Court House News.

Attorneys are now preparing record
of the case of Luman A. Andrews vs..
The +. A, & w. X. X. company ct al.
This record will he used in the ac-
tion commenced in New York by Re
cciver Frank II. Waters to recover
from the Central Trust company. II
is alleged that the company was IL
stakeholder of the corporation owning
the railroad and that it is liable on
the assessment levied against the
stockholders.
In this county Judgment for $780,
$40 was secured against the company
i 1t refused to pay the same alleging
that it was not n party TO the action
and that II had never been served with
summons in the ease. Receiver Wat
ers Is prepared to prove that it yolun-
tarily appeared in the action. He
has evidence TO show that the COM
phny wrote to n local attorney, re-
questing him to get lcnvc to file an an
swcr and cross-petition. The court
granted the prayer and journal en-
try was prepared showing this fact.
i Neither the journal entry nor the an
swcr were ever filed. The failure of
, the Trust company to do this does not
make any difference. 1t is claimed
that it became n party to the action as
soon as II filed n pleading.
There Is a story In connection with
this action which has never been made
known. The Trust company original
ly held n judgment against McCracken
& Sempic, the contractors who built
the road. They We're unable to pay
the same. After waiting some time
FOR the money the Trust company dc,
cided TO accept $2,500,O0O in u. A. "
w stock In full settlement of its claim.
This was at II time when it looked MS
though the stock would be worth some
thing, II turned ont otherwise. Be
fore the Judgment was taken against
it, the Trust company had disposed of
the stock. It h alleged by the receiver
that the stock was transferred to IN
block. He Immediately sold ii 10
\ other parties. 1t is the claim of the
plaintiff that these transfers were
made for the purpose of hiding the
identity of the real owner of the
stocks.
| AS soon as the record is proven by
} the receiver the Trust company Will
be forced to pay the judgment,
