PRIORITY OF RAILROAD CLAIMS.
Judge Baker Lays Down a Doctrine
in Regard to Them.

Judge Baker yesterday rendered a written
opinion deciding against the petition of
George Clarke, executor of Augustian
Clarke, who had interviewed in the receiv-
ership proceedings of the Louisville. Evans
vile q St. Louis Railroad Company with a
petition to have a Judgment for $1,000
against the road on account of Augustian
Clarke's accidental death made a preferred
claim, prior TO the lien of the mortgages.
The defendant company had obtained q
supersedeas from the Supreme Court, with
d. J. Mackey on the appeal bond. Mackey
afterward became insolvent. In the course
of his opinion Judge Baker laid down the
following doctrine in regard to the priority
of railroad claims. which will prove of
large interest 10 railroad attorneys and Sc
curity holders:
1.-The law of it's creation and the nature
OF its business necessarily require that a
railroad should be maintained as a going
concern by running its trains and serving
the public as a common carrier. The duty
is of legal obligation and is of the essence
of its rights TO corporate existence. The
purchase of supplies, the employment of
labor and the making of repairs and of
suitable traffic arrangements are indispens-
able, necessary to enable the railroad to
perform its public duties. Credit is essen
tial to secure the property and service re-
quired TO keep it In operation. Some courts
have placed the right TO charge the eX-
penses on the income. and. if necessary. on
the corporate property itself, in preference
TO the mortgage Indebtedness, on the
ground that the supplies, labor. repairs and
traffic arrangements so TO the betterment
of the mortgaged property. This ground
seems unsatisfactory because IL often hap
+ pens that no such betterment results. and II
such result occurs it would be an unsound
and dangerous doctrine 10 hold hat the
expense incurred In improving the mort
gagged estate can be recouped oGs OF the
mortgages security. No one ought to be
improved out OF his mortgage security
without his consent. Our courts place the
doctrine upon the theory of implied consent.
The argument is that the m%ortgagee has
taken his security with the knowledge that
tho railroad must be kept In operation. and
therefore he will be presumed TO have inn
pliCdly agreed that the expenses necessarily
incurred in maintaining il as a going con-
corn shall have "A preference in aymen
over his mortgage Indebtedness. IL is not
quite apparent how a mortgagee can he
held TO an implied consent in the face Of his
: mortgage. which, In express terms. grants

BIG FOUR IMPROVEMENTS
TRACKS BETWEEN NORTH BEND
AND CINCINNATI TO BE RAISED.
Commissioners Blanchard Suggests
Changes in Mileage Book-Import-
ant Exchnnge-Order Ruling

Yesterday an extensive Improvement to
the tracks of the Big Four between North
Benz and Cincinnati was commenced. IL is
height that Will prevent the river giving
the road trouble until il reaches a stage of
s~ixty-three feet. This means the raising
of the tracks much of the distance three
feet. A steam shovel was yesterday put
at work at Valley Junction. and construc-
ton trains put on to distribute the dirt and
ballast necessary to raise the tracks as
proposed. In a short time another steam
shovel will be put at work at Riverside, and
in moving this dirt two improvements Will
be carried out which will be of great bene-
ft to the road. 1t is proposed to remove
so much of the hill at Riverside as will ad-
NIT of removing the two main tracks close
10 the Hill and having the side-yard tracks
systematized on the south side instead OF
on the north side, as now arranged. Next
week the company will receive five miles
of heavy steel rail, which is TO he placed
on the Guilford hill. and each month the
road will receive five miles Of new steel
rail until the order placed a short time ago
by President ingalls, is filed. The next i'm
provement will be to lay a steel rail be-
tween indianapolis and Zionsville weighing
eighty pounds to the yard, taking up the
present rails. which weigh sixty pounds to
the yard. When this shall have been done
the road from Cincinnati to Kankakee Will
be laid with rail weighing eighty pounds to
the yard. With the improvement between
North Bend and Cincinnati completed,
Chief Engineer kittridge thinks the COM
pany will have little il any trouble from

Complaint of Chicago shippers.

No decision was arrived at yesterday by
the board of administration of the Western
Freight Association in the demand of the
transportation committee of the Chicago
Board OF Trade that rates from transmits
sissippi points to points in the East be
eQualized as between Chicago and st. Louis.
A full hearing was had and the case was
taken under Amusement. The complaint of
the shippers is based on the fact that rates
through st. Louis and other Mississippi
river gateways are from IL TO 4 cents lower
than those through Chicago. Should the
board OF administration deny the request
for an equalization of rates the shippers
will appeal TO the lnterstate-commerce
Commission. They say they will keep up
the light till they win or no further re-
source Is left them.

matter of township warrants. The case
was that of Samuel j. Snoddy against the

not preclude the township from proving
that the goods were not delivered. or from
proving in court the actual and true value
of the goods for which the note was given.

Afidavits for a change of venue of the

against him excited and infiamed by pub
locations in the daily papers-particularly
those in the Indianapolis Journal and the
indianapolis News. all of which publica-

No Injustice Intended.

p. III. Blue. general manager of the In
diana & Illinois Southern, says that that
line suffered considerable damage by the
recent floods. but was able within three
days to get trains out on each end of the
road. The road has been repaired and
trains started through again and they are
making good time. The line has been very
fortunate during the floods. and has run
steam shovel at work; also, construction
trains, and has not had a single accident.
There will, Of course. be some more work
to do before things are in as good shape
as they were, but the road is prepared TO
handle any business which comes to il
prompty and anticipates no further delay.
Mr.. Blue adds: Il see that the Journal
gives all the credit for this good work TO
the Illinois Central, which is hardly justice,
In view of the hard work we did to get the
road in condition for doing business, and
accomplishing IL all without any loss Of
life or damage to equipment"

Several Pompton ana Little Falls Houses
Robbed within Three Days.

PATERSON, N. j., March 15.-Several bur
glaries were committed last night in tho village
OF Little Falls, about four miles from here. The
first entered was the house of Isaac Smith on
Lincoln avenue. Two gold watches, some money,
and a number Of small articles were taken. The
thieves entered through a rear window.
After leaving Mr.. Smiths home, the thieves
went down Main street to the residence Of DR..
Edgar A. Keller. DR.. Keeler is an invalid and
keeps his rooms lighted until a late hour. Ono
of the robbers entered the house by a back win
dow and went to the doctors room. Tho other
rang the front door bell in order to arouse DR..
Synott, who has charge of DR.. Keeler's practice,
and send him on a pretended call. Mrs. Keller.
however, was awakened by the man who had
entered the room, and her cries caused him to
flee. As he dashed out Of the house the robber
who was talking with DIR. Synott at the door
saw him and he also fed. Mrs. Keller had a
good view of the one who entered her room, and
rang the bell.
The house of John Roome, station agent for
the Greenwood Lake Railroad Company at Little
Falls, was also visited, but the thieves were
frightened away by the barking of Mr.. Roome's
dogs.

Falls. At one OF the houses in Pompton they
used chlorotorm. Mrs. Keeler says the man

houses were entered by lifting the catch OF rear
windows.
