OWNED A PARALLEL LINE.

And this defendant on information and
belief, charges that at the time of said
alleged purchase the said p'anttt owned
railroad on the opposite side of the
LaCkawaXen river, located between Lack
AWAKEN and Hawley, in the state of Penn
sylvania, fifteen and eiskt-seven one-hun-
dredths miles long, and not distant to
exceed from two hundred to eight hum
dred feet, at any point, from the canal
bed, works, etc, described in the first
paragraph of plaintiffs bill, and is paral-
lei thereto, and was competing line, and
the route of the plaintiffs railroad is al
most identical ith the route of the canal,
with the simple difference that they are
on opposite sides of the LaCkawaNen
river.
Our information ard belief as to the
ownership of the said railroad by the
plaintiff is founded on :hc declaration Of
the plaintiff as to its ownership Of said
railroad, contained in an agreement be-
tween the plaintiff and the defendant,
bearing date the 2SG day Of June, 1886.
And for further answer the defendant
says: THAT If the said declaration of
the plaintiff, as to its ownership of SAID
railroad, Is untrue, then We say that We
are informed, and believe the said rail-
road belongs to the Pennsylvania Coal
company, and that the said last named
company is the owner of Il very large ma,
jority of the capital stock of the Erie
and Wyoming Valley Railroad company,
and, virtually, controls the same And
the said the Erie and Wyoming VALLEY
Railroad company, being so owned and
controlled, has no right to purchase or
In any way control the parallel and CON.
peting canal lire of the Delaware and
Hudson company.

HAS NOT CLEAN HANDS.

And this defendant, showing to the
court that the plaintiff is not here with
clean hands further answering, says:
That the alleged branch line, surveyed
and located by the plaintiff, as alleged is
not projected for the purpose of increas-
ing its business and accommodating the
trade and travel of the public, but for
The purT osc of impairng the rights of
the defendant in certain contract be-
tween the plaintiff and the defendant
dated the 23d day of June, 1886, by the
terms of which the plaintiff leased TO tho
defendant its railroad, from Hawley to
LackawaXen, hereirbeforc described, for
the term Of twenty-five years, at an an
nual rental of fifty thousand dollars
which said contract this defendant prays
may be taken as a rart Of this answer.
And we further say: That If the said
branch line Is constructed, It will greatly
impair the rights of the defendant un-
der the contract between the plaintiff
and the defendant above mentioned, by
divertng from the read leased by the
plaintiff to the defendant a large amount
of transportation of persons and prop
erty, contrary To the true intent and
meaning of the contract so entered into
as aforesaid between tie plaintiff and the
defendant.
The hearing in the case is set down
for next Tuesday before Judge Purdy,
at Milford, Pike county.

bond to the Delaware and Hudson
company to indemnify It against any
possible damage that might accrue
NO RIGHT OF POSSESSION.
The Erie and Wyoming Valley COM
pany, it is averred, has no right of
possession to the premises under any
title or valid conveyance from the Del
aware and Hudson company, or any
other party, and has no standing ir
court to question the defendants right
to do or perform any of the acts al
legged in the plaintiffs bill to have been
done and performed by the defendant.
1t is admitted that the Delaware
and Hudson company had free pas
sage for its boats under the bridge
prior to the time of the alleged occu-
pancy of the whole premises by the
defendant. but the occupancy in ques
tion was without protest or objection
on the part of the Delaware and Hud-
son company.
The Erie's right to the premises, it is
claimed, is founded on an express
grant from Russell f. Ford and wife,
dated March 3, 1S4S, and by express
grant from the Delaware and Hudson
company dated May 1, 1S4S, both re-
corded in Pike county. Further the
defendant says:
That the premises and property de-
scribed in the first paragraph of the bill,
at the time of the alleged purchase and
acquisition thereof by the plaintiff. was
the canal bed, works and appurtenances
of public canal company, known as tho
Delaware and Hudson company, and was
n public highway, and so declared by
positive enactment Of the legislature Of
this mmonwealth That said canal, its
works and appurtenances 50 purchased
by the plaintiff, were unlIwfully pur-
chased by said plaintiff, and said pur
chase was an utter violation of section 4
of article u of the constitution of Penn,
sylVaria, wherein it is prescribed that
no railroad, canal or other corporation
shall lease or purchase thc works ard
franchises of, or in any way control, AIRY
other railroad or canal corporation own
ing or having unuer its control parallel
