutland COM
pany the net earnings over and above
the operating expenses.
TO this proceeding the Rutland Railroad
officials objected and filed a petition with
the United States Court to compel tho re-
ceivers to pay the rental as the Central
Vermont company had done.
The hearing is set for Tuesday, May 5,
and will be before Judge Wheeler at Brat
tleboro. BY the orders of the court the
receivers have six months in which to
keep or cancel any lease that thoy are q
party to. 1t is common report that the
rental under the new lease Is altogether
too high and more than the Rutland road
could earn and without doubt this 1t wha,
has precipitated the present condition OF
affairs. 1t may be, however, a move on
the part of the Central to get satisfac-
tory reduction and the similar move OH
Mr.. Clements part for readjustment
