THE la poRTE,s pEBTs.

The suit of A. j. Tulock against the
Galveston. La Porte and Houston Railway
company is receiving more attention now
than any other case that burdens the
docket Of the Federal court. Four inter
ventions We're filed today and as they re-
quire no service they are all In time 10 Dc
considered at the approaching term of the
court, which begins here next Monday.
Those filed today are as follows.
That of Wallis, Landes a. Co. OF Gal
weston, alleging that the railway company
delivered TO petitioner its promissory note
for $500 on April 25 1895, and TO secure
the payment OF same placed in the nands
of petitioner fifteen of the first mortgage
bonds OF the company, with full power TO
sell or assign them on the non payment or
the promissory note when due. That the
bonds are now held by petitioners as col
lateral security for the payment of the
note That no part of the promissory noia
has ever been paid. Petitioners pray that
they be allowed to intervene, and that their
claim be audited, allowed and ordered 10 be
paid by the receivers. and that their lien
on the bonds be established and forecloseh,
and that the bonds be sold by order OF the
court in payment and satisfaction OF their
claim. In the exhibit attached TO the pc
tition appears the following Endorsement:
'"The Galveston and Western Railway com-
pany guarantees the payment OF the within
note"
w. l.. Moody & Co. filed intervention In
the same suit of the same tenor. and Tor
the same amount ts7500) as in the above.
The exhibit shows the following indorse-
ment: "The Galveston and Western Rail
way guarantees the payment OF the wltniii
note, protest waived"
~ T. Wilson also filed an intervention
in the same case. He alleges that he re-
covered a Judgment in Justices court
against the Galveston, La Porte and Hous-
ION railway for si25, and asks that his
cIslin be declared a prior one and entitled
to precedence in payment over that OF the
other creditors.
The Galveston Publishing company also
filed an intervention in the same case, al
leging that the Galveston La Porte and
Houston Railway company is indebted Il
it in the sum of $l1Gs0.
